Describe the bug I search for song by using search_song and inputting title of song in it, but i get completely different results

Expected behavior Return literally first thing that shows up??

To Reproduce song = self.genius.search_song("Song name")

Include the error message associated with the bug.

Version info

  • Package version 3.0.1
  • OS: Windows 10

Why does it return such weird results? When i test it on site it gives me song lyrics i want

What exact search term are you using? genius.search_song is a convenience method that searches for a song and gets its lyrics. You could search for the song yourself and get its lyrics using the methods available

i'm using Genius.search_song(title=None, artist='', song_id=None, get_full_info=True)where i put name of song into title, that's all, and i get completely different results, when i search same song on site, i get the results i want

For example i input title 'Save your tears': this is what i get as result

There's not a single mention of song i searched for
