Extreme 成立于己于1986年，阵容是 Nuno Bettencourt, Gray Cherone（vocals）, Patrick Badger (bass), Paul Geary (drums)。乐队于1989年推出了首张同名专辑。当时的乐迷们似乎更愿意看到他们心中的偶像在电视中口吐脏话，在舞台上叼着烟大摔吉他之类傲慢不驯的举止，而乐队的小伙子们则显得过于健康文静，缺少花哨的包装与花边新闻，这也使 MTV 等娱乐业的宣传机器忽视了他们极高的音乐水准与严肃的立意。我行我素的乐队成员们坚持着自己的风格并没有向媚俗的音乐传媒和乐迷们屈服，于1990年推出极为经典之作——《Pornograffitti》。

saying i love you
is not thewordsi 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
morethanwordsis 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
morethanwordsto show you feel
that your love for me is real
what would you say if i took thosewordsaway
then you couldn't make things new
just by saying i love you
morethanwords
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
morethanwordsis 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
morethanwordsto show you feel
that your love for me is real
what would you say if i took thosewordsaway
then you couldn't make things new
just by saying i love you
