Great job by Justin, he made a whole new song from the original lyrics.
It's interesting to me how So far away is in esence a sad song but the feeling I get when I listen to it it's not sad because it's played in a major key. MK knew how to take shitty situations and get the best out of them

I think that is one of the strengths in his songwriting, creating contrasts.

Exactly! There are funeral songs, and yet they don't make you sad.
I know the way I can see by the moonlight
Clear as the day
Now come on woman, come follow me home
