Mismatch in iTunes

"Das Model" by Kraftwerk is matching as "Wouldn't it be nice" by the Beach Boys. I already deleted the song and uploaded it again. Does anybody know why this occurs and how to fix it? Thanks!

Hi,

This error has been around since Match was introduced in 2011. Until the database is corrected, there is nothing you can do other than purchase the correct English version from iTunes which is what I had to do. I have a vinyl rip from the 12" single of Das Model (German version) and this was uploaded.

You could contact iTunes http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html

Thank you! To be honest, it's a shame that they didn't fix the bug up to now. 😠 I pay for the service and I'm not willing to buy the "correct" version from iTunes. If the mismatch would appear with an obscure underground band nobody knows, I would accept it. But with the "Das Model", one of Kraftwerk's most famous songs? I assume that hundereds of other users have the same problem.
