Itunes wont show my songs in albums!

I have a mac (Mac Mini, Mac OS X Server Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)) and I have itunes updated and everything else that I would think need to be updated but this has been happening for so long. For all my albums I can not see the songs, like it just wont show them when I click on album cover / thing. But my music does show when I go to songs. It also wont show in, Artist, and Gernes. 😟

Heres an example of what it does:

Thank you in advance!!

Hi NoahS168,

If iTunes does not appear to be grouping your songs correctly under Album, Artist, or Genre, you may want to check to make sure that something hasn't changed or removed the metadata from those fields. The following articles explains a bit more about the metadata attached to song files:

It's not that it wont show all my songs in one album its just that it wont show any thing in my album the songs are all there, theres just some weird thing blocking me from seeing them

I'm having the same problem. See my example below. I have two Justin Timberlake albums. The 20/20 Experience Part 1 shows all of the individual songs. The 20/20 Experience Part 2 shows none of the songs. Yet when I look for the album on the iTunes store it shows that I've purchased every single song.

How can I get the songs to show up in iTunes so that I can actually listen to them?
