Ms. Joni Mitchell would say, "Don't Know What You Got Til It's Gone."
Like most love stories go: boy and girl fall in love. Boy won't commit. Girl decides to leave boy, move across country to study at an MBA program at Duke. Finally, guy has epiphany! Writes a song with his band, The Daylights, to win her back. Ah, there's a twist! He doesn't send it to her. Instead, he posts it on YouTube and hopes it will find it's way to her through word of mouth.
A manipulative way to sell a song? A modern take on love?

All I know, I only hope that one day I'm looking down the barrel of this gun :)
