美國創作才子［理察．瑪爾克斯］＆黑人靈魂巨星［路瑟范德羅斯］的合作──復古R&B佳作──成人抒情榜冠軍──［Keep Coming Back／繼續回來］

You know just how to hurt me
There were times, I think you knew
And how to take all the pain away
Girl, you must be the devil in disguise
There's some kind of madness in your eyes
When I was so afraid of you
Nobody else can see
You know a place buried deep in my heart


Something in you has taken some kind of hold on me
Chorus
I don't know why I keep coming back to you
I don't know why I keep coming back to you, baby
To you baby

And I say we can't just be friends
You say we shouldn't be lovers
And all this talking just makes me want you more
You've got a way of confusing a heart
That nobody else could do
Why should I try, I don't want to get over you


You've got a way of confusing a heart
Repeat Chorus
I'm so in love, so in love with the games that you play

So in love, and nothing can keep me away
Just tell me why I keep coming back to you Why should I try, I don't want to get over you
That nobody else could do

I don't know why I keep coming back to you

Songwriters: MARX, RICHARD

在發行兩張暢銷專輯與七首Top１０（外加兩首Top１５）暢銷曲後

１９９１年秋天　２８歲的美國創作才子紅星理察．瑪爾克斯（Richard Marx）發行第三張大碟［Rush Street／忙碌大街］

專輯風格比前兩張更多元　內容被宣傳成展露‘理察．瑪爾克斯的黑暗面’

首支主打是瑪爾克斯獨力譜寫製作的［Keep Coming Back／繼續回來］

理察提到他一直想作一首老式的R&B歌曲

［Keep Coming Back］便是這樣一首柔緩　成人抒情風格的節奏藍調曲

出道前理察曾為黑人靈魂巨星路瑟范德羅斯（Luther Vandross）合音

這回後者則受邀擔任此曲的幕後合音　聲音還蠻鮮明的

［Keep Coming Back］登上美國單曲榜＃１２　

（當時告示榜剛好改制　阻擋此曲進入Top１０的機會）

並沒有理察前兩張專輯首波主打強（#3, #1）

一般認為這是瑪爾克斯的風格迥改變過大　導致歌迷一時難已接受

不過在成人抒情榜倒是拿下四週王座　成為他在此榜第二首冠軍

國際市場方面：英國＃５５　德國＃５２　日本國際榜＃５　瑞士＃２２　紐西蘭＃３２　澳洲＃３４　瑞典３７　荷蘭＃４０　＃

由於［Keep Coming Back］表現差強人意　導致專輯只升到美國榜＃３５（上張是冠軍）

還好接下來的［Hazard］反應不錯　讓大碟在美國銷售突破白金　英國也擠入前十名

以前剛接觸［Keep Coming Back］並沒特別感覺

不過時間久了　其實覺得還蠻耐聽的

雖說這張專輯是瑪爾克斯聲勢緩慢走下坡的開始

但［Keep Coming Back］仍是他事業一首轉變風格的代表作品
