So the article "The" confused her and she tried to guess what song I was requesting. Perhaps if I had added "by Gladys Knight and the Pips" she would have gotten it right.
Another quirk is that some popular songs were recorded by more than one artist. Occasionally I will request a song and get a strange version I never knew existed. So I now try to say, "Alexa play [SONG TITLE] by [ARTIST]."

I've noticed the same thing. I prefer brevity and sometimes Alexa punishes me for it
