    Dan Wilson, thank you so much for this beautiful rendition of what is in my opinion one of the greatest pieces of American music. When I was a little girl I remember riding in the car with my Dad while we both sang along as this song played on the radio. When I was in college, I learned of the song’s deeper meaning and it made those moments all the more special. This past June, my Father and I danced to it at my wedding. My Dad heard the opening and we cried happy tears the entire way through the song. Thank you for making an acoustic version. It is beautiful and I’m sure it has touched more lives than you know! ❤

    I love the timbre of Dan's voice. Between his pipes, musicianship and song writing skills it confuses me why people who purchased 'Strangely Fine' didn't stay connected to the band. Thanks Dan for sharing your talents with everyone.

    This song was released when I was pregnant with my son. Even then, I more associated it with the closing of chapters. It's always been his song. Following all the chapters of his life. He managed a radio station for a while, DJ'd, etc. Frequently this was his sign off.
    He just got married.

      If you didn’t know about the origins of the song:
      Dan Wilson's girlfriend was pregnant at the time and although Wilson did not set out consciously to write a song about giving birth, he has stated that "Part way into the writing of the song, I realized it was also about being born."

    I can still remember 5 years ago when I was still in college. Before we go to class, we're always drunk. But before we leave the bar, we always play this beautiful song in the karaoke. Now we're professionals and some of us have a family, we still haven't change a bit in our taste of music. Getting old is inevitable, but because of this song, it brings us to those good old days. Thanks Dan!

And I will always play it loud on my cellphone w/ earphones. It brings back all the good memories during my time of off duty at work heading to our flat while riding in our company shuttle bus service .😹😹😹 while thinking my family back in the Philippines.😣😢

    I have to say, all the times I heard this song, it never occurred to me what it was about. Once it was pointed out, it is absolutely brilliant. Everything is there, it's just so subtly underplayed you don't even spot the actual context.
    Had this been the only song you'd ever written, you would have nothing to be ashamed of.
