Could some of the dates coincide with when you added the songs to your library whether ripped from a CD or not?

Re: Apple Music showing some purchased songs as Apple Music

 Music doesn't upload songs to the cloud when they're also available on  Music. Only songs that aren't available on  Music get uploaded. So whenever you're playing a song on your iDevice, it gets streamed from Apple's huge library.
But when you're on your desktop/laptop, you're purchased song gets played.
