I love this song, it's a little sad, the story, but the instruments make up for it, and so do the lyrics. It gets within the soul. So beautiful. The singing contrasts very well, with the sound.
Hmmm - it was a little distracting because I couldn't really understand the lyrics - but yes - from the rhythm you can tell it's a bit of a melancholy statement been made - I think the guitar playing is phenomenal though.
