Mac iTunes keeps asking me to authorize but still can't play the song

I have songs that I can't play. Every time I click on them, it says the computer is not authorized. I found a suggestion to "Remove Download" and then Re-download. No change.

Mac mini (2018)

Repeated requests to authorize an already authorized computer for recent store downloads typically indicates you have corrupt or incomplete copies. Delete the tracks that won't play from your library without hiding from your purchase history. Redownload using the cloud links that should remain, or close iTunes and reopen if they don't show up straight away. While downloading click the activity widget and turn off the option that allows for simultaneous downloads.


If the issue persists contact Official Apple Support.
