This was one of those songs that the first time I heard it, it kind of threw me off. Not because it doesn't sound like most of Hanson's music or because it's bad, just because it wasn't really what I was expecting.
With that said, it's not bad. I love Ike's voice in it. He sings with such depth, it's hard not to like it. The lyrics are a bit week at some points, in particular, the chorus. It sounds good, but I think that with all their talent, they could have done a bit better.
The message behind the song is pretty clear, though. Basically, in the words of someone (I forget who and can't be bothered to look it up): 'It is better to have loved and lost, than to never have loved at all.'
