Whether you like country-pop, rap, indie rock, and whether you prefer festivals, concert...
Odds are, you've heard Eminem's hit song "Love the Way You Lie" featuring guest vocals by Rihanna. Released as single from the album Recovery, the tune landed on the top spot of 23 different charts and managed to hold that position for weeks in most cases.
