If that is the accurate representation of the title then it could be that the correct spelling "Ma He's Makin' Eyes At Me" (with an added apostrophe following "makin") improves the result. Like that the online search in Discogs found the track.

That is if the artist or title has punctuation symbols in it. example - Hi-Gloss - I'm Totally Yours will fail but Hi-Gloss - Im Totally Yours will not fail note the apostrophe on i'm strangely this isnt always the case for example human league don't you want me works. it maybe to do with the song title being an album track rather than a release. hope this helps...
