    Listened to this song before but never got into it. Until now. And yes I'm here because of Sherlock [7]. Alone on the Water was so completely heart wrenching. I'm still fighting back tears an hour after reading the fanfic and watching the video for the first time.

    Да шляпа а не песня, "Jar of Hearts" красивше. Я так понимаю за эту песню тут только те пишут кто смотрел этот говно сериал про "вампиров". Я лично эту шляпу ни одну часть не видел и смотреть не собираюсь этот убогий ширпотреб.
