Hurts Like Hell
The inspiration for “Hurts Like Hell,” came from the letter James, Wesley Snipes’ character wrote to Bernadette. He was speaking about watching his wife die of cancer and said that it hurt like hell. The inspiration resulted in the song that Aretha Franklin killed in the studio. Babyface shared that she brought peach cobbler with her and recorded this song–the one we hear on the record, in one take.
