Please note:
All beauty is subjective. There is no such thing as a true "Top Ten" list. Each piece holds its own beauty and is neither better nor worse than others. Also, unless it has singing, it is not technically a song. The title of this video is merely meant to help an average person find it, so that beautiful music, and the incredible depth of beauty that comes with it, will be discovered and felt by more people. Also, there is a second video with more songs and composers which I couldn't fit into this video (see above link).
