On Iphone want to see list of songs from artist not the albums

In the Library section when I go to Artists on my iPhone it shows the list of albums by the artist. Not the list of songs. If you don't know the album for a particular song you can search forever before finding it. Want to just see a list of the songs from the artist. Can this be done? Have not found an answer for it online.

iPhone 8, iOS 11

Is there a way when I go into my Artist menu and view all the songs by that artist instead of the albums? Is there a way when I go into my Artist menu in Music on my phone that I can view all the songs by that artist instead of the albums? Been bothering me since this was changed.

Can't filter library by artist, album or songs on iPhone Device: iPhone XS Max with iOS 15.5 This is not a super recent development, I've been trying to find a solution on my own with no luck. I've noticed that the option to filter or search songs, artists or albums from the Library tab of the Music app has disappeared. I see only downloaded music and recently added. Some articles I saw suggested going to Settings > Music and enabling 'Show Apple Music' but I don't have that option. Other articles suggested going to Settings > Choose Music and turn on iCloud Music Library but I don't have that option either. Any help with this would be much appreciated.

How do i find a list of artists i like not just the list of artists on my phone Maybe this is an old fashioned viewpoint on music but I want access to a list of Artists I like NOT just a list of artists I have downloaded or have linked to my library. I cant find a way of seeing everyone I like or adding a band or artist without adding them to a library or downloading a track. Before the days of Apple Music I spent months/years copying all my CD's to my iTunes collection, making sure all the artwork was correct etc only for an update to completely mess my library up! Sometimes I want to go back to an artist/track that I listened to years ago but cant remember the name, it just seems bizarre there's no function just to like a band without having download a track or add it to a library.

Click on Search

Type the name of the artists

Click on "Your Library"

Scroll Down to view the lists of Artists, Albums, Songs, Music Videos, Playlist

You have See All section under each

If you go to the Songs view, you can sort by artist. But using the search function is probably your best bet.
