Hm, the same call works fine for me. I'm suspecting some kind of YouTube update. Can you go to the charts page and screenshot it for me to compare? Or even better, provide a JSON of the response after navigating to the US filtered page? See screenshot.

You are missing the "Top songs" category, which is very unusual. Do you have any idea why that is missing for you?

That is most likely the reason. Not sure if it's worth implementing a workaround for this niche case
