Maybe if you water it down a little? I am putting a link below about pizza sauces. About Tomato Paste is says: So, a pizzeria owner must decide whether to buy paste (or extra heavy puree) and dilute it with water, or buy a less-concentrated product such as a lighter puree or a pizza sauce at the exact solids level of the finished pizza sauce. The reason for buying higher concentration paste or puree and diluting it with water is that it’s cheaper. The reason for buying a lower-concentration puree or sauce is that it provides a more natural tomato flavor.

Bleah. No.
You could, as suggested, water it down, but it's still not going to taste great.
Tomato pasta sauces work pretty well, though. Any basic 'spaghetti sauce' sort of thing will do.
This guy diluted it:

but I'm still not buying that it tasted all that great.
If tomato paste is what you have on hand, fine, but cut it with some other flavours, as in:

Probably not. Tomato paste is pretty thick and the flavor is concentrated. If you want to combine it with a tomato sauce to give it a stronger flavor and thicker consistency that would be okay, but i wouln't just use the tomato paste.

You can but add a little sugar to it and Italian spices. Tomato sauce would be better with added sugar and spices.

Definatly not. Pizza requires a thin sauce and it is not in the oven long enough to cook down leaving a bitter taste.

upload a small can of tomato paste. no longer something greater. in case you unfold this on a pizza crust with some cheese, pepperoni, some black or green olives, or different topping, it is going to style tremendous.

Its ok, but may not taste great. Lots of people put weirder stuff on pizza these days.
