He lost the girl and wants more time to make her stay or love him more.

I always thought it was about him splittting up with his girlfriend, and going round to her father's house so that he could try and get them back together. Maybe it's one of those songs that's open to different interpretation.

Oh boy...With the exception of Becky, who hates Richie because he sings wanTED, everybody over here thinks Richie is the better singer nowadays. Jon's voice is terrible nowadays, no strenght, no depth, no power and no feeling.

Salaam Aleikum,

From what I've heard of Richie recently (which admittedly isn't much), his voice doesn't seem to be quite what it once was either.

But, its all about the harmonising anyway

Jon used to be better but now I'd say Richie. I understand the wanTED! lyric is annoying and it sounds fair better as WAAANed.

My uncles band did a version of Wanted on Friday when I went to see them. I was amazed at how good they were. They played Wanted on two electric guitars rather than acoustics, but the main riff sounded just as good, and the solo was just like Richies. My Uncles the drummer, and every beat was in its place too.

For me Richie has the better voice, but Jon's the better singer, there's a difference, anyway this could go on for ages as it has done the previous times it's been discussed.
