How to delete songs on the iPhone 4S on iOS 7?

So I've been trying to figure out how to delete songs on my iPhone 4S using iOS 7. I turned iCloud off for music, and two songs showed up that I really don't want. So then I go back to the iCloud thing for music, turn it on, download those songs, and turn it off. Then I go back and try to slid to delete the songs… And it just plays them. It's almost like insult to injury there.So, if anyone can help me figure out how to delete them, I'd be real happy.

You hold on to the song and then slide the across the song name to the left.

Well if the songs show the iCloud download symbol next to them(even after you slide to delete) you can go into settings, click music then click the 'show all music' switch off hope this helps: D

This is happening to me too and I have done everything that people have said. It's not working. I hope they fix this problem because it's really annoying

Same thing happening to me 3 songs I can't get rid of, just keeps playing them.

I found this, it helped but it delete all your music

I had to remove all of my music. Settings>General>Usage>Music>Edit>delete All Music. Then re-add all the music I wanted. It's a pain, but it worked.

Turn back on show all music, then go back to your music player and click the download from iCloud button by the songs that are stuck on your device. This will make them so they actually register as being on your phone. Then go back and turn off show all music. Now you can delete them by swiping to the left in the music player on the songs you don't want.

You have to swipe left instead of right

View songs. Then slide from right to left. Delete should come up. The trick is you can't delete by viewing albums or artists it has to be songs.

  • Will upgrading from iOS 5 to iOS 6 delete ANY data? I want to upgrade my iPhone 4 from iOS 5 to iOS 6 DIRECTLY FROM THE iPHONE using the software update option in Settings >> General. Will doing this delete ANY contacts, emails, apps, notes and calendar reminders? I'm MOST concerned about CONTACTS. I have more than 1000 of Contacts.
  • Will downloading IOS 9 delete the storage that iOS 8 took up? I have a 16gb iPhone 6, and it come with iOS 8, and I only had 11.6 gb to work with as soon as I got the phone with all of the software installed. My question is: will downloading iOS 9 delete the iOS 8 data, thus freeing up more space after the download because iOS 8 took up more storage?
  • Need to add new songs to iphone without deleting old songs So my old computer crashed and with that i lost all my music that was downloaded to itunes, so i only have those songs saved to my iphone now i just spent $25 on my computer downloading music, but when i went to download it onto my phone it said it didn't match up with this computer and that in order to sync new songs it would delete my entire music library on my phone!
