If your video contains copyrighted music for which you were not the composer, performer and record producer, you would need a license.
Publication of music without a license can also be a federal crime, not to mention being sued for statutory damages of up to $150,000 in federal court.
The internet hosting site may also remove the violation, terminate your account and ban you from the site for life.
Dramatic intro music can be found on YouTube as well as on iTunes. Dramatic intro music is usually used to introduce a scary or unusual scene in a movie or drama production.

copyright of music belongs to the sound recording company, composer and lyrics writer if the music is quite old (mozart etc) you can publish it, otherwise it is a copyright infringement to publish music on youtube without the owners permission The best way to avoid copyright infringement on YouTube is to post only content that is entirely your original work.
Instrumental music is protected by copyright, but YouTube's automated matching system may not immediately catch an unlicensed use. See YouTube's copyright polices at the link below for more information.
Some music videos are removed due to the copyright owner claiming the video as their property and demanding the YouTube user to take down the video. Most music videos on YouTube are user-uploaded and not all of those videos have permission from the copyright holders to be uploaded and used on YouTube, which results in copyright complaints and videos getting removed.
Adding music to YouTube without the permission of the copyright holder is illegal. YouTube will notify you when you upload to YouTube if you are violating someone's copyright so you can remove the file. The offending file will be deleted as will the YouTube account of someone who repeatedly ignores copyrights. (See links below)

That's what the term "copyright" means, that the work in question (musical or otherwise) belongs to someone and cannot be copied without the permission of the owner (who normally wants to be paid).
If a song is on iTunes, chances are that there is somebody who holds the copyright rights to the song. If a song is copyrighted by someone somewhere other than YouTube, then the copyright will still apply when the content becomes available and able to be viewed on YouTube.
You cannot put commercial music created by someone else on YouTube as it breaks the copyright agreements. You agreed not to do this when you signed up for a YouTube account. YouTube uses special software that can identify music that is protected by copyright and will remove the audio from your video. If they have to keep doing this on your account you will be blocked from using YouTube. (See links below)
