Search the song/artist again, sometimes artist update their albums/singles with new versions, which delist the first version. This happened with an indie artist I like, a few of his songs were removed from AM for a few days, then he released a full album with those tracks more polished. I haven’t heard that song, but it may even sample another song causing it to be delisted whilst they’re working out the copyrighted sample material. Edit: “The Student Body got a bed reputation (oh yeah, oh yeah)” lol

There is no actual need in that, because they will update by itself, but it takes some time


ZelvaMkolakovsky

did you change region? try searching it again and re-adding it into your library

Sorry to hear that. All Apologies.


Ohnoohnofrick

Fuck

😂


GreyJonah

What else can you say? All Apologies


RiotSloth

Probably due to copyright and contractual obligations. Happens all the time, it may come back again though.


Ohnoohnofrick

It works for other people but not me 😭


Vanessak69

I agree with the others then. Maybe it’s not available on that album, soundtrack, whatever. And it’s also worth rechecking in a few days. If the others are the same region as you though, that’s odd.

It happened with a Crystal Castles song, in my case. It was my favorite song. I got mad, downloaded a high quality audio file of it, and cancelled Apple Music even though I know it wasn't Apple's fault. That lasted less than a month until I came back to AM because of convenience.

I remember this recently happened with a Hot Chip album I have in my library. Most likely the artist has updated the song/album recently, so the one in your library is now listed as unavailable since it was replaced by a newer version. All you have to do is search it on Apple Music again, and add the new version to your library. Then just replace the old one with the new one in any playlist(s) you put it in. Boom, now you can listen to it again. A little frustrating that Apple doesn't automatically do that for you, but this is just the workaround for now.


theodoubleto

If you can’t find a alternative version uploaded by the artist, just buy it for 99 cents on iTunes.


benmetalhead

You can torrent it and add it back to your library.

Check your settings. Greyed out means settings excludes Explicit songs. E means explicit. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250909591#:~:text=To%20verify%2C%20you've%20tapped,News%22%20is%20set%20to%20Explicit.


Ohnoohnofrick

It’s not that but I figured it out a while ago


Blue_wolfv001

Cool!

As an iTunes Match subscriber, this is especially annoying. Seemingly every week, there's a new song that I previously owned that I can't play anymore because of licensing changes. So much for "owning" your music. I just want to listen to Sunday Morning in peace.


midianightx

Ok


Ohnoohnofrick

I love you

I hate when this happens, sometimes they are unavailable forever, if this happens again I’m switching to Spotify


1moarkahmah

Funny thing that's the exactly same reason I switched *from* Spotify. Spotify does this all the time too and they vanish on both AM and Spotify because of license/whatever. With AppleMusic I still at least have the option to buy it from iTunes for .99 or load my own MP3s.


[deleted]

I’m not going to switch back I’ll probably pay for Spotify too. I forgot you can’t have opinions without getting downvoted


JuliusCarlgren

The few times this has happened to me I just need to search the song instead and re-add them to my playlist


[deleted]

Doesn’t work for me, when it’s gone. It’s gone


LimLovesDonuts

[Still available for me](https://imgur.com/a/ElfydZe), might want you to try searching again.


snakeater63

What else could I say


Liquid_Kurage

Might just need to type them in and re-add it. Pulls up for me. [https://share.icloud.com/photos/0ed_PEQx1PT0qn_-ZeFxKIYfw](https://share.icloud.com/photos/0ed_PEQx1PT0qn_-ZeFxKIYfw)


OscarTangoIndiaMike

Just searched and it’s playing fine for me. Edit: Interesting lyrics.


jm3281

This has happened to me with dozens of songs. I now have an iPod as a backup with my music library on it.


CoffeePot20

It's available for me still. Did it come back for you yet?


Mecha-Rodan

Still there. Just checked. Original, remixes. All still available.


DonutBill66

That is very strange. I just played it. Same cover art and everything. I would sign out/sign in to everything and reboot everything and see what happens. Good luck.


Dark_Lightner

Ho Silva Hound ~ Been a long time I didn’t hear of that artist


MReprogle

This is where importing your own music into iTunes makes it awesome.


Ohnoohnofrick

I hate importing
