Any music you want to manage with iTunes and that includes syncing it to a phone has to be added to your music library. This, however, does not mean you have to physically copy the music files to a different location. You can think of your iTunes music library (same goes for Movies, Tones etc.) as a database which includes links or, if you prefer you could use the term Shortcuts, to the physical copy of the music. It's a bit like shortcuts in Windows. You could have a file called "To Do" on your computer and let's say it's a simple text file with Notes about things you want to do. Now instead of having the actual file on your desktop where maybe you could accidently delete it, you could have it in your My Documents folder. You can then create a Shortcut on your desktop which points to the file To Do.txt in your My Documents folder and if you click the shortcut, the text file opens, but if you accidently deleted the shortcut, your To Do list is still there in your My Documents folder. At the same time, if you moved the To Do.txt file from the My Documents folder to a different location and then clicked on the shortcut, you would get a message that there is a missing link and the file the shortcut is pointing to is not there any more.
In the same way, if you for example add a song that is on an external USB hard drive to your iTunes music library and then disconnect the drive, the song can't be played any more. If you press enter on the song in your iTunes library the program is looking for your external drive and if it can't find it it will show it as a broken link. Now, having said all that, all you have to do to add a song or a bunch of songs from a folder to your iTunes library is to go to the File menu and choose ither to "Add File" or "Add Folder". This will open a fairly familiar Windows dialogue box where you can browse to your song or the folder where your songs are, then activate the "Select" button and after a moment you hear the iTunes tri-tone and at that point your song or songs should be available in your library.
