Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/spotipy-dev/spotipy/issues/593

When I run my script to add music to the queue it returns, Player command failed: Premium required, reason: PREMIUM_REQUIRED.
However, I do have a premium spotify account.
I do not understand.

You are likely not using the account you think you are using.

To connect with the right account, initialise your auth_manager by passing show_dialog=True

Please don't forget to provide your code if further help is needed

You are using SpotifyClientCredentials() which means the generated access token doesn't belong to any user, therefore it can't be premium.

You need to use SpotifyOAuth() instead so that your user can authenticate. Your code looks a bit messy, I suggest you start from scratch from this very simple example https://github.com/plamere/spotipy#with-user-authentication, and then just call add_to_queue at the end

Closing this for now, but feel free to reopen if you still encounter the same problem while using SpotifyOAuth()
