Recently Added- Apple Music Showing older music on Mac

Hi does anyone know why on my mac i can see older songs/songs that were added a long time ago appearing in the "recently Added" Section along with new/Recently Added songs

Shouldnt this section just show new songs/Recently Added songs. This is the way it shows this section on iOS (Older songs from about 3 4 years ago dont show like they do on macOS)

Any Help Would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

You can see the recently added goes back to 2007 on the mac but this section is mean to be for recent songs to ones added 10 years ago etc

You can see on iOS it doesnt show songs from 2007 but instead Recently added songs as what this section is meant to do

Thanks

iMac (27-inch Mid 2011), macOS Sierra (10.12.2)

Have you recently added Apple Music playlists with songs from these albums? Even though the songs may have been in your library for years, for some reason – and with only some songs! – if you add an Apple Music curated playlist that contains something you own, it may – but not always! – act like you just added the whole album to your iTunes library. This happens to me all the time and it is infuriating. It's clearly a bug, so hopefully they are working on correcting it.

Yes. I have songs showing all the way back to 2007 on the mac in recently added ( this the default recently added not one I created a as a smart playlist )

Also do u see dates above yours for example. Today yesterday this week last week last 3 months last 6 months 2016 2015 etc back to 2007 for me

I have exactly the same issue, but I don't think this is the problem. I have been checking my Apple Music playlists and they don't have songs from this albums.The issue only happens in iTunes not in the Music app in iOS.

Any idea?

Yeah it seems to be normal behaviour at least for now. yes thats right it happens on itunes on mac not the iOS devices. perhaps they will fix it soon. I hope they will either fix it and rename it to all songs and then change it to all songs on iOS and have all our songs show there like iTunes on the mac, job done
