# Editing tags Tags store various metadata about the song. You can read about the most common tags [here](https://karedi.gitbook.io/karedi/next-level/txt-file-format/tags). The list of currently defined tags with their values can be viewed in the [tags editor](https://karedi.gitbook.io/karedi/user-interface/upper-components/tags-editor).
Tag editor lets you [add ](https://karedi.gitbook.io/karedi/user-interface/upper-components/tags-editor#adding-a-new-tag)and [edit ](https://karedi.gitbook.io/karedi/user-interface/upper-components/tags-editor#editing-tag-value)any tags - both standard and custom ones. All standard tags' values are validated. Instead of using tag editor, you can also edit tags from the main menu as described below. ## Adding & editing tags via menu {% hint style="info" %} Standard tags like artist, title, filename tags, bpm, gap, start, end & medley tags can also be edited via dedicated menu options in more convenient way.
