I know it's from a video game but I absolutely love this version of the song.

I mean, the explanation at the beginning isn't necessary. Lots of games have amazing music.

@Aresdotexe This version was made specifically for the game using the character voice actor. The original version by Shawn James is really good too, but this version is stripped down to just acoustic and vocals which I think makes it slightly more soulful and intimate. One of the few songs out there that will actually make me emotional. It reminds me of my good friend who died in Afghanistan, and my other friends/family in the military.

@TheSeptikSkeptik It's a cool detail for the game, too. Ellie couldn't play guitar in the first game. Joel (her father figure, if you're unfamiliar with the story) mentioned intending to teach her sometime. This was a cool way to show how their lives have gone on between the games.

@Aresdotexe They really couldn't have picked a better song for Ellie in my opinion.
