Is it possible to create a playlist that pauses after each song on Mac?

I need to make a playlist where it pauses after each song plays, is there a way to do this on mac? i would be doing it with local files but i don't think that matters.

I need to use a song from music on my Mac for a slideshow. I can't figure out how to make it available in the music side of the slideshow sound selection. I can see the song in music and have it in a playlist. I need to use a song from music on my Mac for a slideshow.

I have done this years ago so thought it would be simple. I have started a subscription to Music, but can't seem to access the song I need for the slideshow.

Desmond,

Make sure each track in the playlist its unchecked. Since iTunes/Music will not automatically advance to an unchecked track, this will cause it to stop at the end of each track until you start the next one.

If you don't see the checkboxes, enable them in Preferences.
