Genius problems with iTunes and Match

itunesitunes-match

I have iTunes (10.6 40) and Match on my mac, as soon as I enabled match my "genius" playlists no longer work.

If I click genius on a track that is playing it says:

Genius is unavailable for the song "Don't Drop It"

I click "Update Genius" and it says that the results have been updated, but never makes it available.

I have over 10K songs, so surely it can find a genius result for a G-Love or Jack Johnson song… but it never does.

Thanks.

Click the iCloud download icon to download the song to the computer you're using, and then try again.

An edit: This has only worked sporadically for me.
