"I Love You, I'll Kill You" - Enigma
This came to mind as I was washing dishes. I think it's from all the late night snacking. It made my tummy hurt so much that I had to take a minute to distract myself from the pain. The cramps almost became too unbearable for me to stand over the kitchen sink. Leave it to indigestion to blast me back to a mixed tape a special someone made for me in the mid-90's.
I finished rinsing out the last empty glass and made my way to the computer before this memory slipped away from me. It's hard to remember the title to the one I originally hummed because all I had to go by was a snippet of a melody! I wish there was a way to find a song just by humming it to Google.
I search for something I want and end up finding what I never thought I wanted until I got it.
Both of these tracks were recorded on a XL II 90-minute, high-quality Maxell cassette tape (this was the expensive kind). Ah, the good ol' days when putting a compilation together meant devoting a good chunk of time into creating something so easy-to-do nowadays. I truly believe that it takes a greater amount of skill to make a tape than it does to burn a CD. So much more heart and energy is put into capturing things perfectly onto a thin, brown strip vs. a silver disk. It's not like dragging songs onto a playlist and clicking "burn" was even an option. Messing up on a tape meant starting all over again and taking up to a week to complete 90-minutes worth of music. It took extreme patience and only someone well worth it ever got one. Luckily, I got plenty.
Lyrics:
I see love, I can see passion
I feel danger, I feel obsession
Don't play games with the ones who love you
Cause I hear a voice who says:
I love you... I'll kill you...
Loneliness, I feel loneliness in my room...
Look into the mirror of your soul
Love and hate are one in all
Sacrifice turns to revenge and believe me
You'll see the face who'll say:
I love you... I'll kill you...
But I'll love you forever
Loneliness, I feel loneliness in my room...
