"Tell Me Where It Hurts" is the 2007 single from alternative rock band Garbage, and is scheduled for release worldwide by A&E Records (excluding North America) [1] preceding the band's career-spanning retrospective album Absolute Garbage. There has been no confirmation of a North American single release. [1]

"Tell Me Where It Hurts" was written by Garbage following the end of the band's temporary hiatus. At a benefit show organised by drummer Butch Vig[2], Vig told Billboard, "Despite the layoff, the group has been sharing song ideas via the Internet. We need to sit down in a room and play them and get them complete". [3] "Tell Me Where It Hurts" came from sessions the group held in Spring 2007. [4]
