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 cast recording”, but the actual artist name.

    I like how the charts are dominated by the Book of Mormon. [2]

    If you used MusicBrainz Picard to fix your tags it would not be a problem.

    If this is an incorrect tag I don't understand why last.fm has auto-corrected one of my tags to it.

    But... I've downloaded things from iTunes (my live Rocky Horror recording, for instance) that uses Original Cast Recording as its artist. Many of the CDs I own put Original Cast Recording or a variation thereof (Broadway or London) by default. Sorry, Last.fm, but I have no interest in clogging the hell out of my iTunes and media library just because you say my artist tags are 'wrong'.

    Spotify is so irritating, because when it has stuff labelled wrong there's nothing you can do about it.

    ORGANIZE THEM BY COMPOSER!!!! Nine is Maury Yeston, A Little Night Music is Stephen Sondheim, Godspell is Stephen Schwartz! IT'S FUCKING EASY!!!

    "Last.fm needs to fix scrobbling with Broadway shows. There is no unified way to tag these songs other than by show. If you tag by whatever combination of performers happen to be in each song, you'll have 10-15 different artist combos for each soundtrack. That just adds more clutter to the site." I agree with this.

    Uhhh...you can't get mad at people for having incorrect tags and then not explain how you want us to fix them. Use the "artist" - what does that mean for a cast recording? Who is the artist? The person who wrote the song? The singer of that particular song? The conductor of the orchestra?

    Use Picard. Last.fm likes the tag it gives 99% of the time. Can't find In the Heights on it though. : P

    What bullshit. The name of the musical is the Album, the person who wrote it is the Composer, and the cast that recorded it is the Artist. That's it. There's no other way to do it. I can't even imagine what last.fm wants us to use...

    Funny. Even last.fm radio plays "Original Cast Recording" when you ask for similar artist to some musical performers. Easier to preach with word than set example, I guess.
