Art photos made using the tarot cards from the boxed set released with Cher's 1991 U.S. edition of her "Love Hurts" cd, with her song, "Love and Understanding," from the same cd. Love Hurts was released on June 11, 1991 and was the third and final album released by Cher for Geffen Records. The cd featured production by Bob Rock and saw her continue to collaborate with John Kalodner, Diane Warren and Desmond Child. The album was recorded in late 1990/early 1991, during the first year of Cher's relationship to Bon Jovi's guitarist Richie Sambora. She dedicated the album to him and "every man that ever made me shed a tear". The album contained three covers: the worldwide hit "The Shoop Shoop Song (It's in His Kiss)" originally recorded by Merry Clayton in 1963, Kiss song "A World Without Heroes" recorded in 1980 and "Love Hurts" a remake of the 1975 version which Cher had previously recorded for her album Stars. This time the song was more pop/rock rather than a ballad. The originally version was released by Everly Brothers in 1960. The European cover of the album was different from the American release, it featured Cher laying on a white background wearing a red wig. The European release also included the world wide hit, The Shoop Shoop Song (It's in His Kiss) which reached #1 in over 10 countries and has sold over six million copies. In the United States, The Shoop Shoop Song was available only through the original soundtrack, Mermaids original soundtrack for the film of the same name. Unlike Heart of Stone and Cher, Love Hurts received less attention in the North America, only achieving a gold certification in the U.S. while in European countries the album was certified multi-platinum. In the U.K, the album debuted at #1 and held this position for 6 consecutive weeks. The album became her second biggest selling album worldwide at the time (behind Heart of Stone) having sold over 10 million copies. In 2001 it was re-released in a special collector's version and featured tarot cards with the lyrics of every song on the album. Here are the lyrics .... Here, here in this world Where do we go Where do we turn When we need some love It seems that love Just cant be found Where, where do we stand When loves supply Dont meet loves demand We got enough stars To light the sky at night Enough sun to make The whole world bright We got more than enough But theres one thing Theres just not enough of... Chorus: Not enough love and understanding We could use some love To ease these troubled times Not enough love and understanding Why, oh why Spend all of our time Building buildings up to the sky Reaching everywhere but where We need to reach the most Hearts never can win Oh, in this race This race that were in Weve got enough cars To drive around the world Enough planes to take us anywhere We got more than enough But theres one thing Theres just not enough of... Chorus x 2 We need some understandin We need a little more love Some love and understandin Enough stars to light the sky at night Enough sun to make the whole world bright Enough hearts to find some love inside We got more than enough But theres one thing Theres just not enough of... Chorus
