In 1995, No Doubt was on the brink of collapse. After nearly a decade of struggling in the Southern California ska scene and the tragic loss of a founding member, the group faced their most intimate threat: the painful breakup of lead singer Gwen Stefani and bassist Tony Kanal. Yet, out of that heartbreak came "," a power ballad that didn't just top the charts—it defined an era. From Love Song to Heartbreak Anthem

Artists like Carly Rae Jepsen and the cast of Glee have brought their own flavors to the ballad.

Japanese band Coldrain and the band New Years Day have both offered heavier takes on the track.

Postmodern Jukebox recorded a 60s-style version featuring Haley Reinhart.
