Shakira
In Shakira's song "Addicted to You", she expresses her deep infatuation with a person, describing the physical and emotional effects of her love. She is captivated by the person's perfume, the way they bathe, their eyes, their laugh, their hands, and their scent. She is so in love that she can't sleep or eat, and she is desperate for the person to let her love them.
