In the iPod Cover Flow I got ONLY TWO different albums, one with "ArtistX" and another one with "ArtistX Feat. I found that when the Artist was a combination of, for example: Since I just bought a new iPod Classic, I was again looking into this issue and now I was getting annoyed, strangely the behaviour wasn't the same for all the albums that were suffering from the problem. It seems to be a simple issue around the way the iPod uses the "Album Artist" tag but it also seems to be around forever and it's strange Apple hasn't looked into it. Tagging the tracks as "Part of a Compilation" only partially solves the issue since the album will appear in the iPod Cover Flow as a Compilation showing up in the end and not together with the "Album Artist" like in iTunes and like it should. If the stuff I'm going to describe is already well known than sorry about that, I just couldn't find it anywhere.Īn album that has a single Album Artist and different Artists appears several times in the iPod Cover Flow although it looks just fine in iTunes. I did a lot of testing, including re-writing the ID3 tags in different versions and formats to rule out any issues around the tags themselves.ģ. I searched the web and found people describing this problem since 2006 till 2009 and the solution always revolved around not using the "Artist" and the "Album Artist" tags like they should be used.Ģ. You’ve been married to Jack White for a little more than a year now-I understand that you had an unusual proposal.I've made some research about this issue and got to some interesting conclusions.ġ. They were like, “Oh my God-you covered ‘Sail Away.’ That's ridiculous.” And then the chorus came in, and everyone started laughing. But then everyone was listening and nodding, and I could tell they were like, Hmmm… I know I’ve heard this before. But when we went into the studio, everyone was like, “There’s no way-how are we going to make this into a rock song?” And I was like, “Trust me! Just trust me.” When I had my listening meeting with Third Man, I could tell that they thought the same thing. Most people listen to really epic rock songs, but I would listen to Enya’s “Sail Away”, and it would ground me and make me feel happy. It used to be my hype song before going on stage. I don’t think I need to announce a spoiler alert, but let’s just say that amidst all these guitars and drums on your new record, suddenly we have…an Enya song? I feel like an explanation is in order. And in any case, guitars make good accessories to your outfit-you can match your outfit to your guitar. I feel like rock is coming back, but I don’t follow trends. Things go in cycles: In the ’80s, plastic metal went around in a circle and led the way to grunge, and then everything went pop, and then there was a rock revival, and then back to pop again. Is that something that even enters your mind as an artist and a performer? We’ve been hearing about the death of rock and the end of guitars for a while now. When I first moved here, I very much preferred the Detroit scene, because it was more raw, more up my alley. If you were different, Nashville wasn’t the city for you, but it has grown into a much more eclectic place, which is great. When I first moved here, it was very commercial and very, very country-based. In Nashville there are two worlds: there’s the commercial music world, and then, now that a lot of people have been moving here, there’s a more artistic, outside-the-box scene as well. The Detroit scene is a little bit more experimental, and lends itself a little bit more to unconventional art and thinking outside of the box, doing things that some people might not understand. Both of those cities are legendary for fostering really distinct music scenes, but how do they differ-from the specific kind of music scene to the vibe in general? You’re from Detroit, or outside of Detroit, and you live in Nashville now.
