I've been in love with this song ever since the first time I heard it follow IML on Crush. Great riff, great lyrics, love the keyboards, just in general one of my favorite tracks.

It sounds quite syrupy, but I like it.

I think it's one of the best out of Crush... Love Richie's vocals on that one...

Not one of my favourites but wouldn't mind hearing it live again. (although I doubt Jon could do the falsetto part of the song)

Itīs the best song on Crush.

The riff is very good, and very well worked throughout all the song, with differnt parts that make it not repetitive. Thereīs a lot of effort behind this song.

There are two extremely different ways of Jonīs singing here, and the one on the chorus had never been used (and probably wonīt ever be used again). This contrast fits perfectly in the song.

And the lyrics are very intelligent. There was a time when Jon was in love with cinema... Anyway, it was known he would never win an Oscar acting, but that experience let him know better what is behind the movies. The song is critizicing all of that, what lies behind Hollywood and how it affects people, although many people didnīt realised.

Many things to be said about one only song when there are many other songs you cannot say almost anything.

Ive always liked Say It Isnt So. Its quite different from any other Jovi song. You cant say that about many of their tracks.

It does have one thing going for it however, a keyboard solo. They need to involve David a lot more in my opinion.
