Hey @deadlygamer,

Thanks for posting in the Community and welcome. 

In this case, we'd suggest to check if perhaps you accidentally blocked the artist of said song. To check it, from your phone, you can go to an Artist profile> the three-dot menu > Don't play this.  If yes, allow to play their content and let us know if you notice any difference.

If the above doesn't do the trick, would you mind sending us the link to the song you noticed is not available? You can do it by following the steps in this article.

Keep in mind, we’d love to have all the music in the world on Spotify, and we hope it will ever be! However, there’s content that’s not currently available (or its availability differs between countries). It all depends on permissions from rights holders.
 

We add new content every day, so if you can’t find something, it may appear (or reappear) soon.

Keep us in the loop!

Hi there @deadlygamer,

Thanks for the post.

Most likely those tracks have been made unavailable for Streaming in your country. This can happen due to copyrights issues or by request from the rights holder of the music. 

Usually content like this makes it's way back on the platform, but we can't say for sure when or if this will happen.

Cheers.

My Question or Issue
Recently I was looking at my playlist on my computer, and I noticed that there are some songs with gray fonts, and a bit darker than the other songs. When I click twice on these songs the message "This content is not available." pops, and the song is not played.

When I try to search for the same song using my iPhone, I cannot find it, and when I try seeking for it on the browser I find it with the play button disabled.

Here is one example: https://open.spotify.com/track/1oe2AckMaSIeNJPO8vOciz

How do you fix this problem? Cause all of my favorite music is doing this.
