    I had no idea that the Jose Gonzalez version of this song was a cover... it sounded so natural and for years now I had associated this song with a sad part of my life. It's kind of wild that now, when I'm happier and healthier, I find the original version of this song and it matches these happy brief moments I find every day. Life is strange!!!!!

      Thanks for making me think about the lyrics more. Ten days of perfect anything will certainly put your heart in the right place for love, and since music says so much with so little, I guess that's a whole lot of perfect to start any relationship off with. Those relationships often start with some acquaintance gifting you a mix tape, or CD, or I guess just sharing a playlist these days.

    I like both the original version and the Jose Gonzalez version. I heard this one first. When I heard the JG version, I thought "what an interesting take on the song, I would have never imagined anyone to take it in this direction." I love covers, especially out of genre covers. What I like the most is that the two songs give me different feelings. The K version gives me a sense of happiness, while the JG version conveys a sense of melancholy. I don't know which side of a quarter is better, I'm just happy to be a whole quarter richer.

    My husband left to come back to his home when our relationship was in its infancy. We spent our last night together and this song popped up on one of his Playlists. Was one of the most emotional moments we've shared. We're very level. This song reminds me I never want to feel like that again. I couldn't listen to it again until reconnected a couple months later. I moved halfway across the country to be with him. We're pregnant after 6 years of the best times ever. Reminds me how lucky I am. I can't imagine how many miles stones this is a track for world wide.

He decided the city was not for him, and that being away from his family was very hard. After he left... I hated being away from him, so I moved. We spent 2 years getting to know eachother before we made a leap. When I moved... we were committed. We've been together for a long time.
