Extreme was a "funk metal" band formed in Boston in 1985-86 consisting of guitar virtuoso Nuno Bettencourt, singer/lyricist Gary Cherone, bassist Pat Badger and drummer Paul Geary (later replaced by drum god Mike Mangini). The band's influences range from the progressive hard rock and elaborate multi-vocals parts of Queen, as well as Beatlesque pop and touches of lounge jazz. Consequently, Extreme's music is never easy to classify; it's not just heavy metal, hard rock, or pop —their albums cover all of that territory with a sweeping ambition and a social consciousness to match. Although a hard rock band, it was the Everly Brothers-style acoustic ballad, "More Than Words," that crossed them over into the mainstream — it hit number one and the follow-up single, the acoustic-based pop rocker "Hole Hearted," hit number four. They released two albums in the hey day of glam metal but recieved diminished attention from the mainstream following the grungeexplosion following the release of Nirvana's "Nevermind"in 1991.

Hip Today Lyrics

Extreme

you'll be gone tomorrow
you'll be gone tomorrow
gone tomorrow

preoccupied with the latest fashion
hip today, hip today

with wide open eyes
on the next big thing you can cash in
hip today, hip today

no never contrived
it's an overnight sensation
a clever disguise
that hides all of your pretension

Sally's selling out
her seashells for souls
hope I don't die
before I get old

Hip today
You'll be gone tomorrow
You'll be gone tomorrow
Gone tomorrow

Hip today
You'll be gone tomorrow
You'll be gone tomorrow
Gone tomorrow

Dancing in your head
Visions of rave reviews
Hip today, hip today
Believing all that's read
Conceiving another guru
Hip today, hip today

Having made your bed
Falling short of (filling shoes)
You've been left for dead
'Cause there's always someone new

Sally's selling out
her seashells for souls
hope I don't die
before I get old

Hip today
You'll be gone tomorrow
You'll be gone tomorrow
Gone tomorrow

Hip today
You'll be gone tomorrow
You'll be gone tomorrow
Gone tomorrow

Hip today

Hip today
You'll be gone tomorrow
You'll be gone tomorrow
Gone tomorrow

Hip today
You'll be gone tomorrow
You'll be gone tomorrow
Gone tomorrow

Hip today
You'll be gone tomorrow
You'll be gone tomorrow
Gone tomorrow

Hip today
You'll be gone tomorrow
You'll be gone tomorrow
Gone tomorrow
