[Poll #1546705]

The last entry was Artist: Track - Album and that felt weird.

This is Ar: Al - Tr - though it's too long to fit, so I've taken out all the extra spaces and still can't fit it all.

Me too:

"Track" - Artist

I would like to see:

Track - Artist (Album)

In a list, like on a mix, "Track -- Artist."
In a sentence, "Artist's 'Track'." If album is somehow significant, then "'Track," from Artist's album 'Album'." Often the same song appears on multiple albums, but sometimes you care whether you're referring to the version from the live album or the studio album.

Artist - Track (Album, Year)

I like sort orders which cascade down in significance. Who is it by? Where is it from? What's it called? Or: What year is it? What month is it? What day is it?

(I do not like it that the ampersand in your current music field is not surrounded by spaces. That's just crude... :) )

I'm there with the cascading significance. Same reason that anything but Year/Month/Day seems wrong to me. I've been broken by directory sorting behavior...

Track - Artist. Album's not really necessary. It's more the kind of thing people can just ask about in a comment.
