Default Updating MP3 tags, need a site to help ...

Hi, I'm looking for a database online that can help me fill in details of songs, particularly some older songs that are more difficult to get info about.

example, I'd like to know the year that Bing Crosby recorded 'Would You Like To Swing Upon a Star"

Many sites will list the year the CD of his greatest hits (or whatever) was released, but I'm looking for the year the actual song was originally recorded.

Thanks for any suggestions.

I believe he wants his MP3 tags generated "Automagically".

Maybe Discogs?

I didn't get that sense from his post. He's looking for specific, non-generic information and TuneUp (besides being crap and meaning you have to have itunes, and last time I tried to use it wasn't working with Windows 7!) won't do that. I think he wants somewhere he can look up the info and then input it into his tags. Discogs can be a great place but sometimes they have nothing, and a lot of what they have is very basic. Wiki won't always help, but it's pretty good I feel, especially for the more, ah, obscure or older stuff.
