- 0:00Speaker 1: Welcome.

- 0:04Speaker 3: The music vault music lost history.
- 0:12Speaker 1: You know the.
- 0:13Speaker 3: Story musics lost history.
- 0:23Speaker 2: You know, we're that generation that has so much music available,
- 0:27Speaker 2: but there's no true connection to its history. I mean,
- 0:30Speaker 2: every song has a story, and every story somehow links
- 0:35Speaker 2: every generation. Welcome to the music Vaults. Hey, thanks for
- 0:46Speaker 2: being here on Music's Lost History. Music has a way
- 0:50Speaker 2: of sharing sounds associated with confessions of betrayal. But this
- 0:54Speaker 2: particular song is one percent the exact opposite. The song
- 0:59Speaker 2: central idea. I wasn't lying. I just didn't have a
- 1:02Speaker 2: strong enough word for what I was feeling in my
- 1:05Speaker 2: moment of now, it said the songwriter felt more than
- 1:09Speaker 2: just love. It's a word that seems so small when
- 1:12Speaker 2: describing the depth of collected emotions. It was growing beyond
- 1:17Speaker 2: the definition of what love really is, something deeper. It
- 1:21Speaker 2: became one of this artist's biggest selling singles, earning him
- 1:25Speaker 2: a Grammy nomination. Now, the song itself is not about deception.
- 1:30Speaker 2: The true calling and purpose is and was, to stop
- 1:34Speaker 2: repeating what's been described as romantic cliches. Sometimes even the
- 1:39Speaker 2: strongest words still don't carry the powerful punch which is
- 1:43Speaker 2: described in a person's feelings coming up next. With a
- 1:48Speaker 2: song title like this, why wouldn't radio listeners and disc
- 1:52Speaker 2: jockeys think this is a much different story?
- 1:55Speaker 1: Do you know the song no song Lost History is
- 2:02Speaker 1: coming back back back with Arrow Collins Julius No, No,
- 2:12Speaker 1: the song no.
- 2:13Speaker 2: Song Music's Lost History.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Is coming back back back with Arrow Collins.
- 2:27Speaker 3: Music's Lost is salary.
- 2:30Speaker 2: Hey, thanks for coming back to Music's Lost history. With
- 2:34Speaker 2: a song title like this, why wouldn't it be so
- 2:37Speaker 2: easy for radio disc jockeys and their listeners to get
- 2:40Speaker 2: the story completely wrong? This song first appeared on the
- 2:44Speaker 2: radio scene in nineteen ninety three. It received overwhelmingly positive
- 2:48Speaker 2: vibrations from Michael Bolton fans and those who would soon
- 2:52Speaker 2: become his followers. Adult contemporary radio was extremely hot in
- 2:57Speaker 2: nineteen ninety three, and at that time, Michael Bolton couldn't
- 3:01Speaker 2: do anything wrong. The title suggests something very negative, yet
- 3:06Speaker 2: it became one of radio's most requested songs, mainly because
- 3:10Speaker 2: said I loved you but I lied is intriguing. Listeners
- 3:15Speaker 2: quickly associated the word lie to love. Critics were very skeptical,
- 3:21Speaker 2: calling said I Loved You overly sentimental and formulaic. It
- 3:26Speaker 2: has since gone on to be a signature piece from
- 3:29Speaker 2: mister Michael Bolton said I loved you, but I lie music.
- 3:33Speaker 2: Love this sor that's music's lost history. I'm harrow.
