“Tragic Comic,” from Extreme’s 1993 album III Sides to Every Story, is a playful yet introspective funk-rock track that blends humor with personal reflection. Written by Gary Cherone and Nuno Bettencourt, the song explores the contradictions of love, fame, and human folly with witty lyrics and catchy grooves. Nuno’s dynamic guitar work and the band’s tight rhythm section give it an energetic, danceable feel while retaining emotional depth. The mood is clever, lively, and slightly ironic—mixing fun and self-awareness in classic Extreme fashion.
