Under Your Spell
Cliff Martinez Lyrics
I don't eat, I don't sleep
I do nothing but think of you
I don't eat, I don't sleep
I do nothing but think of you
You keep me under your spell
You keep me under your spell
You keep me under your spell
I don't eat, I don't sleep
I don't eat, I don't sleep
I do nothing but think of you
You keep me under your spell
You keep me under your spell
You keep me under your spell
You keep me under your spell
You keep me under your spell
You keep me under your spell

Cliff Martinez (born February 5, 1954) is an American musician and composer. Early in his career, Martinez was known as a drummer notably with the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Captain Beefheart. Since the 1990s he has worked primarily as a film score composer, writing music for Sex, Lies, and Videotape, Drive, Only God Forgives, The Neon Demon, Spring Breakers, Contagion, Solaris, The Foreigner, and Traffic.
Martinez was born in the Bronx, New York. Read Full BioCliff Martinez (born February 5, 1954) is an American musician and composer. Early in his career, Martinez was known as a drummer notably with the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Captain Beefheart. Since the 1990s he has worked primarily as a film score composer, writing music for Sex, Lies, and Videotape, Drive, Only God Forgives, The Neon Demon, Spring Breakers, Contagion, Solaris, The Foreigner, and Traffic.
Martinez was born in the Bronx, New York. Raised in Columbus, Ohio, his first job composing was for the popular television show Pee Wee's Playhouse. At the time, however, he was more interested in rock bands, and played drums in a variety of them, mostly in a temporary capacity.
After several years drumming for such acts as Captain Beefheart, The Dickies, Lydia Lunch and The Weirdos, in late 1983, he and Jack Sherman were drafted in to join the Red Hot Chili Peppers for the recording of their eponymous first album after Jack Irons and Hillel Slovak left the band to concentrate on their other project at the time, What Is This? Martinez again played on the recording of the band's second album Freaky Styley and its subsequent tour.
Eventually, Martinez' interests shifted and he focused his attention toward film scoring. A tape Martinez had put together using new technologies made its rounds, leading him to score an episode of Pee-Wee's Playhouse. The same recording also ended up in Steven Soderbergh's hands and Martinez was hired to score the famed director's first theatrical release, 1989's sex, lies, and videotape.[citation needed] Martinez's longstanding relationship with Soderbergh has continued through the years and they have worked together on ten theatrical releases including Kafka, The Limey, Traffic, Solaris and 2011's Contagion, as well the Cinemax series The Knick.
Perhaps it is because of his time in the punk scene that Martinez's approach to scoring is nontraditional.[citation needed] His scores tend towards being stark and sparse, utilizing a modern tonal palette to paint the backdrop for films that are often dark, psychological stories like Pump Up the Volume (1990), The Limey (1999) Wonderland (2003), Wicker Park (2004) and Drive (2011). Martinez has been nominated for a Grammy Award (Steven Soderbergh's Traffic), a Cesar Award (Xavier Giannoli's À L'origine), and a Broadcast Film Critics Award (Drive). He earned a Robert Award (Danish Academy Award) for his work on Only God Forgives.
Martinez's use of audio manipulations, particularly for percussive sounds, has been evolving through the years and is evident[citation needed] by the hammered dulcimer of Kafka (1991), the gray-areas between sound design and score for Traffic (2000), the steel drums and textures of Solaris (2002), what Martinez called "rhythmi-tizing pitched, ambient textures" of Narc (2002), and "using percussion performances to trigger and shape the rhythmic and tonal characteristics of those ambient textures," as he described his score for 2011's The Lincoln Lawyer.
Martinez served as a juror for the 2012 Sundance Film Festival and served on the International Feature nominating committee for 2011 Film Independent Spirit Awards. Martinez's recent films include Robert Redford's The Company You Keep, Nicholas Jarecki's Arbitrage, Harmony Korine's Spring Breakers (co-composed with Skrillex), and Nicolas Winding Refn's Only God Forgives and The Neon Demon.
Martinez composed the main menu titled "Galaxy Theme" for Spore with Brian Eno in 2008. In 2014, Martinez also composed the title score for Far Cry 4.
In 2013, Martinez scored the "Fly Beyond" Grey Goose vodka commercial. Martinez also composed two songs, "Vibe" and "Kotopulse", for the 2014 Lincoln Motor Company advertising campaign featuring Matthew McConaughey.
On April 14, 2012, Martinez was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

- Hey!
- Yeah?
- I was wondering, do you know the difference between love and obsession?
- No.
- And what's the difference between obsession and desire?
- I don't know.
- Do you think this feeling could last forever?
- You mean like forever ever?
Forever ever?
Forever ever?
Forever ever?
Sure.
- God, I hope so!
- Me too.

Tis thy flame....fear and reign...
Saddest essence in thy end i tame...
Sacred cove thy heart refrain....
Thy battled few and fewer named...
Solemn oath I will maintain...
Wisdom is thy winners fame...
and fewer know that knowledge tames...
Into the flames few men will reign....
Tis thy day the battle drains...
Essence stays for men who acclaim...
Thy simple pleasure and hearts maintained.....to swallow pride and vanity.....to live each day as only good men see.....Rowl4nd99 poEm...

This song was playing in the background while I was falling head over heels with a girl who later became my girlfriend
We were crazy about each other and every time this song came on, we’d smile and remember the night we met.
We experienced a lot together
But the spell has been broken
And she’s gone now
I hear this song and I can’t help but smile and remember the night I met the girl that showed me the difference between
Love and obsession
Obsession and Desire
