“What was that song from the commercial I saw ages ago again?” “I want to know the details of that song I heard in a recent commercial.” If you love music, you’ve probably had these thoughts at least once.

And ‘tear-jerkers’ doesn’t just mean ballads—enjoy a wide range of classics gathered from various angles, from hopeful, up-tempo pop to rock numbers steeped in melancholy.
