Compilation of Sad BGM You've Heard Somewhere [Famous]
Have you ever been watching a video on YouTube and thought, “Wait, I’ve heard this BGM in someone else’s video too”? Since there are only so many sites that distribute free audio tracks, it’s inevitable that the same songs get used a lot.
What I’m about to introduce are those sad, melancholic BGMs that make you think, “I’ve heard this somewhere before.” As mentioned, the selection ranges widely from free audio tracks to classical masterpieces.
Now then—how many of these pieces do you know?
