For many of these songs, we have even forgotten who the author or musician was who created the original version. Here are some of the most sensational cases.

Boy bands have always been an institution in music. Over the decades, the definition of a boy band has changed and evolved from a real youth band to a simple vocal group. 

The well-known Rolling Stone magazine asked its readers to vote for their top ten favourite boy bands and then compiled and published their ranking, based on this poll. 

Here, according to Rolling Stone, are the 10 best boy bands of all time, always bearing in mind that there is nothing more subjective than music and everyone has, inevitably and rightly, their own personal Top 10.

Puns, references to events of the past or random terms: often behind the birth of the name of some of the most famous band in the world there are very curious anecdotes.

When a band becomes famous, the name by which everyone knows it may not have been the first choice in the initial phase of the band's life.

In fact, in addition to the band members, one of the most important decisions for a band is the name to be used. The name is the first detail that represents the band; it must be impressive, it must mean something and it must remain in the hearts and memories of the fans.  

Many famous bands, which have now become historical, opted for a different name at the beginning of their career: here are some of the most famous examples.

In its issue 931 of 18 September 2003, the well-known music magazine Rolling Stone published a list of the 100 best guitarists of all time. The list is mostly made up of American rock, blues and jazz guitarists, and although there are some of the best artists in the history of music, some feel that certain positions are unfair. 

The list was later revised by Rolling Stone after eight years: in particular, the new ranking was published in the 8 December 2011 issue. Here are the top 20 places. 

Of course, there is nothing more subjective than music, which means that this list does not necessarily indicate whether one musician is better than the other in absolute terms, but everyone will always have their own personal and unquestionable opinion.

They climbed the charts, their songs are very famous and recognizable by the first note, but the success lasted only the time of that song.

The term One-Hit Wonder refers to musicians capable of achieving only one hit during their career, and then no longer replicating those results, ending up gathering consensus only in their country of origin or little more.

Music would be meaningless without the support of live events: for a musician or band today, a tour is crucial for its earnings.

Over the decades, there have been memorable tours, even lasting for more than a year, in which singers have toured the world, earning considerable revenues.

The AFI, American Film Institute is an independent nonprofit organization created by National Endowment for the Arts that aims to promote and protect film works, particularly those in the United States.

AFI over the years has produced numerous film-related rankings, such as those for the 100 Best Movies, 100 Best Heroes, and 100 Best Antagonists.

Preply, an online platform dedicated to e-learning, conducted a study on the fan bases of bands and solo singers to find out the predominant emotion that characterises the audience, from sadness to anger to happiness and love. 

To conduct this research, Preply analysed over 200,000 posts and comments on forums and social networks using a dataset called 'Emotion'. The latter identified emotion-related words and phrases in the communities and the results then showed how frequently these words are linked to certain emotions. 

Here is Preply's list, which ranked the bands with the fans that tend to be the happiest.

Many songs are full of symbolic references, allusions, lyrics that seem on the surface to be about love, for example, when this is not the case.

Frequently, it is the musicians themselves who clarify the true meaning of their lyrics. Here are some of the most famous examples of songs whose meaning is often misunderstood by listeners.

All the most successful artists and bands sooner or later release one or more 'greatest hits', a collection of their greatest musical achievements. 

The 'Greatest Hits' is a key moment in the career of musicians, as it can mark the end of a specific artistic phase, the break-up of a band or the recapitulation of a glorious recording career. 

Sometimes 'Greatest Hits' also include previously unreleased material and in any case can achieve very high sales figures, even higher than albums containing only previously unreleased songs. Here are some of the most successful 'Greatest Hits' in music history.

Although today music is listened to almost exclusively digitally, there was a time when, in order to sell physical records, it was also important to make iconic covers.

Music in fact is art in all respects and it is not only the tracks that count, but also the images: throughout history, unique covers have been made, full of stories and legends about their creation.

Here are ten historical covers, represented by photographs or realised through graphics, and the stories behind their creation.

Among the rankings published by the well-known US magazine 'Rolling Stone' is one of the 100 best drummers of all time.

In making this list, 'Rolling Stone' took into consideration above all the ability of the various drummers to enhance songs and their ability to become innovators in the use of this musical instrument.
