"Obsession (I Love You)" is a song by American-Australian pop singer Amiel, released as the second single from her debut studio album, Audio Out (2003).
According to Amiel, the song went through many changes, eventually becoming a dark-sounding track that illustrates the narrator's obsessive tendencies.
In the end it [the song] took on a kind of Nine Inch Nails vibe.
He becomes obsessed and driven toward a particular thing and in this song that is what he wanted.
It totally works for this song to be dark and strange because it helps illustrate the obsessive, deluded character that I am playing.
