There are those songs which speak to your core that you can't help but sing along to them. These songs are a part of our lives wherever we are and knowing the lyrics of these songs are as mandatory as knowing the national anthems of our respective countries. Actually knowing the lyrics to these songs is not from memorizing, but from the fact that they are super easy to remember as the beat and the rhythm that go along with these songs have made it so that we do not forget them. From cricket, rugby and football matches these songs are played all over the world at world cups and championships.
CCR's Have You Ever Seen The Rain is numero uno on this list as it is a clear classic and an unforgettable anthem. All of them are Rock with most of them leaning towards Pop Rock.
