Love the Way You Lie

Portion used

26-second sound sample with end of chorus and beginning of second verse.

Low resolution?

The sample's quality is reduced to roughly 64 Kbps, sufficient resolution for commentary and identification. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable for 'unauthorised distribution' or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original recording. The length has been reduced to 10% of that of the original song.

Purpose of use
  • It illustrates an educational article that specifically discusses the song from which this sample was taken.
  • Rihanna sings the second half of the chorus over an electric guitar and a piano. A reporter noted that her voice is regretful and sad despite there being no vibrato, a musical effect used for expression. The song follows the Gm–E♭(add2)–B♭–F/A chord progression in the chorus.
  • The chorus is pop.
  • Eminem begins the second verse, rapping over an acoustic guitar recorded by Alex da Kid and a piano. Other instrumentation is provided by pounding drums and violin. His voice is angry and frustrated. He follows the Gm–E♭(add2)B♭–Fsus/A chord progression on the verses. Eminem's rapping was called dark.
  • The "slow burning" composition of the song was compared to that of British singer Adele's song "Someone Like You".[1] Both were considered ballads.
Replaceable?
  • It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
