Youtube has an automated content matching system, which is known for giving
occasional false positives, like someone trying to claim bird song field
recordings as music off an album, or in my case one of the more notable is
one of the videos where I had a wireless mic short out, and the brief
period of pops, crackles, etc. apparently matched a recording of 'Burning
Down the House'.
So probably what happened is that it came up with a match in the automated
system, whether it is correct or not I don't know. You can say you
disagree with it should you choose through Youtube's interface, and give a
reason. It may or may not make much difference, so think about it
carefully.
