Randomly started working again. I'm leaving this issue open because yesterday it was spotify-player fault because official client did work.

This kind of error happens sometimes as Spotify API server may not respond, indicating by 500 Internal Server Error error. Official Spotify client doesn't really work with API server, so it's possible that the API server doesn't work while the client still functions.

Will close this issue for now as there is nothing to be done here.
