After listening to this song and enjoying it a lot, I thought right off how much his sound and style resembled Colbie Caillats songs,and then sure enough after checking it out found he had done a duet with her, im living and learning .
I'd never heard of him until I saw a recent "viral" vid of a little kid playing this song on the ukelele.
Never heard of her, either, but I don't listen to much "new" * music.
