@NOROL115

and @2:28 so ethereal and then Taeyeon. OMG.

@lalalili7555

I love how Jessica’s voice back up soo and hyo <3

@renger0806

kind of ironic that jessica sings the last “alone” cause....

@jzl682

This song was just so perfect with Jessica's voice in it, it fits her voice so well. That's why for me it sounds incomplete when SNSD sang it without her at Tokyo Dome years ago. 💔

@Faz2108

true...the iconic line"alone"

@bysh9077

This is the best ballad by a Kpop girl group, it is unbeatable. PERIOD

@Samuel-th6fw

Only some other SNSD ballads come close for me.
