No Genius Lyrics
-
Genius used to show up as a lyrics provider and is also advertised as so on the website, however I've noticed it seemed to have disappeared a while ago and is no longer an option. I use strawberry from the arch linux pacman repository in case that helps narrow down the problem.

I had to remove it since Genius changed their web pages, many times it was showing only partially lyrics, and Genius keeps changing their web pages, continuously breaking the lyrics parsing. It's also pretty messy to parse HTML instead of using an API.
It's not possible to get full lyrics from the Genius API, and their search is also very bad, so I finally just decided to just remove it.
