Glad you found it, Matt.

FWIW, I find it helpful to enclose linked words either in quotation marks or in brackets - e.g., "Almost Afraid To Love" or [Almost Afraid To Love].

If the title of my video is a common one, I also find it helpful to include in the title space the name of the performer(s) and also things like songwriter(s) names.    If I've included the lyrics of a song, I also put that, in parentheses, in the title.

And if it's a video of a Mudcatter, I include the term "Mudcatter" (NOT "Mudcat") in the key words. If it's from a festival, e.g., FSGW Getaway or PFS Singtime Frolics, I also use the Festival name as a key word.   Those things help a lot in locating the video in a slew of pages of links.
