How to get my iPhone to play only the songs I've put on it?

I have an iPhone 4S with iOS 7. Ever since updating, I've had Christmas music playing every third song. I've never had the "show all music" option on, I don't subscribe to iTunes Match, and I've wiped my phone back to factory settings three times. I can't find any other options to turn off. Despite being on a fresh reset and only putting the ~300 songs I wanted to listen to on my phone, I'm still hearing 'God Rest ye Merry Gentlemen"!

I'm beyond frustrated. I've looked everywhere, but no one seems to be giving any answers that I haven't already tried. I JUST want my phone to play the songs I have loaded to it. Christmas is over.

Can anyone help me?

Added (1). My phone is not set up to allow youtube/internet to play unless it's the open window. I can see the songs I've put on, I can also see the songs that are downloading themselves from my iCloud.

People say to go to
Settings > General > Network> activate from there
but I don't have a network setting after General? Maybe I'm just STUPID. High possibility. But, My Network is prepaid so its TFW network (I saw this from going to my ABOUT in generals)…

Is the iPhone 3GS still good? - 1

My parents are switching to straight talk, and Apple does not make phones for them. So I'd have to spend about 500 dollars to get one. I'm wondering if the Iphone 3GS is still a decent phone for surfing the internet.
