Music Playback Error. Couldn't play the track you requested.

I'd imagine that this question is quite common, but all the pages I have looked at all have problems similar but not the same as mine. And also, all the solutions that supposedly worked for them (clear the Google Play Music Cache, Restart Phone, Reinstall MP3 file) havn't worked for me. I was downloading about 4 songs onto my phone, 3 of the songs downloaded fine and I can now listen to them. One of the songs gave me that error. It is under the right artist and all, it is labeled as the right song, but when I want to play it this error pops up. I've also deleted it and tried to download a different version of the song, but suprisingly it yielded the same error. It appears to be the same as any of my other music files, I don't understand why my Google Play Music seems to just reject this one song. In fact, I downloaded another song, using the same method that I used to download all my songs, after to test this and that song was not rejected. Why is this happening and how do I fix it? Also, if you are curious the song that is being an issue is "The Greatest" by Futuristic.

Welcome to Android Central! Are you downloading the song from Google Play Music itself, or from somewhere else and having Google Play Music play it?

Hello, i have the same problem like OP mention. I get mp3 from somewhere else and having Google Play Music play it. I can't play the music anymore because it corrupted during file transfer. Its like the playlist db has block that song/file from playing or corrupted. I'm looking for solution for this.
