Q: iCloud Library matches incorrect version of song

Hello,

 

I recently purchased a couple of personalized CDs for my son.  They are character CDs (Disney and Sesame Street) which sing his name in the songs.  This has created a unique problem with iTunes.  When I rip those CDs to my iTunes library on my PC, the application immediately tries to match the songs.  (I am an Apple Music and iTunes Match member.)  Once matching is complete, I'm left with the correct version on my PC, but a version with an incorrect name in the songs in my iCloud library.  Furthermore, because I'm an Apple Music member using iCloud Library on my family's devices, I can't manually sync my music to my son's touch. It basically wants me to utilize iCloud Library to transfer any music to it. 

 

Is there a way that I can either:

1. Force iTunes match to upload the song from my PC rather than matching it?  If this is possible, how would I go about doing it?

 

2. Set iTunes to completely skip this song now and future whenever I match my library?

 

Thanks!
