This song makes me cry. I've never lost (or had) a sister, but I lost my first real friend when I was 6. She had a heart attack even though she had no diagnosed heart problems and now my best friend has some sort of heart problem that no one can diagnose, which brings it all back and makes me really relate to the song.
Like a lot of people have said, when she says "sis" it's just so... real. I cried then. And when she says "I know you remember me" that for me just paints the picture of two little girls lying in a coffin together. I know it's morbid, but that one line really puts the whole song into a child's perspective.
The one thing I really hate is how the song runs into Lose Control. The two songs just DO NOT go at all. The emotional jump is so big, and if you're not still crying from Like You, you almost feel guilty about wanting to get into a song like Lose Control after such a sad song. And they share an end and a beginning like Tourniquet and Imaginary (but that transition never bothered me) so they don't sound right separated either. Grr... that really bothers me. I think it would be better if Your Star was there because that song could kind of bridge the gap... it's just my opinion though.
