My Question or Issue

Like the title says: Spotify is playing songs I don't have saved. Is there a guaranteed way to stop certain songs from playing?

 

 

Some of that I can tolerate, they're just songs I don't like. However, some of these songs are triggers for traumatic flashbacks for my significant other. This is absolutely unacceptable. 

 

The following is from the "Artist from your library" view:

There are multiple songs that shouldn't be there. I actually had to "un-save" them again from the "Album" view, and they're still showing, and playing, even after a restart. In fact, I went to shuffle the artist on my phone, and it played every single song I didn't have saved before it played the ones I actually did.

 

I am absolutely livid over this. I could tolerate the awful shuffle methods, the hidden meaning of the download switch on saved albums (spoiler alert: it actually means save EVERY song and download it, even if not previously saved), and the bugs and glitches and atrocious interface redesigns that seem to happen every three months. But there NEEDS to be a way to keep certain songs from playing, because I can't click the shuffle button for my saved songs from an artist, and have it send my SO into a flashback.
