BMI presented Alias lead vocalist and songwriter Freddy Curci with the "Million-airs award" for "More Than Words Can Say".

One million performances is the equivalent of approximately 50,000 broadcast hours, or more than 5.7 years of continuous airplay.

[3] "More Than Words Can Say" was written, arranged, and co-produced by former Sheriff vocalist Freddy Curci and guitarist Steve DeMarchi.

DeMarchi's younger brother Denny played the keyboard and sang the backing vocals.

Sensing the need to follow up the hit, Curci and DeMarchi joined ex-Heart members guitarist Roger Fisher, bassist Steve Fossen, and drummer Mike Derosier to form Alias.
