As of version 8.8.20.544 and the version prior to that has caused the lyrics from my personal playlist in my device 'Samsung-SMJ250F' to disappear, at first I thought it was brcause the songs were old but way older songs still had lyrics
The playlist is a private playlist featuring all songs of 'DragonForce'
and after the update none of the songs had lyrics.
Hey folks,
Thanks for posting about this here in the Community.
Please note that the availability of the Lyrics feature and the lyrics themselves can vary over time, as well as between markets, and depending on the agreements we have in place with our rights holders. We add new content to Spotify every day, so if you can’t find something right now, it may appear (or reappear) soon.
We hope this helps!
Cheers,
Well if it disappeared from youtube music aswell, it probably has something to do with legal reasons like the rights to have the lyrics. It doesn't make a lot of sense to me as why such thing would imply that lyrics should not be available but that moderator dodged the question like it was a bullet lol

My Question or Issue
Some time ago, I noticed that on some songs, I got the message "Couldn't load the lyrics for this song. Try again later". I am 100% sure that they were available before, and I noted also that it was not the message "You caught us, we're still working on getting lyrics for this one", or any messages for musics with unknown lyrics.
I can give 2 example is case it helps :
- Styx Helix from Myth & Roid
- Mayday, from coldrain
I also checked if the lyrics were actually on Musixmatch, and they were indeed.
Thanks to anyone who has a solution for this 🙂
Hi there @fabifly,
Thanks for reaching out. Could you please provide us the following:
With this information, we’d be happy to investigate.
Keep us posted.
Hi,
The problem happens on every device I am logged on (smartphone too)
I don't remember when it started, but it's been at least several months
I always get this message on every music it appeared on, and never went away.
You can find a video of 3 songs including one with the loading error message here : https://imgur.com/a/Rk03g8Q
The first song works fine, the second get the problem, and the third don't have lyrics on spotify.
I hope I answered with the info you wanted ^^
Bring back lyrics instead of “about artist” and “live events”
Hi @fabifly,
Thanks for getting back to us.
We're afraid we couldn't watch the screen recording you sent for security reasons. Could you try again? You can attach it to your next response by using the Insert Video option in the post editor. You can also upload it to Google Drive and share the link with us (make sure the video has the permissions for anyone to see it).
On another note, could you send us the URI of the songs you mentioned? We'll take a closer look.
Note that lyrics may not be available on all songs on Spotify. New lyrics are added every day, so you may find it added in the future.
We'll be on the lookout.

My Question or Issue
Hi ! for a couple days I noticed that lyrics aren’t showing anymore, I tried to listen to other music but none are showing the lyrics, however my brother spotify does show the lyrics. I tried multiple times to uninstall the app and emptying the cache, but nothing happened. Please help me it’s really annoying…
Thanks you for your help.
Hi,
Sorry for the video, I didn't think about that 😅 Here is a Google Drive link (the file is too heavy to put it here) : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SzOMY4CxGmduEPEvR-7OoT1XdW7oF0vB/view?usp=sharing
Also, here are the URIs for the 2 examples I provided :
https://open.spotify.com/track/376H9fw1l6spwIfiNSDBmJ?si=46cf43be29cc4166
https://open.spotify.com/track/2wJJNgD6GrKoQ435VxTRv6?si=9c01061301ec4e4c
I am 100% sure that the lyrics for these songs were available at some point, so I don't think the issue is that the lyrics are not available. You can see in the video the difference between the lyrics unavailable and the lyrics loading error.
Thanks
i think you should add lyrics to eminem- mockingbird, The real Slim Shady, Superman, Without Me.
I'm using the mobile app for Android, and for many songs the lyrics were replaced with an "About the Artist" section with no option for view lyrics anymore.
Myself and many others on the forum would rather see the lyrics than the "About the Artist" section. Please reinstate the lyrics as default, or at least show both widgets instead of outright replacing the lyrics section.

My Question or Issue
Onde antes ficava o recurso “letras” agora só se encontra a opção “sobre o artista” e “merchandising”. Já fiz de tudo pra tentar achar letras, atualizei, desinstalei, reiniciei meu celular. O recurso letras não se encontra disponível apesar de quando eu pesquisar o Spotify me informar através dos seus canais que esse recurso ainda existe. Estou frustrado 😢
I'm facing the same issue too. Looking for solution to this
estava com mesmo problema, tinha começado hoje.. mesmas configurações que vc de telefone e OS. atualizei o Spotify e voltou ao normal.
Hey @fabifly,
Thanks for getting back to us and apologies for the delayed reply.
Lyrics may not be available on all songs. New lyrics are added every day, so you may find it added in the future.
Hope you'll find this useful. Take care 🙂
