Lyrics in search results?

[redapemusic35]

Is there a way to include lyrics in the search results? <a class="chart-element__information__lyrics show-more__hidden-el" title="Read Lyrics of Blinding Lights by The Weeknd" href="https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/lyrics/8545919/the-weeknd-blinding-lights-lyrics" target="_blank">Song Lyrics</a> I guess that the following is the html element containing the address for the lyrics. Would I add "chart-element_information_lyrics show-more_hidden-el" to the css selector?

Did you figure this out? If not, can you clarify what you're trying to do?

You can return various lists, titles, artists, time song spent in top 10, 100 etc. I was just wondering if it is possible to include the ability to return song lyrics in addition to the other variables. Something like:

>>> song = chart[0]  # Get no. 1 song on chart
>>> song.title
'Nice For What'
>>> song.artist
'Drake'
>>> song.weeks  # Number of weeks on chart
2
>>> song.lyric
'blah blah blah'

Oh, gotcha. You need to write a selector for the a element, grab the URL, download that page, and parse it.

You can also use the Musixmath API.

I am really a novice when it comes to coding generally, what is a Musixmath API?

Ok I see. Though there is a free version, it appears as though it only gives access to 30% of the lyrics, and I do not have the funding for the paid version.

What you can do is somthing like this:

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as Parse

def make_soup(url):
    """
    Parse a web page info html
     """
    user_agent = {
        'User-Agent': "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/80.0.3987.163 Safari/537.36"
    }
    r = requests.get(url, headers=user_agent)
    html = Parse(r.content, "html.parser")
    return html

def format_url(string):
    """
    Replace les spaces with '%20'
    """
    return string.replace(" ", "%20")

def get_song_url(html):
    song_url = html.find("a", {"class": "title"})["href"]
    return song_url

def find_Lyrics(titre, artiste):
        url = f"https://www.musixmatch.com/fr/search/{artiste}%20{titre}/tracks"

        url = format_url(url)                
        pageweb = make_soup(url)    

        # Recupere le lien de la chanson
        song_url = pageweb.find("a", {"class": "title"})["href"]
        song_url = "https://www.musixmatch.com" + song_url

        # Recupere les paroles
        pageweb = make_soup(song_url)
        paroles = list()
        for span in pageweb.find_all("span", {"class" : "lyrics__content__ok"}):
            print(span.text)

find_Lyrics("title","artist")

This is an old code of mine. Didn't test it but this shoud do what you requested
