Think Creep (Acoustic), The Dog Days are Over, A Sign of The Times. It's all something deep and special that I can't exactly place, but it hits you like a god damn train sometimes.

Do they get to the crescendo? I don't know much about music but trying my hand and took some course and there was a comment 'listen to this one it sounds like it's building the entire song' but the song never gets there. Bit melancholy/sad type tones chord progression but seems like it's epic in its sound. Course the epic part may be due to the composer knowing his stuff but the idea was a chord progression that kept building to nowhere.

So curious of that sounds about right for your description. I forget the name but when the instructor put a link I was like oh yeah that song, like lots of movies or probably commercials used similar for the emotion. À

Just be cool to know another name if that sounds right is all. Enjoy finding more examples to compare and notice what makes the sound (even if I can't reproduce it)

I feel like that describes half of Elton john's music
