Extreme

? ? ?

Tell me, Jesus, are you angry?
One more sheep has just gone astray

A hardening of hearts, turning to stone
Wandering off so far from home

So many children losing time
Walk in darkness, looking for a sign

Chasing their rainbows, the future looks so bright
Slowly we're losing sight of the light

Who cares?
Who cares?
Who cares?
Tell me who cares?
Who cares?

Who cares?
Who cares?
Who cares?
Tell me who cares?
Who cares?

All alone out in the cold
Can't look back, am I growing old?

I chose a path, is this my fate?
Am I finding out the truth too late?

Who cares?
Who cares?
Who cares?
Tell me who cares?
Who cares?

Who cares?
Who cares?
Who cares?
Tell me who cares?

Here I am, a naked man
Nothing to hide with empty hands
Remember me, I am the one
Who lost his way, your Prodigal Son

Am I ever gonna change?
Will I always stay the same?
Say one thing, then I do the other
Same old song goes on forever

(Who cares? Who cares? Who cares?
Tell me who cares? Who cares?)

Rise, rise and shine
A new day is coming, yes, it is

Extreme is an American rock band, currently headed by frontman Gary Cherone and guitarist Nuno Bettencourt. The band reached the height of their popularity in the late 1980s and early 1990s with original line-up Gary Cherone, Nuno Bettencourt, Paul Geary and Patrick Badger.

Among some of Extreme’s musical influences are Van Halen, Queen, Aerosmith and Led Zeppelin. The band played at The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert in 1992. Geary left the group in 1994 to form an artist management company, and Cherone joined Van Halen in 1996. The band has described their music as “funky metal” in the early days, but it would evolve much more in the mid-1990s by blending classic rock influences with post-grunge and alternative rock.

They have released five studio albums, two EPs (in Japan) and two compilation albums since their formation. The band was one of the most successful rock acts of the early 1990s, selling over 10 million albums worldwide. Extreme achieved their greatest success with their 1990 album Pornograffitti, which peaked at number 10 on the Billboard 200, and was certified gold in May 1991 and double platinum in October 1992. That album featured the acoustic ballad single “More Than Words”, which reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.
