Uploading College Program with Copyrighted Music

[Sudipta Mukhopadhyay]

Hello guys. I need some help regarding some copyrighted contents.
I have to upload the video of our college program we arranged recently. All the performances were recorded seperately, then I have merged them into one single video to upload it to YouTube. But the problem is, there are some dance performances in which we used some original songs like Toca Toca, Worth It, Uptown Funk etc. I have checked the copyright status of all the songs and YouTube says that they are usable worldwide except a few. Moreover, there are some cover performances of popular songs.
What makes me aware is the fact that YouTube has become too strict nowadays regarding copyright and community guidelines. I know there will be copyright claims from the content owners on my video and those are only for revenue security of them. But still, I am afraid that YouTube may take down the video considering it an infringement case, though I don't think they will.
Please share your thoughts regarding this matter and suggest me what else I should do along with tagging, putting copyright details and legal explanation in the description, and other necessary kinds of stuff.
Any kind of help is appreciated!

I have checked the copyright status of all the songs and YouTube says that they are usable worldwide except a few. !

So what did the other few say? If they say they are not usable then don't do it. The video won't be online very long is they're not.
No matter what, don't monitise the video. I the rights owners decide they want monitise the video then that is down to them. Personally it sounds like too much of a hassle to even bother with.
If your College want the video online then let them start a channel and take the risk.

YouTube won't do anything to your video unless requested by a third party aka the copyright holder.

what else I should do along with tagging, putting copyright details and legal explanation in the description

It's useless.
