Dirty Dancing - (I've Had) The Time Of My Life
Dirty Dancing - Time Of My Life (I've Had), The
Dirty Dancing - The Time Of My Life (I've Had)
Dirty Dancing - Time Of My Life (I've Had)

Soundtrack - (I've Had) The Time Of My Life
Movies - (I've Had) The Time Of My Life
(iterations for both above)

And so on and so on......I have seen all of these listings over the years.

This is one of the trickiest aspects of managing karaoke music songlists - making sure tracks are discoverable.
Kiosks and other digital songbooks are far superior to printed books in this respect because you can search for pieces.

Chris, I've fixed that in my software/database. Every song has only one way of being spelled.

I'm not quite ready for beta testing yet, but if you send me a list of your songs (juke or excel preferred), I'll be happy to run it through and clean it up for you.

Medley, Bill & Jennifer Warnes - (I've Had) The Time Of My Life

using kiosk they can search by any part of that so no need for other ways.
