Stock music player, anyway to get it to ignore "the" in artist name

[jennysmate]

I love the S3's stock music player, but having ,say, The Beatles listed under T, is a pain. Is there a work around for this?
I know other players do it, but I havent found any other that has an alphabet search bar. I have a large collection and its much easier going directly to Z than scrolling down through every artist.
