#NEWMUSIC: GWEN STEFANI – “USED TO LOVE YOU”
"I don't know why I cry, but I think it's I 'cause I remembered for the first time that since I hated you, that I used to love you".

Although there's been a couple false starts (remember Baby Don't Lie???), Gwen Stefani releases this new track in a clip directed by longtime collaborator Sophie Muller. Stefani reflects on lost love ...
