Pain (Fun Factory song)


"Pain" is a song by German Eurodance band Fun Factory, released in November 1994, by Scorpio Music and Regular Records, as the fourth and last single from their debut-album, NonStop. It is written by Bülent Aris, Rodney Hardison and Toni Cottura, and produced by Aris and Cottura. The song was a top-10 hit in Finland, peaking at number eight. In Germany, Austria and Sweden, it became a top-30 hit. Outside Europe, "Pain" peaked at number 30 in Israel. The accompanying music video was directed by R.T. Firefly and produced by Chopstick films. It received "buzz bin" rotation on MTV Europe and was B-listed on Germany's VIVA in January and February 1995. The CD single also featured the video for the band's previous hit single, "Take Your Chance". James Hamilton from Music Weeks RM Dance Update described the song as an "instantly familiar cliches packed but powerful cheesy Euro galloper".
