I was editing a playlist and deleted some purchased songs from it; however, the songs also disappeared from my library as a whole. I went to the iTunes Store > More > Purchased > Music > but they don't even show up there. How can I recover those songs? Thanks.

Jason,
Since the whole album was purchased, not sure what the explanation would be for those 2 tracks to be missing in that view. You may want to reach out to Apple Support and see if they can assist in getting those two songs downloaded:
Jason,
In the iTunes Store app, look under More (as you suggested in an earlier post). Click thru to the album. Then available songs will be marked either as Play, if they are already on the phone, or with the cloud/download icon if they are available to download. See screenshot below.
Thanks. I've attached a screenshot from my phone of what I see in the iTunes store app. It shows the two songs are purchased (the whole album is purchased), but I cannot see them on the iTunes app.
Thanks. I went to the album and those songs that showed as purchased (would be songs 7 and 10) are not even listed.
Jason,
Look on your computer hard drive, including Trash/Recycle. If you find the song file, re-add it to your library.
Thanks for the reply, but this is on my phone, not my computer. The good news is that I can still see the songs on the computer.
Jason,
On the phone, the song should be re-downloadable from the iTunes Store app, provided you are using the same account and the song is still available in the Store for your country.
Thanks, I'll do that. I appreciate you taking the time to help me.
