What a touching masterpiece! From the wonderful Katie Melua AND the brilliant songwriter Mike Batt, whom I, I confess, only became aware of through this text. The song captivates from the first to the last note, but two passages particularly touch me: "Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen". For me, a 58 year old romantic, the difference between 22 and 17 seemed marginal, but for a very young person there is obviously a world in between! And then: "And now I know That there's a link between the two Being close to craziness, and being close to you ". Wow. There is no better way to express it!
Love the words, love the tune, love your beautiful voice and singing. Thank you for creating and sharing your work with us. You make the world a better place with your delightful compositions.
Pure and beautiful,what a voice so perfect, sends chills down my spine.This song can bring one to tears to my eyes, remembering the perfect love that was once mine and lost.
Oh so romantic and beautiful and as always like the relationships we cherish so heartbreaking at times and yet so wonderful. This song is performed and musically arranged like only the best songs could ever be. Katie's voice sounds simply divine.
This is one of the most beautiful voices that I've ever heard.I can say that it has somehing magical in her voice.I've just found her.Really beautiful,love Katie :)
I liked this song when it came out, haven’t heard it for at least ten years, just stumbled across it again, my word it has got be one of the best songs ever written.
I first heard this beautiful song when my 10 year old daughter, Stacie, sang it whilst playing in her bedroom... I had tears running down my face. Love it so much x
This song is beautiful, it holds you close when you're feeling down, it let's you know you're not the only one who could ever feel sad and when you do have a true love who does treat you right, like I do, it reminds you how blessed you are!
I was in a residential behaviour school (UK) during my childhood. The headteacher bought me a CD player and made me a CD called "Hadens chill music". This was one of the songs included. I only really appreciate the true deep meaning of this beautiful song as an adult. Thank you Chip, for your dedication to one of many students under you're care.
Beautiful and astounding words, Katie's beautiful voice and also a beautiful song. Without any doubt this song says so much of love. Not for a minute do i think there is any denying any of this!
LOVE THIS SONG FROM DAY ONE I HEARD IT BACK MANY YEARS, LOVE LOVE IT, SO TRUE WORDS FOR YOUR TRUE LOVE "HOW CAN YOU MAKE ME FALL APART, THEN BREAK MY FALL WITH LOVING LIES" BEAUTIFUL SONG
so articulate in making the contrast that struck the right chord in your heart, love the lyrics, melody is excellent and her voice is so sweet,The whole arrangement is perfect,..
ატვირთულია 2008 წლის 8 აგვისტოს. ზუსტად იმ დღეს, რომელიც არცერთ ქართველს არ დაავიწყდება.. ღმერთმა გვიმრავლოს ქეთისნაირი ნიჭიერი და სამაგალითო ადამიანები..საქართველოს სჭირდება ასეთი ხალხი! Katie, Georgia misses you
I love this song and think it is totally gorgeous just like Katie, but how about asking a little question? If this song had entered the Euro-Vision for the UK would this have finished in the top ten? It is a truly beautiful song and of course was a number one hit song for Katie, and I know that it has no connection with the Euro-Vision but with it's fine melody and meaningful lyrics could it have made an impression on the Euro-Vision voting public? Guess we will never know if this song could ever have win the Euro-Vision final or scored heavily for the UK but it is certainly something to think about.
My dear mother’s birthday tomorrow 25/6....She’d have been 87.....This was her favourite song before she died in 2004....Always cry when listening but so beautiful....RIP Mamie ❤️✨
aisah edelwise I know how you feel because I felt the same..First was like a heaven,but then we break up..and after so many years I cant faling in love,like then..Finaly I exepted my loneliness..like you I founded peace in me..

I remember dancing to this song with my mum when I was three. Now, being twenty, this song hits me with strong emotions.
the same ^^ but not at 3
