Title of Song: Love is Blind by Eve
Art piece:Your love is my pain by Natalie's Media art portfolio

The song love is blind talks about Eve high school friend that went through a abusive relationship with her kids father. Eve's friend (Andrea) inspired her to create a song about what she was going through. Eve also expresses how angry it made her watching her friend go through a domestic relationship.
The lyrics throughout the song talks about domestic violence actions and angry words. Eve uses lyrics such as "how could you beat the mother of your kids" and "love is blind and it will take over your mind". In the video every action displayed is domestic violence by hitting one spouse also using harsh words.
Eve discussed domestic violence relationships because she had a friend who was getting abused by her spouse. Eve wrote the song on her own expressing how her friend was going through a domestic violence relationship and how it made her felt being on the outside.
People should listen to "Love is Blind" because it talks a about domestic violence relationship and how it makes a close friend feel being on the outside looking in. The song has powerful lyrics and uses phrases that connects with life situations.
Eve wrote the song however her high school friend inspired her to write it. the music video and the song connects with one another and the video also add more meaning. the song is well known striking at the #1 song off her album "Let there be Eve"
