Can't play songs that are listed.

Was trying to play "She Blinded me With Science" by Thomas Dolby off of The Golden Age of Wireless album, but nothing happens when I click on it, or most of the songs on the album. And even if I click shuffle all and look at the queue, only a tiny portion of the album actually gets queued up, and "She Blinded me With Science" isn't one of the songs.

Hi pwheeler1994,

Thanks for posting in the Spotify Community. When I go to The Golden Age of Wireless album on Spotify that you mention, most of the songs are greyed out (except for five of them), meaning that these tracks are unavailable to listen to in my country (USA). Are the songs that you can’t play greyed out for you as well?

Missing or unavailable music is usually a decision by the artist or label to withhold the content from Spotify. Sometimes it's temporarily unavailable while they sort out legal issues or correct metadata, in which case the music will return as soon as the artist/label resubmits it to Spotify. Feel free to contact the artist or label directly and ask why the music isn't on Spotify. Also, you can check out this thread on the Spotify Community about missing or unavailable music, here.

Have a good day!

I mostly use Spotify on mobile, and nothing of his is grayed out on the app, but it is grayed out on PC. I guess he doesn't want his biggest hit on Spotify.

Hi there @pwheeler1994,

Thanks for asking about this! 

Can you clarify what exactly you mean by 'nothing of his is grayed out on the app, but it is grayed out on PC'? 

Do you have the Spotify app on your PC? Or do you listen in Web Player there? You can send us screenshots for comparison 🙂

Thanks!
