“And then all of a sudden, the fans just loved it the most.
So I did this orchestral version of it and then a duet at the time with my boyfriend.
And it was like this new version, and I thought maybe that was it.”
When fellow Twihards began to get married, they all chose the track as their wedding song.
“All of a sudden this song is not so much aboutTwilightanymore,” marveled Perri.
So this song just keeps living its own life and evolving.
For the next 10 years, everybody gets married to it and everybody starts having babies.”
