Displaying a list of songs instead of lyrics.

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug When I search for the lyrics of a song it shows me a list of different songs on genius but no the lyrics of the song I specified. I’m using the search_song() function. The title of the song is without any “remix”, “live” etc. tags.

Expected behavior It should be displaying the lyrics of the song not a list of different songs grabbed from genius.

To Reproduce Describe the steps required to reproduce the behavior.

  1. Search for the song "Post Malone (feat. RANI) by Sam Feldt. genius.search_song("Post Malone (feat. RANI)", "Sam Feldt"
  2. Print the results.
  3. It should be displaying a list of different songs but not lyrics.

I get no error just the behavior of the module is wrong.

Version info

  • Package version [1.7.0]
  • OS: [Windows 10 Home 64-bit]

Additional context It’s not happening to every song. Just a few songs have this problem.

Closing this as it seems the issue has been solved since there’s been no activity.

I’m having the same issue . ‘song.lyrics’ does not return the lyrics, but return a list of songs instead. (screenshot attached)

song = genius.search_song("Post Malone (feat. RANI)", "Sam Feldt")
print(song.lyrics)
