I loved it when it was out but it's so overplayed, I don't listen to it anymore and I change the dial when it comes on the Hot AC station.

I like it because it's so casual. There's no high point in the song but there's also no low point. It just goes on and that's why it's good.

Weird, this song just popped into my head last night (and I haven't even heard it in a few years).
I like it.

I really like it.
I wish he was a little more consistent though, I'm not a big fan of his albums.

I really love this song, and almost as much as this, "Wishful Thinking."

Yes.
I think this was the only song on any of the R&R charts to only peak at #3 on the weekly survey but still come out at #1 for the year.

Never cared much for it when it came out but I've grown to like it ever since.

As I remember, it took this song quite a while to climb the charts... got to my #1 position and ended the year as my #10 song...

Definitely a breezy kind of song and sounds great on radio, but until you've checked out Duncan's other CD's and/or seen him in concert - he is quite a guitarist - you won't realize what a trifle of a song it is (and, honestly, one of his least impressive).

My favorite song by Duncan Sheik. "She Runs Away", "On A High", and "Half-Life" are good too.

I don't hate this, but I've never really been a fan.

Still a staple for me when I'm in the mood for good adult contemporary.

<3 this song is perfect, why Duncan never really got much acclaim after this is dumb. Even the whole album it stems from is good from start to finish. lol not too long ago I was on a binge of listening to it.. and ugh just perfect.
