Getting more specific results

I use words in the Comments field as a way to create very specific playlists. For instance, to create a constantly updating list of songs by my favorite French female pop singers I do this...

Create a Smart Playlist:


Match all the following conditions:
Comment contains Female
Comment contains French
Genre is Pop
Last Played is not in the last 1 days
Limit to 25 songs selected by random
Live updating

Since many artists/songs are cross-genre, this method can be quite useful. Adding multiple genres per artist/song to the Comments field greatly increases control.

I've just started doing this and find it very handy; I now have smart playlists for cardio and weight work in the gym adding these words to the "Comments" fields of appropriate tracks.
