The Only Exception

The first time I heard this song, it struck a chord within me. And the next day, and the day after, I kept rewinding and listening to it again in my head. I don't think I've known many songs about growing up in a broken/dysfunctional family, and how it can affect one's future relationships. For those of us who have been through that, this song can be quite an inspiration.

Somehow it reminds me of Coldplay, maybe "Yellow", in how it is both uplifting and sad at the same time.
