Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about What Are Words. By Songfacts®.

American Idol contestant Chris Medina released this single the day after the decision was made not to advance him into the top 24 of the competition. The song is about his fiancée, Juliana, who suffered a brain injury as the result of a car wreck.

The song was written by writer/producer Rodney Jerkins. "I always knew who (he) was, but after doing some research, I didn't realize how 'the man' he actually was," said Medina of learning that Jerkins wanted to collaborate. "The words totally embody what my situation is. It's heartfelt, it's real and it was an honor to be asked to put my voice to this wonderful material."

Medina's back-story about his fiancée touched Jennifer Lopez, who had to be comforted by her fellow American Idol judges when the decision was made to eliminate him. The two singers are connected as Jerkins also penned Lopez's #1 single, "If You Had My Love."
