Description

Hazard
Artist: Richard Marx

Release: 1991

“Hazard” is a pop song written about the fictional story of a man who is being accused of murdering his girlfriend without substantial evidence. It all started when he moved to a small historic town called, Hazard, Nebraska, alongside his mother. As they arrived, the residents of the village began to prospect that he would be trouble in the future. After a few years in Hazard, Richard runs into a woman named Mary who he adores as she can see who he indeed is, she doesn’t look at him the way the others do. As a pair, they spend time together often. Village police officers would spy on them as they accompanied each other. One night she went out alone and never returned. The police department was sure Richard was the one to blame, so they went to his trailer to place him under arrest. They further investigated the allegation unable to justify it. As the investigation was ongoing, residents vandalized his home. He contemplated suicide as his life was falling apart but instead decided to leave this old village on foot.

In 2011, “Hazard” hit number one in thirteen countries !!

What have the artists said about the song?

Back when he performed the song live in 2011, he admitted that a “fictional murder suspect” was the dumbest story to write about. He only followed through with the idea as it was very different from what he usually writes about.
