I have a list of 500 songs, and need to create a list of links to the appropriate YouTube videos that go with them. You'll be searching the title and artist on YouTube, finding the best video and entering the identifier found in the link (for instance: Qwi_3FVITw0). More details inside.
## Deliverables
I can send you the list of songs with unique identifiers in .csv, tab, or Filemaker database. If it helps, I can combine the title of the song and artist, so you can paste that into your searches. Your challenge will be finding the best link for each song, using these guidelines:
Official Videos are best (example: [login to view URL])
Next best are live performances by the artist (example: [login to view URL])
Next best are studio versions of the song with user created videos (example: [login to view URL])
Do not use cover versions unless there is nothing else available.
Some songs may not be available, and those you can leave blank.
You will return the list of 500 songs in either Excel or Filemaker, with fields for the unique identifier, song and artist, and the ID found in the link. To clarify, we don't want the entire link ([login to view URL]), just the identifier at the end of the link (EQCi6ASHVUM).
You will need some understanding of music for this project. Any questions, please ask.
