"Hard to Say I'm Sorry" is a ballad performed by the American rock group Chicago, written by band member Peter Cetera and producer David Foster from the album Chicago 16, released in 1982. The song hit Number 1 for two weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on September 11 of that year. It was their first top fifty hit since 1978's "No Tell Lover". The song, as well as the album on which it is featured, was a marked departure from Chicago's traditional soft rock, horns-driven sound, taking on a more polished and modern feel. In fact, there were no horns featured on the track, instead being traded for layered synthesizers and heavier distorted electric guitars in a more updated 1980's fashion. This was done to revitalize the band that was considered by some to be past its commercial prime at the time. The album version of "Hard to Say I'm Sorry" segued into a second song titled "Get Away," which was closer to the older horn-driven Chicago sound of the 1970s. Most Adult Contemporary radio stations at the time, however, did not play the entire album track, choosing to cut it off just before "Hard to Say I'm Sorry" segued into "Get Away." About half the Top 40 radio stations played the longer version with "Get Away." Today the majority of airplay of this song takes place on Adult Contemporary radio stations, most of which play the shorter one. The music video itself used the album version, which was shot in Greece.    Download this sheet!
