Hi Seeker321.
Thanks you for following up and clarifying. In the upper right corner of Music, there are three options. Apple Music, Your Library, and iTunes Store. Let's make sure that we have iTunes Store selected before performing a search. See below from:

"In the Music app on your Mac, click the search field in the top-left corner, then do one of the following:
If the issue continues, start up in safe mode and test.

Hope this helps.

you can not delete a permanently installed app like imusic on a mac book pro.
so i can't do as you suggested. and i tried the other option. there is a search box, but when you search on the itunes store, it only shows currently purchased songs or personally uploaded songs.
p.s. meaning i can't search on new songs in the music store to buy. it only shows what i currently have in the search function.
thank you. i don't recall seeing the itunes store box no the top right before. followed your instructions and clicked on that. now it works. thanks
Hello Seeker321.
Glad to see that you are all set.
Take care.
