I tag them like this
1. Artist: names of singers 2. Album artist: leave empty 3. Composer: A.R. Rahman 4. Genre: Pop or jazz or rock and so on 5. Name of the song: Name of the song Though I am no music expert, I can somewhat understand the broad genres of music so I try to classify the genre of each song. But as ARR uses a variety of genres for any particular song, I try to classify whatever I can identify for a song. That way a combo of genres become a genre in my library. No practical use but more than once I have used this to shut up detractors. Though I cannot identify ragas, with inputs from this group mails and other websites, I have also listed the raga on which the song is based in the "lyrics" field of the library. This helps my kids who learn classical music to understand ARR's music better.

Hi, I want to know, how to tag ARR mp3s (in general, tagging MP3 in correct way) What should I add for 1. Artist 2. Album artist 3. Composer 4. Genre 5. Name of the song. In many places in US, artist is generally the main composer and singer. But I generally add A. R. Rahman as artist for all my ARR mp3s. -- Thanks, Anil
