I am unable to play "searched for" songs. Songs in my play lists play OK

I am using the free version of spotify. If I place a song that I have searched for in a play list it plays OK.

Hi there @Yeldall,

Thanks for the post.

On Spotify free, you can't play songs on demand. You can only play playlists and albums in shuffled order. 

You can learn more about the differences between Spotify free and Premium here.

Hope this clears things up.
