iTunes: The Breakdown being weird in tracklisting

Is anyone else having problems with the iTunes UK AOA? I prepurchased the album, today it downloaded, yet the Breakdown was not included. I had to go buy it seprately for 0.99. Even though I'd bought it as a single a few months ago. Now The Breakdown moves around in the tracklist, on the iPod it's at Track 1, in iTunes it's track 3, and if I make a playlist it never stays where I put it!

I tell ya, It's breaking me down, down, down...

Go into the playlist.... and "right click" on Breakdown:

> choose "Show info", and look for the box shown below in red,

> choose "1" og try "0" ("zero")....:

Try with 1 or 0, (MAYBE just delete the numbers), this should solve the problem, and the right order should be shown..?

(Try to look what is written for the other songs....)

Let us know if the problem is solved then.. question

Fix: Remove album from your iPod. In iTunes, Select the album, open info (apple+I), click all the tab for album track "of" and add 13 (dont change track number or they'll all be the same track, just alter the "of" tab), then click tabs for discs and add "1" of "1", and then remove all the art. Close. Then open, ctrl+I again for whole album and add back the album art (download a jpeg from google images or something) and close. Reload to iPod. Fixed.

I still had to buy The Breakdownb twice though!

This didn't do it on it's own. It was the album art that was the problem I think.

Also check the Artist Album, and Artist & Album Sort fields for other weirdness.
