Curious match result for Blue Mile #100

Thank you for creating this fantastic tool, it works amazingly well. I got only one mismatch when importing my library and I did a little bit of digging but couldn't immediately see why it didn't work:

Spotify:   Blue Mile - Of The Trees - Blue Mile
  Youtube: Rain Sounds: 2 Hour Relaxing Rain Shower - Calmsound - {'name': 'Relaxing Nature Sounds: 24 Hours of Exquisite Nature Sounds for Deep Sleep, Study, Meditation and Mindfulness', 'id': 'MPREb_xSO0uQe2Mom'}

The track in question is: https://open.spotify.com/track/5EIyuLTiZwAmmlsqxdLJC0?si=f1c3738c217c4656

You could try to experiment with various algorithm results. You can do this by using the settings tab on the GUI or you could do this in terminal using: --algo [0,1,2] selecting one of the numbers to use with the command

Here is some information on what the various algorithms do: If yt_search_algo is 0, it simply returns the first song result.

If yt_search_algo is 1, it iterates over the song results and returns the first song that matches the track name, artist name, and album name exactly. If it can't find a match, it raises a ValueError.

If yt_search_algo is 2, it performs a fuzzy match. It removes everything in brackets in the song title and checks for a match with the track name, artist name, and album name. If it can't find a match, it then searches for videos with the track name and artist name. If it still can't find a match, it raises a ValueError.

Therefore, the most accurate for you would be option 1 or 0, however, I'm assuming that you have already tried option 0 so try option 1 and then if all else fails, try option 2 and see if any of the algorithms fix the issue.
