Trying to upload this to Facebook but it uploads with one of the comments about one of the guys in the clip being a douche. Don’t like that.

Very cute

That’s so beautiful – nearly brought a tear to my eye.

Call me a cynic but… how long before it gets used to sell Ipads or phones?

Although if Im not completely wrong that guy towards the end in a fedora sitting in a rocking chair is the musician Loke from the band RÃ¤fven… hes a douche. (great musician but a complete bastard privately)

Not that that changes anything of how great the video is

By far the cutest song I’ve heard all month.
