I have problems with my playlists, what should I do?
Your device has an internal cache where it stores this information. Sometimes this cache gets out of sync.

You may have to press the menu button and change the filter to show all applications. Once you find "Media Store", open its options page and select "Clear Data". Then reboot the device to force the cache to be rebuilt.
Within each album the songs show up alphabetized. In other words, they are not in their original order. Is there a way to fix this?
