Trivia

Wist je dat? Pain Is So Close To Pleasure was de 5de single release van het album A Kind Of Magic. Voor Mercury is het nummer autobiografisch aangezien hij op zoek was naar een vaste partner en de eenzaamheid hem dan ook zwaar viel. Vreemdgenoeg werd de single niet in Engeland uitgebracht maar wel in Canada, Duitsland, de Verenigde Staten en Nederland. De single versie was een remix en klonk heel anders dan de album versie. In het voorjaar van 1987 wist de single de Top 40 te bereiken en kwam tot nummer 26. Een videoclip voor "Pain" is nooit gemaakt. In een ander liedje van het album "One Year Of Love" refereert Mercury aan de titel "Pain".

Songtekst

Ooh ooh pain is so close to pleasure oh yeah
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life
Ooh ooh pain is so close to pleasure everybody knows
One day we love each other then we're fighting one another all the time
When I was young and just getting started
And people talked to me they sounded broken hearted
Then I grew up and got my imagination
And all I wanted was to start a new relation
So in love but love had a bad reaction
I was looking for some good old satisfaction
But pain is all I got when all I needed was some love and affection
Ooh ooh pain is so close to pleasure yeah yeah
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life
Pain and pleasure
Ooh ooh pain and pleasure
When your plans go wrong and you turn out the light
But inside of your mind you have to put up a fight
Where are the answers that we're all searching for
There's nothing in this world to be sure of anymore
Some days you're feeling good some days you're feeling bad
But if you're feeling happy someone else is always sad
Let the sweetness of love wipe the tears from your face
For better for worse so let's make the best of the rest of our years
Ooh ooh pain is so close to pleasure I told you so
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life
Pain and pleasure
Ooh ooh pain is so close to pleasure yeah yeah
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life
All your life
Pain - pleasure ....
