Thinking this can make the Top 15/Top 10; not sure about much more.

Musically this is decent (I prefer the radio mix), but his voice... That's gonna take a while to get used to. I'm sure this will become a hit like "The A Team" though.

His voice takes a while to get used to, but this is so good. I'm looking forward to this, Drake's newest, and "Wake Me Up" dominating fall.

IKR? The voice can't help but remind me of James Blunt and the tragic horror "You're Beautiful" wreaked on the pop scene several years back. Not here for any of that.

Oh, his voice is way more bearable than James Blunt's.

I got into that remix before the original song but truthfully I love both. I haven't been particularly affected one way or another but this "adult alternative revivial" that's been occurring, but this song is special and could have been a hit in any decade. #classic
Will be weird when this hits #1 in January or February of 2014, a year after it dominated Europe.

I thought this was done in the USA after failing to make top 30 on AAA a few months ago, but this is/was a smash everywhere it was released, and there's no reason to no smash in the USA. His voice is a matter of taste, some people love it, some people hate it, but the song is beautiful, and the chart needs great ballads too

It hit #1 in Australia and New Zealand and half of Europe, and #2 in the UK. But my post was predicting this as a #1 in the US, not stating that

I would really love this song if someone else were singing it. His voice is like nails on a chalkboard to me.

I like the song. His voice sounds like it's coming from someone whose head is flattened (like the cartoon Arnold) but I think his accent gives the song charm. He kind of reminds me of Jamea Blunt but with Ed Sheeran to take away the lameness.

I have loved this song since nivekwriter1 started posting it around and nobody knew wtf it was. My motto still stands when I say "good music ultimately prevails". I am really excited to see the US embrace this. I've already introduced a few friends to it and they've also loved it since.

This definitely needs to catch on. Could be a huge surprise hit, especially if the other similar type songs heading up the chart sort of blaze the trail for this one. I could definitely see this being a top ten pop song this winter.

I don't get the love for this at all. I don't hate it, but I just cannot get into this at all. Oh, and all this talk of conquering charts? Ummmmmm......no.
