Sep 14, 2014
"Only Love Can Hurt Like This" is the latest single out now by the English recording artist Paloma Faith. It was written by Diane Warren and it was released as the second single to promote her third studio album, A Perfect Contradiction, earlier this summer. The song peaked at number 6 in the United Kingdom, making it Faith's highest charting single to date, surpassing her 2012 single "Picking Up the Pieces".
Known for her unique, retro and eccentric style, Faith released her debut album Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful? in 2009, featuring the top twenty singles "Stone Cold Sober" and "New York". The album reached number nine in the United Kingdom, and was later certified double-platinum in the country. In 2012, Faith released her second studio album, Fall to Grace, which reached number two in the UK and has since been certified double-platinum. The album produced her first top ten single, "Picking Up the Pieces", and the top twenty cover version of INXS' "Never Tear Us Apart". She has received three BRIT Award nominations, including British Female Solo Artist and Best British Album.
