Generally we don’t like putting the words ‘love’ and ‘viral’ in the same sentence, because they’re usually followed with ‘should clear up after a round of penicillin.’ Thankfully, this online love-letter-video-thing isn’t the kind you need protection for; it’s a guy’s attempt at reaching his long-distance girlfriend organically, virally, over the internet.

The guy in question, Walter C. May, happens to be in a band called The Daylights – he and the rest of the band put this synthroid little video together with the hopes that it’d get reblogged, retweeted and otherwise linked to through the internet, so that it would eventually reach his girlfriend. She’s somewhere in America, so obviously this post isn’t exactly helping out, but it’s a nice thought.

Also, if they end up breaking up, this video will be on the internet forever, a constant reminder to Walter C. May of his pain. Which is an even nicer thought.
