* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: The protagonist in "A Thousand Years" lived for [[TimeAbyss a thousand years and can apparently live for one thousand more]], has loved and waited for a man for that long, and tells him upon meeting him to "don't be afraid". There are several possible interpretations of what she is.
** She's an EldritchAbomination. Or perhaps, a HumanoidAbomination. The fact it was used on the soundtrack to ''Literature/BreakingDawn'' suggests she may be a vampire.
** Another common interpretation is that she's just [[{{Immortality}} immortal]]. The good news? It's implied that her lover [[EternalLove is immortal too]].
** Yet another is that she's one half of a ReincarnationRomance.
** She could also be an angel, as they are immortal, and biblical angels have the catchphrase, "Fear not."
* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: She is extremely successful in Australia, with ''lovestrong.'' selling gold and charting for just over a year.
%%* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: "Arms", "Distance", "Penguin" and "A Thousand Years".
* MemeticMutation:
** "Jar Of Hearts" has been the subject of memes within the ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' fandom: The Gentlemen from the episode "Hush" are [[MonsterOfTheWeek monsters of the week]] who ''literally'' remove human hearts and collect them in jars, and while they're considered to be among the show's scarier villains, juxtaposing them with a breakup ballad makes both the characters and the song seem a bit sillier.
** Her rendition of "You Are My Sunshine" has caught notoriety among other things, UsefulNotes/LeBronJames fandom (specifically the ironic side of the fandom), of all people. The song was associated with good and evil version of [=LeBron=], with the evil [=LeBron=] using the very down-pitched version of her song.
%%* {{Narm}}: "Sad Song".
%%** "Jar of Hearts". The [[PurpleProse prose are just a little bit too purple]].
%%--> "You're gonna catch a cold from the ice inside your soul."
* SignatureSong: "A Thousand Years", with "Jar of Hearts" being a close-second.
%%* TearJerker: All of her songs. "Human" in particular.
%%* {{Wangst}}: "Jar of Hearts" is often accused of this. The narrator makes their ex lover sound more like a cartoon supervillain than a partner who was unfaithful.
