Ability to select and copy artist, album and song title as text

[hgross407]

Especially useful for non-English titles, but give the option to select and copy the artist, album or title of a song as text.

Not being able to copy text is also a very bad from the usability point of view. This is a must have to properly interact with an app.

For anyone who listens to music in any language apart from English - this is a must have! I can't believe they feel this is a "feature" and not just a bug. Why block text selection and make a walled garden? In today's day and age information should flow freely. I may want to look up an artist, read more about them, do zillions of other things that I am now restricted to until I can actually type it out. If I listen to a song in Russian or Japanese with some non-English alphabet, it is nearly impossible to do it without a very round-about way.
I don't think this is something only "power-users" would need.

It is very useful to be able to copy the song title or the artist name, or any similar kind of text, in the spotify desktop client.

Currently the client makes this impossible, I've looked everywhere, and it's not possible to copy any of this text. Not even when launching spotify in the web browser!

I listen to a lot of asian music that has different characters than latin ones so rewriting those characters with a latin keyboard is not possible for me. Being able to copy those characters and paste into search engine like youtube for videos, google for other entries, or social media, is very beneficial.

AT LEAST make it possible in "Show credits" when right clicking on song! plzzz...

I want to copy title and artist name of a song. Because I reach its lyrics and/or translate lyrics in my language.
