Hey there shortround4,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. I understand you want to know how to preview a song in Music on macOS Catalina. I’ll be happy to help.


With Apple Music, there isn’t an option to preview songs. To preview songs, you would need to switch to the iTunes Store and view the song/artist/album there. You can preview a song before you purchase when you do this. Take a look at this article for more info:
