“Killing Me” – Tyler Wilkinson and Alyssa Bonagura

I stumbled across this gem of a love song when I was on a hunt to find out what in the world happened to the Wilkinsons. If you’ve never heard of the Wilkinsons, you missed out on an amazing country group of the 90’s. Anyway, Tyler Wilkinson (brother of the former father-son-daughter trio) has been collaborating with folk-indie artist Alyssa Bonagura. They produced a beautiful tune entitled “Killing Me,” which speaks of the power love holds over the one in love, despite its ironic title. My favorite lyric is “If this is Heaven, lay me down to rest… and if it’s not it must be second best.” What a beautiful and powerful way to describe love…
