Aha.... This site is cool !  :-)
I tried Chega de Saudade (No more blues) and it found in the first
try !
I tried Stella three times and it was able to find it.
Among the tunes in the thirdy try for Stella, it brought Nirvana's
"Smells like teen spirit".  :-)

I would not say that it's a software fault only, as my singing
sucks. :-)
