Music uploads compete in the single most crowded category on YouTube, and the tags that work are rarely the obvious ones. A cover needs the original artist's name to be findable; an original needs genre and mood tags; a lyric video needs the format tag because that's literally what people type. Enter your track or genre and the generator returns a mix weighted toward whichever of those you're publishing.
When to use this
Use for: cover uploads that need the source artist tagged, independent releases with no existing audience, lyric and visualiser videos, remix and mashup drops, live-session and unplugged recordings, playlist compilation uploads.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do hashtags help a cover song get found?
They help less than the title does. Search for covers is driven by the original song name and artist, so both belong in your title first. Hashtags are a secondary signal - use them for the format (#cover, #acoustic, #unplugged) and the genre, and let the title carry the artist name.
