Eminem deals with relationship problems again on the confrontational new song 'Space Bound,' the fourth and final single planned from the rapper's multi-platinum release 'Recovery.'
Marshall Mathers pours his heart out, declaring his undying affection for a girl who "must be a sorceress, did the impossible, gained my trust." But after more than a year together, she wants to break it off, causing Eminem to feel violent urges:
"Drop to my knees and I'm pleading / I'm trying to stop you from leaving / You won't even listen so f*** it / I'm trying to stop you from breathing / I put both hands on your throat / I sit on top of you squeezing / 'Til I snap your neck like a Popsicle stick."
Eminem's fast-paced delivery stands in contrast to the slow tempo of the song, which features little more than an acoustic guitar and a few spacey synth bloops. The song's vocal hook is provided by co-writer Steve McEwan, who normally writes country songs for artists like Carrie Underwood and Faith Hill.
'Space Bound' is the only track on 'Recovery' produced by Jim Jonsin, whose recent work includes Nelly's 'Just a Dream' and Usher's 'There Goes My Baby.'
'Recovery' was just named Rap Album of the Year at the 53rd Annual Grammys, one of two awards Eminem took home, along with Best Rap Solo Performance for 'Not Afraid.'
