How to delete multiple songs at ONCE in Apple music.

I accidentally added a 400 song playlist to my other 800+ song playlist on Mac Through the drag and drop feature. Is there anyway to reverse this or highlight all the songs I accidentally merged and delete them? Thanks.

MacBook Air (M2, 2022)

If you select an item in the playlist and then hold the SHIFT key down and select another item, all the items in between the two will be highlighted. If you hold down the CTRL key after selecting the first item you will add individual items to your selection.


Example:

Select song 1 -> hold SHIFT key -> select song 4 (songs 1 THRU 4 will be highlighted)

Select song 1 -> hold CTRL key -> select song 3 and then song 4 (songss 1,3 and 4 will be highlighted)


Cheers!
