So, back in my early Youtube days, I added a Dave Matthews song to a video I had made. It's never been an issue, I just couldn't monetize the video. But now, I want to replace the audio on those few videos from those early days where I did something like that.

I have chosen a song from Youtube's library of songs that I want to use. It's slightly shorter than the length of the video, but I'm fine if there's a few seconds of silence at the end of the video.

So, getting to the point, I first erased the song I had added originally. (I have checked - the video is silent when played) Now I am trying to add the new song. When I add it and the preview of the video plays, the new song plays, but when it ends the old Dave Matthews cuts in at that point.

?

I waited a few days to see if the old song would get erased from the system. But it keeps happening.

A simple solution would be to find and use a longer song. Am I overlooking something? Has anyone experienced this?
