I’m disappointed I’ve lost the zalgo tag, I found a great release in there, it was on Bandcamp, and the music was good… I thought I’d download it later, but I didn’t… zalgo is terrible for [SEO](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_engine_optimization?wprov=sfla1) too… 😂

Definitely my fav is the new [singing fish](https://musicbrainz.org/tag/singing%20fish) tag.

I have also been finding some great (and not so great!) ‘influenced by’ releases thanks to tags, such as [silent hill](https://musicbrainz.org/tag/silent%20hill) and [jet set radio](https://musicbrainz.org/tag/jet%20set%20radio) 😍

Those were tagged by me. Just extended criteria to anything containing kaomoji. Enjoy more than 200 tagged entities.

Not sure how well it fits but “skit” - something which used to be quite popular with hip-hop releases years ago, is a tag that I’m slowly building piece by piece

just recently found the incredible [awesomename](https://musicbrainz.org/tag/awesomename).

honorable mention goes to [sillyname](https://musicbrainz.org/tag/sillyname), which is full of ASCII and Unicode nonsense, so I’ve started tagging [silly name](https://musicbrainz.org/tag/silly%20name) instead.

You would be surprised how many “[death by x](https://musicbrainz.org/search?query=death+by&type=tag&limit=100&method=indexed)” trivia tags there are.

Unfortunately many don’t list any entities anymore or are incomplete due to the vote count being less than 1. Even those who are correct:  
E.g. [Buddy Clark](https://musicbrainz.org/artist/d2df15fa-6238-4a8f-b23a-5b75fe9811d5) who [died](https://www.newspapers.com/clip/839258/buddy-clark-death-1949/) in a [plane crash](https://musicbrainz.org/tag/death%20by%20airplane)

those are good, but unfortunately not the one I’m looking for. I’m actually trying to find a release again which had a zalgo title. it was a short title, mostly symmetrical, and was blank where the text would normally go. there was also a Bandcamp link.

I took the liberty of adding a few to that tag myself~ got a few gray areas, do [cars in the background](https://musicbrainz.org/release-group/9162580e-5df4-32de-80cc-f45a8d8a9b1d) count? is it still a car if it has [sled runners](https://musicbrainz.org/release-group/54ff4b84-1925-3487-9502-457e1b07fbe0) instead of wheels? so many questions! 😂

all seriousness aside, I tried not to fill it up with _too_ much [Beach Boys](https://musicbrainz.org/artist/ebfc1398-8d96-47e3-82c3-f782abcdb13d) (they sure do love their cars!), but I did add the [release group](https://musicbrainz.org/release-group/72c8cc00-213e-372c-b624-b5bd75e69dd0) this tag was made for though~ 👌

Just spotted your “car on cover” tag and was disappointed by the lack of KLF covers. Now fixed.

And Stephen King’s Christine just rolled into the car park…

I only added a couple of compilation audiobooks, but I can already tell that [Chuck Tingle](https://musicbrainz.org/artist/4bad8386-00d0-44d8-8ca7-b93513253675) (NSFW) will be a goldmine of unique folksonomy tags. Very unique indeed haha.

unfortunately not… that one might be lost for now

if I had a nickel for every song where someone was [horny for Santa](https://musicbrainz.org/tag/horny%20for%20santa), I’d have at least 2 nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s strange that it’s happened twice… 😅

I wonder how many more there are…

(also the parallel tag, [not horny for Santa](https://musicbrainz.org/tag/not%20horny%20for%20santa))
