Seeking app to update some fields in large spreadsheet/CSV of metadata

I have a large spreadsheet of song titles and artist. I'd like to update the spreadsheet with genre and year-released info. There are about 20K records in the spreadsheet.

I've found a few tagging programs that claim to be able to import a csv file and update the fields via freedb.org, but I can't get any of them to work. I've tried TheGodfather, Mp3Tag Pro and MP3BookHelper.

Does anyone know of a way to update such a text list of song titles?

I found something that I think will work. Music Collector by Collectorz.com. It lets me import csv files and then does an automatic search for the metadata. Unfortunately, it can't seem to handle importing so many records at a time. I'm only able to import about 1000 records at a time, but I have a solution for now.
