    If you list the albums and the songs in columns A/B respectively you can use autofiltering.
    You would end up with something like:-
    Column A....Column B
    Album 1......Song 1
    Album 1......Song 2
    Album 1......Song 3
    Album 1......Song 4
    Album 1......Song 5
    Album 2......Song 1
    Album 2......Song 2
    Album 2......Song 3
    Album 2......Song 4
    Album 2......Song 5

    Using autofilter in Column A, you can select the album to see what songs are on it, autofilter in Column B will allow you to select a song and show the song and the album it's on.
