Hazarding some thoughts ..

Assuming artists in col C, titles in col D, from row2 down
and assuming say, all titles' text carry a symbol, eg: @text1, @texxxt2, etc
which distinguishes these from artists' (text without @)

Then we could try something like this:

in E2:
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("@",C2)),D2,C2)

in F2:
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("@",C2)),C2,D2)

Select E2:F2, copy down. This will gather all text with @ in col F (titles),
and all text wo @ (artists') in col E. We could then copy cols E and F and
overwrite cols C and D with a paste special as values, then delete cols E and
F. If there's no way to distinguish between artists' text and titles' text,
then the only way is manual.
