Hello there,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

If you would like to delete songs or albums from your iPhone, then please follow the directions below.

Delete music and audiobooks

Remove songs, albums, or audiobooks from the Music app by swiping to the left and tapping delete.

Alix......I tried your suggestion and was able to get to the DELETE but after tapping it the song and album are still there......maybe I need to drive up to the Apple store and ask someone to take a look at this thing as i have been unsuccessful in dumping DEAD SARA (I have no idea how it got there to start with). Thanks for your attempt as I appreciate your efforts......Neil

I have the same problem as well. I think the items that I can't delete are items from my old iTunes account or songs that I purchased on my phone. I can't swipe them at all.
