Shortcuts for manual entry of song info?

iTunes v 12.9.0.164

MacOS Mojave 10.14.01

MacBook Pro 15-inch, 2018

(my 1st mac)

Adding a couple hundred songs to iTunes and have to enter the song info manually. When adding several tracks from the same album, only 2 or 3 of the 10 items I enter are unique to a track. Is there a shortcut to automate redundant info entry? Better yet, is there an album template/window (vs song window) where the 7 or 8 common items and album artwork are entered only once per album, and just the unique info is entered for tracks 2 and beyond?

Thanks!

You can select multiple items and edit common properties at the same time, then select single tracks to edit them one at a time. CMD+I works to open the Song Info dialog in either case. Tab should take you between fields.
