I love this song! For a while it was my favorite song on THOE. I thought it was a wonderful departure from the usual, and it sounded beautiful and full of passion.

And how HIGH her voice goes in the beginning. I can't tell if that's digitally raised or if she was actually able to hit those notes.

I can reach those notes...it's about the same as in angels, but it's also easier to hit notes while singing "AH" than actual words.

Doesn't it go way higher than in Angels? I mean, I can hit the Angels note fine if I try. But I can only get the lowest note she hits during the really high part and that takes a LOT of trying.

Are you talking about the "ahhs"? I'm a bit...it might be higher than angels..the only note in angels I can't hit is "now we have reached the end" which is I think very much similar notes. It does sound higher, I think it is compressed to sound clearer, and crisper.

LOL!

I guess "aaah"ing just opens up my throat a lot so it's a ton easier to sing those notes. hehe

I think it'd make a great song for a promo video or something. Just the chorus though. Maybe a verse when it first starts out and someone's talking or something. But I can just picture it. And if I didn't fail so much at making videos, I'd make it.

This is becoming one of my favorite songs period. The lyrics are just I guess for lack of better term deep. After watching this on Black Symphony it gave me another meaning for this song for my own life especially relating it with the visuals and everything. The song already to me was like an outcry to a person that has hurt you in a serious way and let you down let you are still calling to them with tears in your eyes yet deep down wondering why you would call out to this person who had hurt you so badly. The visuals in BS showed me another meaning, one that really cuts deep to me, like it's crying out to god saying WTF god you let me down but I'm still crying out to you though you let me get hurt saying you'd never abandon me but look what happened. This song has so many thoughts entwined in it and I love how I can truly relate it to my own experiences in those ways.

I know what you mean. I really relate to it too. I saw in an interview that it's Sharons favourite song to preform XD Makes me happy because it is a favourite of mine.
