The funny thing is that the music to “Obsession” was actually not written for Slowmatch initially. I was writing tunes with a female lyrics writer at the time, and she wrote a pretty gut-wrenching poem that we were going to put into music. She eventually became too busy with a relationship, and I was left with some arrangements I actually felt were more than okay for Slowmatch! I had the lyrics for “Obsession“. They fit in. End of story.
