Thank Ahmet, I did that, it kinda worked (not as well as expected) the
document with ringtone was the 1st match, it was moved to the 2nd position,
I was expecting it to be at very bottom. Tried other factors for boosting
up to 10E6 but no success.
Another issue, is that I have some bad words I really would like to
penalize like: ringtone, instrumental, cover, tribute, and they appear on
multiple fields. I was wondering if there's a better way of doing this
instead of creating a big bq string like:
(*:* -song:ringtone)^100 (*:* -album:ringtone)^100 ... and so on.
Cheers

The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the
rational mind is a faithful servant. We have
created a society that honors the servant and
has forgotten the gift.
