    :) you should really take a look at my library folder for lisa stansfield. over two thirds of the tracks on there are mistagged (3 albums' worth)! adding to the confusion is that what i listen to off my itunes library is obviously correct, but that data's mixed in with the mistagged scrobbles from last.fm streams when i'm tuned in. how they're going to sort that out escapes me. i think they'll just fudge it in the end as a one-time 'write-off'. anal? you and me both. ;)

    Pink "Eventually" is in fact "You make me sick".

    Several tracks by K's Choice are mistakenly scrobbled as being by "Ram Exponention" which I've never heard of personally. This nobody person has a whole K's Choice album assigned to him!

    @fmera: As for you, you really could be a little nicer about things. I actually DID search the forums for similar threads but I wasn't sure if your issue was exactly the same as mine, or if my post would be seen if added to an old thread. So pardon me for creating a new thread, I shall repent for ever and a day.

    If you people are serious about improving the quality of last.fm tagging, you should welcome people bringing these things up shouldn't you? That little "dupe" of yours was very rude and completely unnecessary. But don't worry, I'll never post on your precious forums ever again. Happy now?

    ==edit==
    yeah, sorry about the irrational aggro. I'm just upset that one of my favourite bands aren't getting credit where credit is due and I don't get the correct statistics on my profile. I never post on forums because I'm too sensitive. I'm going to retreat back under my rock and stay there, I'm much happier that way.

    Again, sorry!

    sorry if you were offended. that "dupe" was simply to indicate it was a duplicate issue of an existing thread. this is what i posted word-for-word:
    not presently, no. but there is an existing thread here you can post this case to.

    dupe.

    i answered your question and fed you a link to this existing thread, and put a "dupe" marker for the moderators to indicate they may wish to lock it. how is that rude? get over it, alright?

    btw, rude is calling the artist you named above in your post a nobody.

  • Duplicated artists

    Not sure if this is the correct thread (if not, apologies) but there are a number of artists who appear twice - often when they have "and" in the name. The case I'd like to point out in particular is Love and Money - which is the correct tag and Love & Money. What makes this worse is that the streamable tracks are all on the incorrect Love&Money, even though it's clear from the number of listeners/plays that the first one is correct.

    As a comparison, Belle and Sebastian and Belle & Sebastian both take you to the same place (in fact the tag has just changed the & to and)

    hi Scouse Mouse, the answer to your 2 examples can be found in the 3rd question here. hope that explains things.

    ps: technically, not an issue related to this thread.

    The first 2 albums you provided had (Album Version) or similar suffixes appended to the titles, which is what the tool can clean automatically (also LP Version, Single Version, etc.) at the moment..


    Is this why some tracks now have () after the title
    e.g.
    Valentine - Ocean Full Of Tears ()

    I assume the brackets once contained words like "album version".



    Yes, these are wrong replacements. They are fixed now.

    more wrongness here - http://www.last.fm/music/Max+Greger/_/Greensleeves

    That's not Greensleeves, it's True Love.

    It's very famous. Bing Crosby sang it, as did Patsy Cline and many others. It's a golden oldie. http://www.last.fm/music/Patsy+Cline/_/True+Love

  • Rage Against the Machine - Know Your Enemy

    ...is a cover by some band, but not RAtM

    Can you fix this one (which has been broken for a long time)?

  • Sorry if this is slightly OT, but what is the correct way to report incorrect song titles or artist names?

    I (often?) see wrong letters, especially for Spanish language, like e instead of é, n instead of ñ, etc.

    Or is this something that cannot be easily fixed?

    The Adverts' Bombsite Boy

    http://www.last.fm/music/The+Adverts/_/Bombsite+Boy
    This song on the player (and stand-alone radio player, too) is actually Gary Gilmore's Eyes, not Bombsite Boy, by the same artist.

    hi, cases like yours (involving accents) are presently not correctable. for incorrect upper/lowercase typos, you can post in this thread.

    Too bad. :(

    Thanks for your answer anyway.

    ahaa!! http://www.last.fm/music/The+Specials/_/Stereotypes-Stereotypes%2C+Pt.+2 or TocarStereotypes-Stereotypes, Pt. 2


    Here it is again http://www.last.fm/music/The+Specials/_/Stereotypes%252FStereotypes%2BPt.2 or Stereotypes/Stereotypes Pt.2

    and here http://www.last.fm/music/The+Specials/_/Stereotypes+Pt+2, or TocarStereotypes Pt 2


    The second one is the correct one but not the one I was originally looking for. The one I wanted was 3:51 mins. The two-parter is over 7 mins.

    Not sure, but I don't think Madeleine Peyroux should be on this album from Cousteau / Moreau. I think it's a mistake. It's not on the UK version of the same album from Cousteau. And according to All Music, which shows the USA version, it should be 'Black Heart of Mine'.

  • I hope this is the right thread, sorry if not, but for some reason the album Excellent Italian Greyhound by Shellac doesn't come up at all. The tracks get misassigned to other albums, such as Peel Session - Live from Maida Vale
    e.g. The End of Radio

    or when they do get assigned to Excellent Italian Greyhound the page doesn't come up
    e.g. Genuine Lulabelle

    I have never heard this lovely song. I've got no clue whose song this is, but I am so sure that this is in no way related to Johnny Thunders.

    According to emusic - http://www.emusic.com/album/Grazie-a-Dio-ao-vivo-vol-1-Grazie-a-Dio-ao-vivo-vol-1-MP3-Download/11056355.html - the artist is 'Heartbreakers' (not your guy, another band). I can't find them in Last.fm and I'm not going to click through 107 pages of the 'heartbreakers' search results till I do.

    So they are "Heartbreakers" (without "the"), who are not so widely known and who are treated as "THE Heartbreakers" on last.fm. I know this happens... ;-)
    Thanks again!

  • I don't know if I am posting this in the right place but the live version of you've got a friend by Carole King sounds like the recorded version, and the recorded version is the live version

    Re:yet another album of wrongly assigned tracks (new case)

    fmera said:
    i had added some tracks from carole king's album Wrap Around Joy to my playlist only days ago. and i'm positive all the tracks from the album were in order when i previewed them. however, this morning when i checked, everything was haywire, save for tracks #2 and #3:

    1 TocarNightingale -> 5. You're Something New
    2 TocarChange in Mind, Change of Heart -> ok
    3 TocarJazzman -> ok
    4 TocarYou Go Your Way, I'll Go Mine -> 11. A Night This Side of Dying
    5 TocarYou're Something New -> 12. The Best Is Yet to Come
    6 TocarWe Are All in This Together -> 8. You Gentle Me
    7 TocarWrap Around Joy -> 9. My Lovin' Eyes
    8 TocarYou Gentle Me -> 10. Sweet Adonis
    9 TocarMy Lovin' Eyes -> 4. You Go Your Way, I'll Go Mine
    10 TocarSweet Adonis ->6. We Are All in This Together
    11 TocarA Night This Side of Dying -> 1. Nightingale
    12 TocarThe Best Is Yet to Come -> 7. Wrap Around Joy

    what is going on?

    i just discovered that this album has been completely fixed. whoever was responsible, thanks. or maybe it was something that righted itself when somebody fiddled with the database. whatever.

    btw, @girl_from_oz : you're right about that.
