That is indeed a great song for the fandom, and I'm greatly amused by the way the Sherlockians have taken over the comments section. (Much better than the typical depressing level of discourse in youtube comments.)

It is a little peppier than I tend to look for in a post-Reichenbach song, at least at this stage. I see a post-Reichbach song as something rawer, like Josh Ritter's See How Man Was Made.
