Q: Can't delete songs on iphone 6 plus
I delete the songs from itunes but they are still on my iphone with cable attached. Why are the songs not deleting from iphone? The itunes shows nothing but the U2 stuff when my phone is selected.
iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8.1.2

I had same issue. I lent my phone out to the DJ at high school dance and got lots of unwanted songs on the device itself.
I think I found a method. I hope this helps cuz it drove me nuts!!!
On the device (iPad or iPhone) select the unwanted song. Tap the song so that the option to play is shown. Tap the song name. It will begin to play. At the bottom of the screen tap on the 3 little red dots. A pop up appears with "Start Station, Show in iTunes Store, Share Artist..., Share Song..., Add to a Playlist..., Delete" Tap Delete. A second popup appears to confirm the action of "Delete Purchase". Tap "Delete Purchase"
You can see in last pic that I deleted all songs with artists starting with letter A and that now the first song is by an artist starting with letter B.
