Looking for feedback about the labelling of my YouTube videos. Is it best for the video title to be as brief as possible, as in only the song title (e.g. Blow the Man Down), or would it be better to add a descriptor, like "sea shanty" after the title? For example, Blow the Man Down (sea shanty). For songs that have a reference number (e.g. Child or Roud #), is it better to include that in the title or video description?
