Fixing Song Title Inconsistencies

[jimerax]

As for "Game Name" ~ "Song Name" things, I personally don't think "Game Name" ~ parts are mandatory from what people call (not only this site). Otherwise they should be fixed for the accuracy. If we can't change due to characters or the length of the name, leaving them as they are.

ps I just checked S.S.H.'s page and found permission status was changed on May, 2012.

"The new use of songs on the old site is forbidden. Songs on the current site are basically available, but e-mail is required before we use."

hmm.

Along with T-Force's help, he and I are going to spot out inconsistencies and errors in song titles AND artists, as a side project. While I can correct small errors anytime, I'll just list the big ones here before actually executing the change. As mentioned earlier, perhaps a front page post is necessary to bring people's attention to songs with major name changes.

So far:

Brandish Headless --> Headless
Bubble Bobble Hillbilly Rodeo --> Hillbilly Rodeo
Crystalis - House Leaves (Remix) --> House Leaves
Crystalis - House Leaves (Long) --> House Leaves (Long)
Legend of Zelda Remix --> Rabbit Joint Cover*
Mega Man 2 - Dr. Wily Theme #1 --> Dr. Wily Theme
One Minute Waltz --> Minute Waltz
SuperMario 8bit Eighties Remix --> 8-bit Eighties

*Even though this is the correct title, I think this is one of the few cases in which the new title seems to lose any sort of relevancy to the song itself upon first impression.

With a lot of help from subin, I managed to get a full list of recommended changes.

A lot of people agreed, some people disagreed... nothing happened. I'm sure I could find a link if such song name corrections are actually taking place.

Please link your thread in question.

Honestly some of the titles are pretty verbose. subin and I were pretty formal with the names.
If this is too much change, I'm sure we could easily work out more "common" names, but some of them really need to change. Especially Molto Vivace.

In all honesty a crap ton of the titles you are suggesting just seem to be adding the Song Artist/Author before the actual name

And FFLBF is simplified yeah, but it's better than typing out a giant ass name that doesn't fit onto the song list anyway.

This is a screenshot of DJ-Radman's newgrounds that we have permission for.
All of his songs have his own name in them.
So if someone steps one of his songs and it gets accepted, it will have his name in the title as well as him as the author.
I'm going to have to go with qqwref on this one and say that's pretty stupid.

On the other hand, all of our CnB songs have the braces around the song title intact. Radman just does it to increase search traffic, I bet.

Updating list of major song name changes:

Ascii Art Core --> /^o^\
Brandish Headless --> Headless
Bubble Bobble Hillbilly Rodeo --> Hillbilly Rodeo
Cinnamon Roll --> @
Crystalis - House Leaves (Remix) --> House Leaves
Crystalis - House Leaves (Long) --> House Leaves (Long)
Etude in E Major --> Tristesse Etude Op.10, No.3
Legend of Zelda Remix --> Rabbit Joint Cover
Mega Man 2 - Dr. Wily Theme #1 --> Dr. Wily Theme
Molto Vivace --> Transcendental Etude No.2
One Minute Waltz --> Minute Waltz
SuperMario 8bit Eighties Remix --> 8-bit Eighties

I've quickly tested out the new name for "Ascii Art Core" and Cinnamon Roll: yes, the symbols do work. I guess someone made a wrong assumption and didn't even bother to test it out.
edit: or an updated font pack was added more recently

Also, some other classical songs may get a slight name change if appropriate but I haven't looked very closely yet.

Off-topic, but I think some songs genre NEED to be changed, I'm pretty sure Drumcorps would be hella mad seeing his songs labeled as ''Screamo'' or ''Grunge'' Converge never made a grunge song wtf

It's still Dr. Wily Theme #1, just drops the Mega Man 2 part. Trust me, folks. There's a LOT of tiny errors in there.. And we're maybe 1/4th of the way through. XD
