Q: iTunes "up next" feature messing up playback
Since I updated to iTunes 12.5.1.21, I've noticed that if I want to play the songs on an album in order, it often won't do it, playing similar songs to the current song instead or even different songs with similar titles (for example, I have multiple versions of The Nutcracker, and it'll play the same piece from each version all in a row). It seems to be choosing songs for me. I verified that shuffle is off, and I've determined that it is due to the "up next" feature, which I never noticed before--if it was there, it definitely wasn't doing this. I can stop it from playing the other songs by clearing the queue, but then playback just stops after the current song. Is there a way to turn the "up next" feature off completely? I looked in preferences, but there seems to be no way to change it. If not, is there a way I can stop it from choosing the songs for me? Maybe this is just a glitch, but I don't really know what to do. Thanks!

It does seem to be working now, as long as the song view is still sorted that way. I guess this solves it, but it is weird that this has never happened before.
