A finales de la década de 1980, cuando el glam metal estaba en su apogeo y el rock estaba empezando a diversificarse en direcciones audaces, surgió una banda que traería frescura y virtuosismo al género: Extreme.
Formada en Malden, Massachusetts, Estados Unidos, en 1985, la banda originalmente consistía en Gary Cherone (vocalista), Nuno Bettencourt (guitarra principal), Paul Geary (batería) y Patrick Badger (bajo). Cada uno de ellos llevaba a Extreme una riqueza de habilidades y pasión que rápidamente los colocó en el radar de la industria musical.
En 1989, Extreme lanzó su álbum homónimo debut. Aunque el álbum no conquistó las listas de inmediato, sentó las bases de lo que vendría después. Las canciones, con sus complicados riffs de guitarra y voces poderosas, mostraron el inmenso talento de la banda y captaron la atención de los amantes del rock.
Pero fue su segundo álbum, "Extreme II: Pornograffitti" (1990), el que verdaderamente catapultó a la banda al estrellato. Destacado por su combinación de técnica instrumental, letras inteligentes y melodías pegajosas, el disco produjo varios éxitos, incluido "More Than Words". Esta balada acústica no solo dominó las listas de éxitos, sino que también mostró la capacidad de la banda para crear algo más que canciones de rock tradicionales.
"More Than Words" no fue la única joya de "Pornograffitti". Canciones como "Get the Funk Out" y "Hole Hearted" también se

It's not fair what they put me through
Please tell me what am I supposed to do
Why do I get myself in this situation?
There must be some logical
Answers why I rob the cradle
Can this be love or just infatuation?
Little girl come out and play
I got some candy for my baby
It's your sweet sixteenth birthday celebration
Thank Heaven for little girls who
Grow up in a most peculiar way
You might think she's too young for me
(Little girls)
You know I always say, "You're as young as you feel"
(As you feel)
Yeah, I might be crazy 'cause I like them so young
(Little girls)
But with little girls the best is yet to come come
(Yet to come)
Some they say, I'm too old for her
Old enough to be her father
Incestual blood is thicker than water
Do what's right not morally wrong
Flesh and blood can only be so strong
And it's my God not yours I'll have to answer
Thank Heaven for little girls who
Grow up in a most peculiar way
You might think she's too young for me
(Little girls)
You know I always say, "You're as young as you feel"
(As you feel)
Yeah, I might be crazy 'cause I like them so young
(Little girls)
But with little girls the best is yet to come come
Come come, come come
You might think she's too young for me
(Little girls)
You know I always say, "You're as young as you feel"
(As you feel)
Yeah, I might be crazy 'cause I like them so young
(Little girls)
But with little girls the best is yet to come come
Come come, come come
You might think she's too young for me
(Little girls)
You know I always say, "You're as young as you feel"
(As you feel)
Yeah, I might be crazy 'cause I like them so young
(Little girls)
But with little girls the best is yet to come come
Come come, come come
