from genius.py.

I can't seem to reproduce this. Using genius.py I get the following output.

Blinding Lights (Chromatics Remix) by The Weeknd (Ft. Chromatics)
The Weeknd - Blinding Lights (Deutsche Übersetzung) by Genius Deutsche Übersetzungen
The Weeknd - Blinding Lights (Русский перевод) by Genius Russian Translations (Русские переводы)

The Weeknd - Blinding Lights (Traduction Française) by Genius Traductions françaises
The Weeknd - Blinding Lights (Polskie Tłumaczenie) by Polskie tłumaczenia Genius

Using the interactive docs, I also receive the same output.

Are you able to test this again?

from genius.py.

I still get same results, it might be token issue or different country,

Do i need to have some kind of premium genius account?

This also happens when using LyricsGenius package and i have no idea why

from genius.py.

can confirm, i also get the same results

from genius.py.

No, i have correct results

from genius.py.

I still get same results, it might be token issue or different country,

Do i need to have some kind of premium genius account?

This also happens when using LyricsGenius package and i have no idea why

No, you do not need a premium account for API usage. This could be a locality issue, did the interactive docs return the same broken result?

from genius.py.

These are top 3 results i get by using docs, second one is what i want
