SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 4:03 Min.
Making a pop crossover with her 1994 self-titled album, Christian singer Kathy Troccoli released this Diane Warren-composed track first for radio play.
REVIEW:
Much like how Amy Grant experimented with mainstream pop in the Early ‘90s, Kathy Troccoli followed suit a few years later. Gifted with an exuberant melody and Diane Warren’s poignant lyrics, “Tell Me Where It Hurts” is an ideal showcase for Troccoli. Her appealing vocal performance is well-suited for this type of uplifting tune that doesn’t come off as total schmaltz.
Reminiscent of contemporary gospel (though the song omits obvious religious overtones), the song’s lyrics is about poignantly consoling someone. Aging surprisingly well, “Tell Me Where It Hurts” deserves a chance at re-discovery.
