Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/sigma67/ytmusicapi/issues/851
When calling
get_watch_playlist(videoId=8embeaRU9xk), the top-level"lyrics"field is oftennull, even though the song clearly has lyrics visible on the official YouTube Music website (both in browser and mobile app).This makes it impossible to reliably retrieve the lyrics browse ID needed for
get_lyrics(browse_id)without extra workarounds.@sigma67 commented on GitHub (Jan 19, 2026):
Please provide an example
videoId. Also it would be great if you could follow the issue template, that's why it exists.@gurbandev commented on GitHub (Jan 19, 2026):
for example this videoId: "8embeaRU9xk"
