Soundtrack of Your Life Entry #21 Love The Way You Lie
Day 21 of "The Soundtrack of Your LifeOpen in new Window. challenge. *Smile*

Today song is...
Love The Way You Lie by Skylar Grey




This song tilts more towards the emotional side. It's a very powerful piece of music. The singer analyzes her past and there a little bit of sadness as what starts as a bright like a bright future seems to turn into an abusive relationship. The serious themes aside the song has some really beautiful imagery such as angels and fire. It also has a very sweet haunting melody.

I first heard this song performed at a 5k I attended where my brother who was one of the runners. It was a charity event where runners completed the path Fire Fighters took when the World Trade Center Towers were destroyed on 9/11. It involved a grueling run through the Lincoln tunnel. This song was performed live at the event though I was not able to see the singer performing it. It made enough of an impression on me that I added it to my play list.

Sidenote: When I was relistening to this song preparing this entry. My mother heard me playing it and asked me ..."Are you listening to a Rihanna song?

My reaction: "That's a Rihanna song?"

A brief bit of googling later... Yes as it turns out... it is a Rihanna song and an Eminem song as well. The Singer performing it in the video (Skyler Grey) is the song writer.
