Lyrics button disappeared


There have been lyrics on certain songs (Rammstein - Zeit, Sonne, Mutter, etc for example) but a few days ago the lyrics button disappeared from these songs.

 

Rebooted the phone, changed the location to Germany, but nothing helped.

 

Basically, no non-english songs have lyrics available (no microphone icon next to any non-English song, nor is there the lyrics button when the songs are playing)

Hello there @ljopi87

We don’t have lyrics to all the song we have in our catalogue. 

Some lyrics are just not available yet, but don’t worry, 

they might come back soon!

Thank you for your response. I would consider it as a valid one if that was the case from the start :)

 

However, all these songs had lyrics until a few days ago, so I'm wondering what happened to them?

 

Also, if we exclude Zeit as a new song (even though it had lyrics before), the other songs are very old (and they too had lyrics), so I don't believe those need to be added again, right?

 


I just started using this app today and don't see anywhere to get any lyrics, which is my whole reasoning for getting the app, I specifically want lyrics on a certain artist, guess ill go back to my original app since its not avaliable.

@Yula The lyrics are still missing for all Rammstein songs in the Rammstein Complete playlist. And as @ljopi87 already mentioned, all, or very many were there at one time or another. That there was no change now after 8 months, makes me a little sad, because I would like to have the lyrics, especially with Rammstein. Could you please ask LyricFind again, where they remain, or if there were any license problems, then we would at least have certainty that they do not come back.
Thanks in advance

I don't know why my comment was blocked yesterday when I uploaded a picture where lyrics are shown on the TV, so I initially made a grumpy comment. It's been edited now since this comment seems to have been auto-approved.

 

Cheers

@lm41 I mentioned this yesterday but my comment wasn't approved then - as you can see in the comment above - casting the song to Chromecast displays the lyrics. They "magically" disappear on mobile devices, though.

@Yula and @Jaime. can this be escalated now?

If i have the track page open in the browser the lyrics are there:
 

If I play the song normally they aren’t there.

@Yula In the subreddit r/rammstein many users have announced that many lyrics have been added back on spotify. Since spotify uses musixmatch, it seems like they were added there. Can you please check again with lyricfind. Maybe also with the request to ask the Rammstein management, what is with the song lyrics. as

@Fev If you are a free user of Deezer, or are using version 8.0.8 of Android (or older) or iOS 10.8 (or older), you will not be able to access lyrics. Free users will be redirected to purchase a subscription plan, so you still have a chance to view lyrics!


Hi, 

Had the same problem, yesterday I was listening to Craig David 7 days and there were lyrics, I was delighted to discover them!

Today, no more lyrics button, simply disappeared for this song, but available for other songs.

I've cleared up the cache memory, reboot the phone, no way, they have simply vanished 😢

How comes? Could you do anything about it. 

BTW I pay for the service. 

Thanks for your help

hello there ​@Hillary Umeojiaku 

i would direct your attention to the reply just before yours from 3 days ago, from community manager Jaime, where he gives a definitive answer to the lyrics question.

Hello,

 

This is actually an issue that has been going on for several months now. Its a weird bug, because I know that the lyrics is still available for the songs, because if you are very very lucky it does actually seem to show up sometimes, but most of the time the lyrics is not showing up. Every single day more lyrics is disappearing, but sometimes (doesn't happen a lot) the lyrics for a song comes back. ​@Jaime.Deezer I've tagged you in the post where I have been talking with Greg about this issue a while ago. Maybe you can find some information there that will help y'all fix the issue. As I stated in the original post, this started happening after a certain update of the app, which is the exact same update that started the fallback issue. At that time if would downgrade to a certain version of the app, all the bugs, including the disappearing lyrics, would go away. That doesn't seem to work anymore tho

@Jaime.Deezer What are the certain repertoires that are not legally allowed to have lyrics on songs? Is there a way to know which song should have the lyrics button?

I understand this is an unfortunate situation for all, but I would appreciate knowing what to expect from the app as this is kind of a disappointing downgrade.
