Croatian singer Lidija Bačić, known by her stage name Lille, recently opened up about her experiences with love and relationships, revealing a passionate but potentially volatile approach to romance.
When I fall in love, I fall in love, you know, then I only see him. I think I'm great in a relationship when I'm in love, but when I stop being in love, then I become completely cold and uninterested.
When asked about her behavior in love, Bačić explained her all-consuming focus on her partner. "When I fall in love, I fall in love, you know, then I only see him," she stated. While she believes this makes her a "super" partner during the relationship, she admits to a stark contrast when the feelings subside. "But when I stop being in love, then I become completely cold and uninterested," she confessed.
Bačić also touched upon past heartbreaks, admitting that while she hasn't suffered much from love in recent years, she used to. She described a ritual of listening to the saddest songs before sleep to process her emotions. "I used to know, like every woman. And then I would turn on, of course, some of the saddest songs, lull myself to sleep with the saddest songs, you know, in tears, and fall asleep," she recalled.

She specifically mentioned two songs by Sting and some by Croatian singer Oliver Dragojević as her go-to tracks for "suffering before sleep." The singer, who often shares photos with her fans on social media, has previously garnered attention for her bold fashion choices, including a revealing bikini that sparked numerous compliments.
These are my songs for suffering before sleep.
