Alphabetizing Song Titles

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   iTunes skips over The when alphabetizing, which is fine, but it also skips over A/An, which just seems wrong to me. When I want to find A Flock of Seagulls and A Taste of Honey, my brain thinks of the letter A, not F or T. Luckily with iTunes you can override its sorting by typing in how you want it to sort an entry.

	I always leave off "the" for artist names, not sure who Kid Laroi is, but anything by the Weeknd I have is filed under W. Likewise Flock Of Seagulls is under F. YMMV
