About This Track
“More Than Words” is a ballad written by and originally performed by the rock band Extreme. It is built around acoustic guitar work by Nuno Bettencourt and the vocals of Gary Cherone (with harmony vocals from Bettencourt), it was released in 1990 on the album Extreme II: Pornograffiti. The song was a departure from the funk metal that had permeated the band’s style previous to its release.
On March 23, 1991, “More Than Words” entered the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at number 81 and soon after reached number one. It also reached number two in the UK Singles Chart, where the group had had success before its American breakthrough. Though they had made a few European charts before, this brought the band to their first mainstream success in the United States. Extreme followed “More Than Words” with another power ballad, “Hole Hearted,” which was slightly faster paced than “More Than Words”, but nevertheless topped at number 4 in the United States and number 3 in Canada.
