    Proof of just how much of a visionary nuno was. He had a huge ideas for three sides and unfortunately it was bad timing and wasn’t what fans wanted to hear at the time. Personally I think it’s one of their best albums..brilliant album!

      I appreciate this behind-the-scenes, fly-on-the-wall montage more so than their polished official music videos. To see Nuno so young tapping into his raw musical creativity and bringing it into being is a gift to all of us. I don't doubt for one second that the idea to have a cameraman onboard was Nuno's. The man is genius. He's versatile. He's gorgeous! He's of good character. He is light... Indeed a wayshower/bodhisattva. (May his Atlantis Concerts for Earth be richly blessed.) He's forever in creative motion and his biggest achievements are still unfolding. May God grant him another 30-40 years of music making. He is a supernova!

    IMO, this is Extreme's best song by far. It showcases their musical depth & maturity on every level... song structure, lyrics, hooks, vocals, guitar solo, arrangement & performance. It also shows their originality. Sure, you can hear elements of their influences(Queen, Aerosmith, Van Halen) but not so much that they sound like any one band. It's a nice even mix.
    Bottom line, I don't love everything by Extreme but songs like Rest in Piece, More Than Words and Stop The World make me really appreciate their talent & depth. Cheers

With that being said, most people truly don't realize how much work actually goes into writing a song. It takes a lot of practice and patience working with the rest of the band to make it all come together. And that's just one song. Now multiply that times at least 8-10 songs per album. It really is a lot of work. But at least it's "Extremely" rewarding!

    That was a huge video on MTV in the early 90's. God I miss that time.

    I really like the acoustic jamming for this as their moving on down the road. It really sounds like some classic old country blues from the delta.

    amazing to see how the song developed and it sounds so good on the acoustic! Of course, those are Nuno's hands playing it :) Thanks for sharing!
