Description
A word that everyone knows, but no one can really explain. It swirls in the air under neon lights, asks point-blank questions and at the same time leaves room for dance. There are no philosophical treatises here, just one persistent question, repeated so often that the rhythm itself becomes the answer.
The whole drama is reduced to simplicity: love seems to be there, but then again, it seems not to be there; maybe a sign is needed, or maybe just a little honesty. Against this backdrop, the synthesiser sounds as if it is making the heart beat in sync with the bass. Nothing superfluous - just the beat, the question, and the desire for no one to get hurt.
In the end, it all comes down to that very feeling of a nightclub, where even the most personal cry turns into a common anthem. When hundreds of voices sing together, the question ceases to be lonely - it becomes a ritual where people seek not an answer, but relief.
Lyrics and translation
Original
What is love? Baby, don't hurt me.
Don't hurt me no more.
Baby, don't hurt me.
Don't hurt me no more.
What is love?
Yeah.
Oh, oh.
I don't know why you're not there.
I give you my love, but you don't care.
So what is right, and what is wrong? Give me a sign. What is love?
Baby, don't hurt me.
Don't hurt me no more.
