I like it! Great tip that I not been using. Go figure. Will be using it now for sure. Thanks.

After clicking on the Request Tab in Multi-Picker, it took me to the forum topic of Songs to add to the Band-in-a-Box Song Titles database in the PGMusic Wish List and of course, that brings up a question from what I just read.

Quote from PGMusic: "This thread is for Pop/Rock/LitePop/type songs. All of these would be starting from 1950s to current.
The songs should be"
- not already present in the song titles database in Band-in-a-Box 2017. You can easily see that, by typing the title in using the StylePicker, or the dedicated Titles Browser
For example, if you type "American Pie" .... and it isn't there, just post a message here, saying
American Pie - Don MacLean
(the artist is optional, though appreciated)
Feel free to add personal comments - remember that we are having fun here, it isn't brain surgery smile
Let's not start adding 'obscure' songs that you think are awesome, but aren't know by a wide audience.
The test is, would a person familiar with the genre and the decade recognize this song?
The point here is that you wouldn't want to be browsing a titles database if it had a bunch of obscure songs. We're at 8,000 songs now, and they are roughly equal (country=pop=jazz). So based on that, you'd have to consider the song that you're recommending to be in the top 3,000 of the country or pop or jazz genre.

"We will update the database with the songs you recommend."

Main Question: How often is this database updated? If I request a rock song to be added on January 1st of 2026 and PGMusic decides to add the requested song to the Database on January 2nd, do we have to wait until December 1st, when the 2027 version come out, before we see the added song?

It would be nice to get periodic updates throughout the year or even better yet, give the end user the ability to add songs to their own database for their own use. For example, if during the year a user has 20 songs, not currently in the database, that they have found matching styles for, it could be nice if they can be added locally for local use only, similar when the end user creates their own User Style.
