There are some fake files around that will never download... just sit at 'connecting' til the cows come home. Kill them & start again! If you're finding it hard to get a good source, try the All Types search rather than Audio/Video. Try varying your search terms too, or just search for album title instead of song title.

There's a bit of info about files not verifying here
