"Each Tear" is a song performed by American R&B recording artist Mary J. Blige. It was released as the second international single from her ninth studio album, Stronger with Each Tear . The song is originally sung by just Blige on the US version of her album though on the re-release and on international releases the song is a featured duet to reflect each of the international markets.
Release and promotion
[edit ]The song was re-recorded with several different artists to reflect the international markets. It is featured on editions of the album with one of five people: with Jay Sean for the UK and other countries; with Tiziano Ferro for Italy; with Vanessa Amorosi for Australia; with K'naan for Canada; and with Rea Garvey for Germany.
The Italian version was released to the Italian iTunes Store on February 26, 2010.[1] The German version was released on May 7 as a digital download and on June 18 as a CD single. The UK version was released on May 9, 2010.[2]

A different edit of the song is used for each version of the song but essentially the videos feature the same black and white scenes with the guest vocalist appearing alongside Blige.[3] The video for Italian version featuring Tiziano Ferro was the first to be released on March 24, 2010[4] which was followed by the release of the UK version with Jay Sean on April 1, 2010.[5] The German version premiered on Vevo on April 20, 2010.[6]
