https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary - Copyright free music, you should be able to earn ad revenue with these as well.

https://www.youtube.com/music_policies - You won't get a strike, but these guys will take your ad revenue, and your song may be banned in certain countries, normally Germany.

Now think up a song that you can adjust your video to, so you can get a kill in tune, and search for it.

I actually alredy did (Zella Day - Compass (Louis The Child Remix)) but i got exactly that (my video got banned in Germany) and stuff like i cant get money of it,but i just want to create like those videos and not to take money from ad's and stuff like that.

Then feel free to use the links I provided above, if you click on the song it tells you if it will be banned in certain countries. Also, check your video statistics, how many Germans are watching? Because if it's not many/none you can probably use a banned in Germany song.

Not only does YT have their crappy free audio library but there is a world of freely available CC licensed music on the web, even CC licensed music that allows you to use it for commercial purposes with some stipulations.

Here's something to ponder. If your super awesome video absolutely has to have a copyrighted song to be both super and awesome, perhaps it isn't as great as you think it is.

Focus on making great videos. Then worry about the music. But don't worry too much about the music.

Ok thanks :)

Btw, http://www.newgrounds.com/audio, great source for CC licensed music that mostly doesn't suck. Just gotta use the right keywords when you search.
