Composition and inspiration
"More Than Words Can Say" was written, organized, and produced by former Sheriff vocalist Freddy Curci and guitarist Steve DeMarchi. DeMarchi's sister, Denny, plays the keyboard and sings backing vocals. Curci recorded vocals in Denny DeMarchi's room at the DeMarchi family home.
By that time, their solute band had reached number one with "When I'm With You", and the other band members refused to reunite. Sensing the need to follow-up, Curci and DeMarchi join former guitarist Roger Fisher, bassist Steve Fossen, and drummer Mike Derosier to form the Alias. This song, having a striking similarity to "When I'm with You" (including last sustained note), is the result.
