It is unique in that it is only a verse/chorus form and has no bridge. The song is kept interesting and dynamic using the entrance and exit of various instruments. Another non-traditional aspect is that instead of playing the same sound in stereo, each part is slightly different, which creates an interesting sound. Overall, the mix of instruments in the song makes you feel emotion inside which is why the song is popular.
