It's a Sin
Brent Spiner feat. The Sunspots Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Be sure it's true
When you say: "I love you"
It's a sin to tell a lie
Millions of hearts have been broken
just because these words were spoken
I love you, yes I do. I love you
If you break my heart i'll die
Be sure that it's true
When you say: "I love you"
It's a sin to tell a lie
Patrick Stewart (says):
Be sure that it's true
When you say: "I love you, darling"
Bacause, because you know
that it's a terrible sin to tell a lie
So many, oh so many hearts have been broken
And all because, because these words were spoken
Brent Spiner (sings):
I love you, yes I do. I love you
If you break my heart i'll die
Be sure that it's true
It's a sin to tell a lie
The song "It's a Sin" by Brent Spiner feat. The Sunspots is a cover of a popular 1941 song by a Canadian country artist named Eddy Arnold. The lyrics of the song are about the importance of being sincere when expressing love to someone, as millions of hearts have been broken because of false expressions of love. The song emphasizes the value of honesty and the terrible repercussions that lies can bring.
The first verse sung by Brent Spiner talks about how saying "I love you" without truly meaning it can cause a lot of pain and heartbreak. People have suffered great losses, and the reason behind it has often been these three words. The chorus reiterates the importance of being truthful about love when expressing it to someone. If you don't mean it, don't say it because it's a sin to tell a lie.
In the second part of the song, Patrick Stewart adds his voice, emphasizing the importance of honesty in a relationship. He states that lying about love is a terrible sin that can lead to a lot of broken hearts. The chorus is repeated once more by Brent Spiner, driving the message home that we should always be sincere when expressing our love to someone.

I'm saddened that I'm the only one to comment thus far, but honored to be the first. Anyone who appreciates Brent Spiner's genius and equally values the songs of a distant era, will find themselves here eventually. Sing on, Sunspots!

@ColonelStraker
Nice. Patrick Stewart discusses this song and actually chooses it as his final track on BBC's The Desert Island Discs series where Patrick Stewart was interviewed many years ago. A fantastic show overall; especially, this particular interview. Check it out!!
@ameliatbh001
The fact that Brent Spiner called in these guys to take part in this goes to show you how wonderfully they got along both on-camera and off. This is so cool to me.
@dkuntz
Sir Pat and Brent are real life best friends. Brent was the best man at Sir Pat's wedding (Sir Ian officiated, if I recall.)
@EllieBee_.
@@dkuntz Nope it was LeVar Burton's wedding,Brent and LeVar were really close bestfriends so LeVar asked Brent if he can be his best man🥺
@michelleregis6181
ditto!
@citizenwayne4550
@@EllieBee_. Actually you're right and wrong. Brent WAS LeVar's best man. He was ALSO Patrick Stewart's best man. Speaks to the kind of guy Brent is.
