i love this song
simple but beatuiful
well, someone said it is too flat for a ballad
but read the lyric
she is a great singer with soul!
p.s i always love her live rip ver more than studio ver
esp the Memorial Address from ARENATOUR 03-04
GORGEOUS!

I really like the song...she is a little more precise sounding on this version of course. But like you said, its a strong ballad. However...i dont think it tops HEAVEN.

I normally love ballads that have a climax, but I love JEWEL anyway. It's so pretty!

Sounds like a beautiful ballad though I admit the lack of climax dissapointed me.

I think people even preferred HEAVEN to alterna at the time of release.. :O
A lot of people was like 'whatever' about alterna at the start, it seemed. It took some time before it grew into peoples minds. To me, now, it is easily the best song on (miss)understood, and also the most high quality one.

No way to say is a very nice song. I don't think they're very similar, but if you think so, why is that a bad thing?

Great song. omg, I was playing this song in the library on the computer (I had to print out my essay and I don`t have a printer at home) and this one boy kept on looking at me. LOL. He had this "wtf?" expression on his face. I can`t help but laugh now. I told him it was Japanese and he didn`t even say anything. LOL

Just wow.

I'm listening to the song right now, and it's.. Touching. I love it. I LOVE IT. I felt like crying for some reason when I heard that piano play..

So much emotion released by this song does add to it's value.

Maybe it's all the saved up grief from the 5 month news draught we had.

No way to say was more edgier, with the electric guitar and more mid-tempo. Jewel belongs IMO, in the Rainy Day and Teddy Bear category. I think an extremely dramatic ending would just feel out of place.

Now I think about it, it does remind me a lot of Teddy Bear.
