This is not an artist, but appears here due to incorrectly tagged tracks for a various broadway shows. If this non-artist appears in your charts, do last.fm and yourself a favor. Fix your tags by putting the actual artist name in the artist field. Not the show name, not “original broadway cast”, but the actual artist name.

I'd rather not have to look up the different artists behind hundreds of broadway songs on my iPod. Plus having all those different artists under my iPod would be annoying to no extent, since most broadway tracks consist of at least two people. So I'll stick with either OBC or the name of the musical. I use OBC for The Little Mermaid because when I added the album to computer it was labeled like that and now it has a bunch of plays so it's not worth changing really. Why lose all the plays I've got from those tracks by changing the artists? This is too complicated...

I think over 77,000 listeners tells you that this really is an accepted artist tag. I tag musicals with the name of the cast (Broadway, London, etc.). If that information is unavailable, then I use the composer.

What? Should I feel guilty or something? Like I'm not giving the Original Broadway Cast Members credit for their work? Like I'm cheating them? :/

Oh my! An actual picture! That's a step in the right direction. But The Little Mermaid, of all shows.

I do whatever came with the CD. in the case of the OBC recording of Rent, it comes with this tag, therefore I am keeping this tag. sorry if it throws off your stats, but it would throw mine off if I had a different set of actors names for each of the songs.

Man, last.fm's tone is so insulting, I'm going to keep me tag as this just to piss them off.

I agree with trix as well. In the cases of musicals, often the show itself is more important than the individual artist and therefore that makes most sense for stats and for ipods. Also, the wording on that is unnecessarily aggressive and makes you sound like a moron for using what comes up when you rip a cd. If it's what the manufacturers thought was appropriate, it's probably not that moronic. I agree that the writer isn't the way to go either, since we wouldn't put that for any other genre.

I guess last.fm has no idea how much of a PITA it would be to put the artist's (actor/s) name(s) in the song title. And apparantly most agree since you rarely get that type of match from MusicBrainz or CDDB....

Just wanted to note that there's not a really good way to accurately tag B'way tracks. Example: I started changing my Parade tags from "Original Broadway Cast" to the artists names. But I have a track listed as being by "Carolee Carmello & Brent Carver". This same track is also listed as being by "Brent Carver/Carolee Carmello", "Brent Carver & Carolee Carmello", "Brent Carver, Carolee Carmello with Christy Carlson Romano", etc etc etc. Additionally, how to we describe the company numbers? "Company"? "Ensemble"? "Cast"? "Chorus"? And do we have to put the show name in front of whatever descriptor we choose in order to keep them straight? I applaud the idea of keeping your tags straight but until a standard nomenclature is defined, does Last.FM have to be so rude about it??
