[@willharwood5543]

The Artist Katie is great, but orchestration of the song is spoilt by needless clack, clack, clack of the percussionist in the 2nd section of the song. It was perfect then just spoilt. I always go to another song on KZbin at that point. It is so annoying.

Goh, what a crush I had on you, Katie, when I first saw this video and heard your divine voice on TV. I was moonstruck. We were of similar age but you were everything how a girl of my dreams would sound, act and look like. You are really "one in a billion", so beautiful and so talented. Bought all the albums, but I my biggest dream was to finally see you live, in my country. For some reason, I never got that lucky, time after time. When last year I read you'd be playing again in Brussels yesterday, I didn't hesitate for a second and told myself I would even go on my own if needed. And wow, how glad I am I did!!! After EXACTLY 20 years.....I don't think I ever took my eyes off you during that amazing concert. And I can tell your new album will be another divine piece of work. Just like you are. That 'crush' I had, went away....it is now just pure love I feel for you, Katie. Out of reach, but never out of sight. My only next wish would be you'd ever come to my hometown and play at the Ghent Jazz Festival.....it is truly MADE for you and I'm sure you'd enjoy it too! Thank you....for being an angel....and giving me an unforgettable evening. Love, Jonathan

Uma balada que me acompanhou num dos períodos mais difíceis da minha vida. Cada palavra ia de encontro a tudo o que sentia na altura: rejeição, desamor, indiferença, infelicidade. E ajudou-me a aguentar todo o sofrimento interior que não podia deixar transparecer, com três filhos pequenos a quem não podia desiludir, de forma nenhuma. Passaram 20 anos precisamente! Estão criados, adultos, nas suas vidas. Acompanhei os seus bons e maus momentos. Continuo aqui para o que ainda precisarem, enquanto eu puder. Obrigada Katy Melua, por esta canção linda, cantada de forma tão sentida, e que por isso chega aos corações de quem precisa! ❤
