Tell Me Where It Hurts (The Real Milli Vanilli song)

"Tell Me Where It Hurts" is a song written by Diane Warren originally recorded by Milli Vanilli for their upcoming album "Keep On Running" but due to the lip-synching scandal the group The Real Milli Vanilli was formed and the song was included in their 1991 album The Moment of Truth. The song has been covered by many artists in the subsequent years.
