"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. Released as a single on 30 June 2003, "Obsession" peaked at number 15 on the Australian Singles Chart.

Background

Amiel said of "Obsession": "The song went through many changes and has had many lives. In the end it took on a kind of Nine Inch Nails vibe. That's what Josh is like. 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."
