Even a handsome guy like Jon Bon Jovi sings clingy, lovesick songs like this one, which makes him feel more relatable.

As a piece of music it’s excellent too—a cool track featuring his soaring vocals.

The music video is also brimming with Jon’s charm.

It’s a very beautiful melody and a song that’s widely loved in 11 countries around the world.

It even became a hot topic in commercials.

But actually, it’s quite the heartbreak song.

The lyrics are about bumping into his girlfriend on the subway, and once you know that, the word “beautiful” somehow starts to feel a bit sad.

By the way, about the music video—it looks really cold.

It’s fine to watch in the heat of summer, but in winter it gives you a bit of a chill.

A song to encourage a heartbroken girl.

Even among Mr.

BIG’s British hard rock repertoire, this one is a rare pop tune.

I imagine many girls would love to be comforted like this.

Sing it to a girl who’s feeling down.

Am I the only one who realizes that the lyrics of great Western pop songs often feature the telephone? They skillfully use the “phone” as a device to express longing and frustration.

Ne-Yo, in particular, is truly masterful at this.

As both a top-tier songwriter and producer, he’s blessed with talent and superb taste, and you can feel that vividly in this track.

It’s a song with a deeply nostalgic vibe, and anyone who loves the ’60s–’70s will definitely be moved to tears.

The distinctive synthesizer sound will undoubtedly pierce your heart.

As it builds toward the latter half, it gradually brings the tears on, so take your time, listen closely, have a good cry, and feel refreshed.

Whether one takes this song as whiny or as bittersweet yet beautiful depends on the listener.

The lyrics are entirely in the first person, almost like a monologue.

The band Snow Patrol has a relentless dedication to their performance in pursuit of beautiful melodies.

This song evokes the clear, deep winter snow and puts you in a poetic mood.
