I'm trying to navigate but it's not working right for some reason-  'cd Norah Jones' returns no such directory when I know it's right there in the top level. I'm trying to do this over the network, not sure if that is making it not work.

Not sure what you mean by over the network.  You are SSH-ing onto the pi?

Maybe:
cd "Norah Jones" 
or
cd Norah\ Jones
or 
cd Nor
then hit tab and it might auto-complete.

Regarding find, I've only poked around a little here but I believe the music is:
cd /var/lib/mpd/music
And your music will either be in USB or SDCARD.  cd into whichever one.

Quickest way to use find is probably:
find | grep -i sadness

this will look in the current dir and below.  You can just type:
find
to see all the files.

I take it you refreshed the library after deleting the files?
