Rihanna loves the way Eminem lies

When Eminem wanted someone to sing about a guy hitting a girl, he called singer Rihanna. Last year Rihanna’s ex-boyfriend Chris Brown got in big trouble for hitting her.  And the media published shocking photos of Rihanna with bruises on her face.

Rihanna agreed to sing on the song, which is called “Love the Way You Lie” and is the second single from Eminem’s seventh album, Recovery, released in June. She says, “I love the song. It's really beautiful and it really stands out.”

“Love the Way You Lie” from Recovery

High off of love, drunk from my hate…
Sound like broken records playing over…
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
Well that’s all right because I love the way you lie

If someone sounds like a broken record, it means they’re saying the same thing again and again. The couple in this song  say they love each other. But then they fight. He hits her. They break up. They get back together. They love each other again. It’s a really bad relationship. Will it ever end?
