I would like to know the artist and name of a song in Season 5 Episode 7. It is at minute 32 and the the young man is playing guitar and singing in Sam’s living room. It starts out “You took me by surprise, I could see the whole world smiling in your eyes”. It is very short, but beautiful.
Unfortunately, it is unavailable at the moment
I, too, want to know that. It was really beautiful, would love to have its chords as well.
