If you’re the typical fairy tale lover that has seen Disney’s Enchanted then you’re surely one for the love struck listeners of Jon Mclaughlin’s So Close. It was the song sung during the ball where Giselle danced with Robert (who happens to be Dr. McDreamy of Grey’s Anatomy). Since the song was first heard in the said movie, plus the dance and all, the impact of the song remains supremely romantic—not a care in the world whether it’s been two years since it was first heard.

It was nominated at the 80th Academy Awards for Best Original Song. It was also nominated with two more songs from the film namely Happy Working Song and That’s How You Know. Unfortunately the song lost to Falling Slowly (from the OST of the indie film Once). However the magical effect it has, that can search for people whom they've love.

I’ve done records search through Imeem.com, a social network which focuses on friends sharing songs and playlists. There were thirty-second listening pleasures with Jon McLaughlin himself singing the it—the complete tracks available there were not the original singer’s voice, as it seems users of the network prefers to sing it themselves and have it posted in Imeem (I was lucky enough to get one with a great voice).

The song was composed by one of Disney’s favorite award winning composer Alan Menken; lyrics written by Stephen Schwartz. According to public records search this song it was first released on November 20, 2007 as part of the Enchanted soundtrack. It’s a contemporary ballad which stands in contrast to the rest of the songs in the film, however it is a total genuine in tone as it surely describes the feelings of the main characters, while realizing that they are in love.

I have seen comments on imeem.com who continues to praise the song until now. Background check on this song will definitely show how persons are given that magical feel like you’re living in a fairy tale. And I have to agree with one of the comments: It’s a good wedding song….
