    A song about finding love for your enemy. A good challenge can be quite attractive, no? I like the chord progression a good bit, and the chorus is a bit catchy. People reacted quite well to this one.


Lyrics

"Good afternoon" she said Oh so slowly
It gave away the way you play this game
It came in stages traded gazes playing 
Lazily Oh no...

Sweet enemy
She's into me
She came to be
My everything
She'll have to lead me down
Lean into me
Sweet enemy
Lean into me
Sweet enemy
You'll have to lead me down

She came away from me oh so slowly
Betrayed the way she hated me
She laid the blade in her gaze as she slayed me
Lazily Oh no...

Sweet enemy
She's into me
She came to be
My everything
She'll have to lead me down
Lean into me
Sweet enemy
Lean into me
Sweet enemy
You'll have to lead me down

Recording Notes

Fairly simple mix on this one. No drums or bass.

The most interesting part of the recording was probably the treatment of the harmonies. I was starting to catch on to how to use delay for adding subtle interest.
