This has got to be the most beautiful obsessed stalker song ever. Doesnt matter what the song means the lyrics, vocals and instruments just came to perfectly great song even after many years.

Did you know this song is requested as the first dance at over 40,000 weddings annually in the UK.... staggering statistic that only goes to prove that nobody ever listens to the lyrics!!! :-)
