Common card · No. 395793

"Love Really Hurts Without You" is a song recorded by the British R&B recording artist Billy Ocean. The song – written by Ocean under his real name Leslie Charles with the track's producer Ben Findon – was the second single recorded in the name Billy Ocean (although the singer had had several previous releases using other stage names) and provided Ocean with his first chart record in 1976. The song reached #2 in the UK Singles Chart. It also became Ocean's first Top 40 hit in the US, reaching number 22 on the Billboard Hot 100. It remains tied with the 1977 number-two UK hit "Red Light Spells Danger" as his second-highest charting single in the UK, behind "When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going" which had a four-week run at number one in 1986. It is often cited for its Motown influence.
