Nobu and Ben play another power ballad called Love Hurts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2BjJbKQkgc

from wikipedia:
"Love Hurts" is the name of a song written and composed by Boudleaux Bryant, and first recorded by The Everly Brothers in July 1960. It was released that December on the album A Date With the Everly Brothers, but was never released as a single (A-side or B-side) by the Everlys.
Roy Orbison covered "Love Hurts" in 1961 and issued it as the B-side to "Running Scared". While "Running Scared" was an international hit, the B-side only picked up significant airplay in Australia. Consequently, chart figures for Australia show "Running Scared"/"Love Hurts" as a double A-Side, both sides peaking at #5. This makes Orbison's recording of "Love Hurts" the first version to be a hit.
The lyrics of the song remained unchanged on all versions up until Nazareth's 1975 recording, where the original line "love is like a stove/it burns you when it's hot" was changed to "love is like a flame/it burns you when it's hot". Nazareth's version was an international hit (reaching #8 in the US, #15 in the UK, and #1 in Canada and Norway), and remains the best-known recording of the song.
Cher also recorded the song in 1975 but did not have a hit with it at the time. She recorded a second version in 1991, which became a minor hit in the UK and a substantial hit in Norway.
