How to delete a song iTunes can't download?

About a year ago my friend gave me some songs on a flash drive, one of them being a song his father purchased on iTunes. I can't listen to this song because I need his password. Recently, I needed to restore my iPhone. ITunes store keeps trying to download this song but I don't have the password to do so. I also don't want this song at all. It's not in my itunes library anymore. I don't know why the iTunes store is continuously trying to download this song. It keeps giving me notifications and I'm getting a bit discouraged. I can't make my phone stop trying to download this song. Does anyone have any idea what I should try to do?

  • Where can I buy a CD that has the Madden theme song on it? John Madden song is played on the main menu of many Madden 1990s video games? IE it plays when you star the SNES version of Madden 1996, among other Madden games. It was so popular that later it began being played on televised NFL and college football games, and now in the MLB. It used to be available on mix CDs on ebay and amazon, and on the FYE CD making machine. Not on iTunes. Any help is greatly appreciated!
  • What to do when a song I bought on iTunes won't download? About a week ago, I downloaded an album on iTunes for my iPhone and every song successfully downloaded except for one. Whenever I retry the download, it tells me there's an error. What can I do? I paid for it and everything. First I thought that it was because I didn't have any more space on the phone, but I downloaded a whole other album afterwards and it worked fine. It's just that one song that refuses to download.
