Britney Spears? *lol* ... sorry 
Well, looks like you are using the ncmpcpp package from the repos right? Could you please try it again with the -git package from the AUR? In case it works then, the author should release a newer version of ncmpcpp, since the most up to date stable version seems to be broken.

ncmpcpp needs curl to fetch lyrics from internet. Make sure curl is installed in your Arch (hard to believe if it doesn't).
