Album Review
Love Hurts Review by Cher Fan Club
Love Hurts, Cher's 20th studio album, released on June 18, 1991, marks a continuation of her exploration into rock and pop sounds. This album, while not as commercially successful in North America as her previous work, stood out in European markets, particularly the UK, where it topped the charts. Notable for its mix of covers and original tracks, it includes the UK number one hit "The Shoop Shoop Song (It's in His Kiss)" and "Love and Understanding." The album's themes revolve around love, loss, and resilience, delivered through Cher's powerful vocal performances.
