Bad Love is the tenth studio album by American singer-songwriter Randy Newman, released in 1999. It was Newman's first solo album since 1988's ''Land of Dreams'' and followed an 11-year hiatus during which Newman had focused on film soundtracks, receiving several Academy Award nominations. == Background == The album finds Newman bitter and satirical - as "biting as ever, yet unafraid to tackle personal and heartfelt concerns".〔 Newman tackles issues such as the state of American culture in "My Country", which chronicles suburbia's growing dependence on television, and "The World Isn’t Fair", which takes a look at the world through the eyes of Karl Marx. Another subject is aging - "Shame" takes a negative look at an "older man courting a younger woman" via the barbed lyrics and an exchange between the lead vocalist and the backing singer. "I’m Dead (But I Don't Know It)" is more self-referential in dealing with aging rock stars and commenting: "Everything I write sounds the same / Each record that I’m making / Is like a record that I’ve made / Just not as good". "Every Time It Rains" was composed for Michael Jackson but he declined to record it,〔(Randy Newman Home Page )〕 while "I Miss You" was composed for his ex-wife. This album was Newman's only release for DreamWorks.
