“Said I Loved You” was released in October 1993 as the lead single off Bolton’s album, The One Thing. I think there are a bunch of songs that for different reasons are the highlights of my life and career, and when I’m writing or producing and it’s something I feel strongly about, it can be just as emotional and just as powerful as reaching into a standard like ‘When a Man Loves a Woman.’” “That was an unexpected combination of chords and sounds, and that’s part of Mutt’s magic he brings. “He’s one of my favorite producers to watch because of what he brought to the artists,” Bolton praised of Lange to Las Vegas Magazine. The hitmaker adds that of all the songs, “Said I Loved You” is among the ones he’s most proud of. The challenge is really to say something about love in a way that hasn’t been said before.” “There are very few ultimately important things in our lives that we can write about.

It’s special for me because it speaks about love in a way I’d never heard expressed before,” he explains to Classic Pop Magazine.

“‘Said I Love You… But I Lied” is a song I have fun with the audience when I sing it live, and it’s one of my favorites to perform.
