    My wife of 16 years has been recently diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer. This song hits different these days. Love lost isn't always consensual. Blessed to have found and cherished that kind of love ❤️. Treat everyday like it's your last friends and thank god for providing the opportunity!
    Live/Love

    This song perfectly captures the phrase, "Love knows no logic." When you connect with that one soul your mind tries to warn you about, but your heart doesn't listen. Your heart is so captivated that it has to risk it, despite the inevitable conclusion your mind saw a mile away. Your mind finally acquiesces, because it knows that the regret of never trying can become it's own torture. So you go all in. Your souls entwine and you feel whole again where you never knew you felt empty. And you ignore the signs that this bond is not reciprocal. Eventually this person you gave your soul to begins to pull & push away and your mind remembers the red flags it saw all along, but she takes her time parting ways, unsure if you're worth keeping or not. You know it's coming, but she gives just enough hope to keep you close while searching for someone or something else that's not you. Your mind tells you it's time to go, but your heart clings to hope. That's when you learn a terrible truth..... Leaving is painful.....Waiting is painful..... But not knowing which to do is the worst kind of suffering. Eventually you part ways as your mind tries, for 14 years, to suppress the memories and convince your heart that it was never real. Sometimes your heart even seems to accept this..... until you dream of her in your sleep, and you wake up only to start over, try again, to convince your heart to do something it knows it can never do..... let go..... not entirely..... because there's a hole in your chest that you never knew existed, until she put her finger into it instead of her heart.

      @@blondelebanese9922 I wouldn't dare give such advice even to someone I know personally. Only you can decide. I'll say this though..... They say that happiness and/or strength lies just on the other side of fear, and fear thrives within the padded walls of safety & security. Failure and hardship are always possibilities in relationships, though hardship begets wisdom. I've learned to live with my scars, and though the breakup instigated a dark night of the soul that lasted several years, I've grown to be glad for the experience. But that's just me; we're all wired differently. Best wishes.

Im 16 yrs younger than him so I always knew this day would come but just not so soon. Our love story was a lot like this song. Neither of us were looking for someone and didnt want to fall in love but the world has a crazy way of making things happen differently than you would expect. Rest in peace my love, I will love you for the entirety of eternity ❤️

    Wicked Game is often interpreted as a ballad about unrequited love, Isaak said that the song was inspired by a telephone call from a woman seeking to arrange a casual sexual liaison and The song is about "what happens when you have a strong attraction to people that aren't necessarily good for you" He said "It was written shortly after that call. But This Song Now Belongs To All Of Us, Who Have A Lost Love.

      It is even worse when you are in your 40s and never had any feelings for anyone until that certain person comes into your life and you fall in love with them only to find out they don't feel the same way. Even worst they can't tell you to your face. No, you only really find out when you catch that person with another person and then you realise you been had. It hurts.
      Stay away from sexual relationships. Nothing but trouble in my experience. Don't be just friends with someone of the opposite sex. It doesn't work that way. You are only setting yourself up for heartbreak. Trust me, I know what I speak of.

    Few songs or voices in musical history can be labeled as truly timeless, but Chris Isaac has it in spades. Every single time I listen to Wicked Game it sets me into a place where there's no time or space... just musical euphoria. Even after all these years, it's simply inexplicable...

    This song reminds me of what happened. I was so young and my world was on fire, I was vulnerable and in a lot of pain. Then I met the narcissist who came to save me. Nobody had ever taken an interest in me like he did. It was intoxicating and I entered his world, a place I never belonged in and in the end that world broke my heart. I never thought I'd ever meet somebody like him. I left when I finally woke up.

    I've heard this beautiful and tranquil song a few times on the radio and never knew the artist or the name of the song. Now I know both of them and play it frequently while I do things at my computer. As one commenter says below, if you've never been deeply in love with someone, you might have a hard time relating. Chris has that smooth falsetto voice like Roy Orbison had in his career. Simply fantastic is all I can say.

It perfectly captures those desperate moments when all hope seems lost save for one distant light glimmering through the darkness... but is it glimmering for _you?_ Or are you merely another foolish amorous moth to a flame?

    James Calvin Wilsey (July 12, 1957 - December 24, 2018) was an American musician. He played bass with San Francisco punk band the Avengers, but became better known as the lead guitarist for Stockton crooner Chris Isaak's band Silvertone. His playing was featured on Isaak's albums Silvertone, Chris Isaak, Heart Shaped World, and San Francisco Days, and is widely remembered for his distinctive lead guitar on Isaak's top 10 hit "Wicked Game". He died from multiple organ failure related to hepatitis and drug use.[2] ------ Wikipedia

    I fell in love with a young girl with short black hair that was a little longer on one side of her face just enough where you could just barely see both of her beautiful light blue eyes. This song was on in my buddies car the night we were introduced and I will never forget it.I was 16 and my Kelly was 15 and we lived along ways away from one another. It was just 45 minutes down the road but, to us it was an eternity. We spent every single chance we could get with one another together for two hot summers back in 1986-87. I loved Kelly so much I just knew I would die without seeing her and holding her hand and kissing her lips for too long, but those summers came and they went just as fast as a shooting star crossing the midnight sky, like a blink of an eye... Kelly was my baby for a time just not long enough.
    I don't know what happened to Kelly after those two summers when I was a hopeless romantic young man coming into his own I guess and just brushed it off for several years to just puppy love between me and Kelly.. I hear this song yet still to this day and remember how much I loved Kelly Levy and couldn't live without her. I know all these years later I will never forget you Kelly..
    I love you my baby.
