I LOVE THIS SONG!  I was watching figure skating clips online before the Winter Olympics 
while I was listening to this.  Pity that no figure skaters will even consider trying 
skate with this song on the background because it is quite appropriate.

This is a more sophisticated version of 'Running Away'
And this can be a complimetary track to 'Veronica Mars'!
