Great folksonomy tags

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.

honorable mention goes to sillyname, which is full of ASCII and Unicode nonsense, so I’ve started tagging silly name instead.

You would be surprised how many “death by x” 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 who died in a plane crash

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 count? is it still a car if it has sled runners instead of wheels? so many questions! :joy:

all seriousness aside, I tried not to fill it up with too much Beach Boys (they sure do love their cars!), but I did add the release group this tag was made for though~ :ok_hand:

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 (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, I’d have at least 2 nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s strange that it’s happened twice… :sweat_smile:

I wonder how many more there are…

(also the parallel tag, not horny for Santa)

OK not the most interesting tag, but the contents of it is. I’ve been tagging any entity I encounter that gets a little chortle out of me

I’ve been doing the same with “silly name” (different from sillyname, mind you)

I’ve recently been coming across a lot of lost media (stuff that’s not anywhere on the internet), and I’ve been tagging some of it, joining at least one other user
