Hey how do you not get copyrighted for putting their music in the videos?

Sometimes it's a hit or miss, but recently I found
this where you can search a song and it will tell you if you can use it or not. I have a few videos on my youtube that had to be muted because youtube didn't have that policy page set up yet and there was no way of knowing if I could use a certain song or not. The only songs I've ever had a problem with was Taylor Swift's newer music and Hotel California by The Eagles so far. I kept those videos up despite the fact they're muted, but have a link in the comments and the description on them to the same exact video on vimeo like
this one for example so that people can watch it with the music since vimeo isn't as picky.
Another thing is, I don't monetize my videos - If I did they'd probably all be demonetized anyway for having music in it that isn't my own.
