Hint:A noun is a term that acts as the name of a single entity, such as living beings, locations, actions, attributes, states of nature, or ideas, or a collection of things. The noun, however, is not a semantic category and can therefore not be defined in terms of its meaning.

Complete answer:
Let us define the quantifiable noun first. 'Songs' is the noun in the sentence here. It's a countable noun in plural.

For uncountable nouns, 'Much' is mostly used. Therefore, it can not be seen here.
'More' is a term used specifically for reference. It is used to illustrate that there is more of the present quantity than the previous one; it is greater. But the phrase is not a comparative phrase.
'Most' will take all the current songs into account and that's not what the sentence expresses.
'Most' will take all the current songs into account and that's not what the sentence expresses.
To denote quantity, a certain number, 'Many' is mainly used.
Option D, therefore, is the correct answer.

Additional Information:
 Proper nouns vs. common nouns
Whether a noun is a proper noun or a common noun is one essential distinction to be made. A proper noun is, and is often capitalised, a particular name of a person, place, or object.

Hence the correct answer is option ‘D’

Note:The basic understanding about the concept of nouns and specially Countable and uncountable nouns will help you to answer this type of question.
