can't remove copyrighted audio

so i have had video which apparently has copyrighted audio for the last few weeks. But, every time i go to remove the song it just says error. any advice? other than taking the video down....
 
The audio removal tool has a really hard time removing audio that isn't a strong central focus of a production. So if it's a background track being matched and you're talking over it, you'll often get an error. I've had this happen with Watch Dogs and the only option was to take it down and kill the game audio track for 30 seconds or so. Luckily, I record game audio and vocals separately so the whole thing wasn't lost.
 
I have stuck with same error on one game video (background music).
However all other times copyrighted song removal tool was working perfectly.

I hope Youtube will improve this tool and later it will be able to remove that song too :)
(i would delete and re-upload video with muted sound, but unfortunately the video was with no content ID match for several months and appeared not long time ago, when the video became relatively popular)
