There are lots of fake files around now which will never download. Typically, these are new releases (though not always) with lots of sources (up to 100).
Search again. Vary your search terms, look for artist or album rather than song title. Try the All Types search. Stay away from files with huge numbers of sources, I go for files with 10 sources or less.
