how about NOT MAKING US PAY TO SEE THE LYRICS

[alexsuckmy]

add the lyrics back.

honestly, this update is the worst one u guys have ever done. like, why the **bleep** are lyrics being removed for free users? u guys will fr lose more and more users every day rather than making money from ur "brilliant" idea. i mean, really, what made you believe that by taking away the lyrics for free users, you guys will start making more money💀? like, cmon, ive been loyal to yall for more than 5 years or smt. jst bring the lyrics back, n yall will do a favor to all of us free users. its not too much to ask for anyway, like fr, who would pay for premium "just" to have access to the lyrics? its literally nonsense

taking away stuff people had before makes people want to leave the site.

3 motivi  per mettere i testi gratis

1. La gente non farebbe più foto ai testi
2. Non tutti potrebbero permettersi il premium
3.  La gente canterebbe meglio con le parole meglio

@malxmal,

The radio is an alternative. 

Count the good, weigh it out, and I think there’s plenty to appreciate.

@neen,

I can’t imagine that providing lyrics doesn’t cost Spotify any money. They don’t appear magically, and I’m sure they made a business decision not motivated by animosity. 

You have a right to express your opinion, so more power to you. I’d encourage you to put the power into your own hands, though, by either paying for these things you value, or recognize that anything that is free could be fleeting.

Spotify and its new premium lyrics scheme.

Why should Spotify lyrics be free?
See, lyrics are a core part of every single song. Making them premium only for the sole reason to make users pay for Spotify seems a bit much, no? Users of Spotify understand that you may want to push us to pay for premium but if you were to carry on with this then every feature would end up being a premium only option. I ask kindly that you consider my points and make lyrics available for all users, free and premium.

     -Points to consider-

1. Better Vibes for All: Lyrics should be free for everyone on Spotify, not just premium users. It's all about enhancing the music journey for everyone! (this can be pull for non Spotify users)

2. Stay Ahead of the Game: Other platforms are offering lyrics for free, and this may become a push away for us Spotify users, right?.

3. Show friends the features: Sharing lyrics gets people talking and can help non Spotify users to consider using this wonderful music app and maybe then they might actually pay for Premium.

4. It isn't reasonable: Lyrics help Spotify and their users, there are millions of users who would appreciate the return of lyrics. There are conversations talking about how it isn't completely reasonable to suddenly make lyrics premium only, right?

5. Other points: Song owners dont make their lyrics pay only, so why should Spotify? Pay. Hear me out with this one, many users of Spotify just cant afford to buy premium and now that a core feature of Spotify is gone users may leave too..
   All in all, I ask kindly that Spotify considers my points and maybe we can bring back lyrics for all users including those who cant pay for premium, Thank you very much for allowing this Idea to reach Spotify's amazing community and Team 🤍

Completely agree! PLEASE get rid of the lyrics limit for Spotify Free users completely!!! ESPECIALLY the (and I had to do some digging to find this info because they’re not forthright about it) FIVE SONG monthly lyrics limit. It was bad enough when seemingly the majority of songs’ lyrics were “unavailable” or “couldn’t load”, now this??? This is absolutely ridiculous and honestly unacceptable. It makes Spotify unusable. If this doesn’t change and they don’t bring all the lyrics back I’m leaving Spotify for good and taking everyone I know with me, and we will change to another music service that will at least allow us to read the lyrics to the songs we’re listening to for free.

This.

Perhaps it was a decision made by Spotify's investors, and they couldn't think of a better alternative in time.

[fdshfg]

spotify is going to make us pay to open the app soon😭🙏

[realausome]

Agreed. This is stupid and another reason to start using YouTube Music.
