How to delete songs with exclamation marks on iTunes?

I got the album artwork for the album on itunes, so I deleted the album on my phone so I could add the new version on instead. But when I go to my iPhone on itunes all the songs are still there with exclamation marks next to them, and it won't let me delete them, and it won't let me add the new version. The songs appear on iTunes not working, and they don't appear at all on my phone. How do I delete them on the 'my iPhone' section of itunes when they have the exclamation marks? I just want to have the music back!

The exclamation point means that iTunes doesn't have them available in your library. If you deleted them from your phone, chances are your sync also deleted them from iTunes. You should be able to restore it from your purchases section in iTunes. You have to delete the entire file to remove the exclamation points and then restore the purchase through iTunes.
