extreme

walaupun gitaris sekaligus dedengkot band ini, Nuno Bettencourt's mengambil gaya permainan dari Eddie van Hallen, tetapi hatinya tetap condong ke progresive rock ala Queen. seperti Beatlesque pop dan sentuhan-sentuhan lounge jazz. sebagai konsekeunsinya musik-musiknya extreme sangat sulit untuk ditentukan alirannya. bukan hanya heavy metal, hard rock atau pop ---, album-album mereka mencakup dari semua aliran-aliran musik tadi membawa semua ambisi dan kesadaran sosial yang memang pas di jamannya. Dengan album kedua mereka, Pornografitti, Bettencour tetap menunjukan rasa cintanya pada Heavy Metal tetapi masih tetap pada gaya Accoustic Ballad, "More Than Word" yang melampaui tendensi mereka.
album-album mereke:

  • Extreme (1989)
  • Pornograffitti (1990)
  • III Sides To Every Story (1992)
  • waiting For The Punchline (1995)

More than word

Saying I love you
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you
Not to say, but if you only knew
How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
Cos I'd already know
What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you
More than words
Now I've tried to talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands and touch me
Hold me close don't ever let me go
More than words is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
Cos I'd already know
What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you
More than words
