Cher - "Love & Understanding"

During the taping of one of VH-1's Behind The Music series, Cher said that after a nuclear holocaust the only things that would remain would be cockroaches and Cher.  It's hard to believe that in 1991, Cher was releasing her 20th album.  Her "Love Hurts" album gave us the hits "Save Up All Your Years", "The Shoop Shoop Song", and "Love & Understanding."  The latter sounded like it came from the soundtrack of an epic Hollywood blockbuster with its heavy melodies and strings.  The song climbed to #3 on the Hot Adult Contemporary Chart, but now only gets played on Cher's numerous farewell tours.
