If a line is delivered by multiple performers, highlight the line multiple times, adding a different artist each time. You’ll notice we get a third color, assigned to the combination of all artists together.
Be careful to not leave any white spaces when highlighting the vocals of different performers!
6. Work through any trickier to tackle sections
We've provided some '
Miscellaneous' tagging options for lyrics that are not clearly delivered by otherwise tag-able performers:
-
#fanchant can be used in cases where lyrics are sang by a crowd or uncredited ensemble. This will be most helpful for live versions, like this performance of '
In the End' by Linkin Park (2:10 - 2:26).
- But, what if...?
If you’re unable to find the performer in the list given in the contribution tool, it’s likely the artist source connection has been interrupted. To fix it, you can share the Spotify and/or Apple Music link to both the artist and the song in the #catalogue-issues channel of the Community Slack Workspace, and our moderators will take care of it.
If you’re working on an electronic song and the voice delivering a line is highly edited to the point that it sounds robotic, and the performer is unclear, you can tag the main artist of the song. This often happens with techno or dance genre tracks.
If a line is performed by a large group of artists (such as a choir), you can tag the most prominent of the voices you hear. If there is no prominent voice and the group isn’t credited in the song data, you can tag the main artist of the song.
