    This song has helped me through the devorce of my parents. This was also very close to the time when my grandma died and a thought of a sentence I heard her say to my dad “you don’t live to get lived you got a life to live it.” And that sentence and this song helped me a lot, because it made me make the choice to choose for myself instead of the grief of someone else. I know this might seem like a very complex thought for an eleven year old but it worked for me. It also gave me the feeling that I wasn’t weird for doing what feld good at the moment, this being talking to my dead grandma about how lucky she was for not having to experience my parents devorce(she was very close to my mom). It also made me realize that you aren’t crazy, it's the world and that’s what you have to learn to cope with.

    This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
    No silent prayer for the faith-departed
    I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
    You're gonna hear my voice
    When I shout it out loud
    It's my life
    It's now or never
    I ain't gonna live forever
    I just want to live while I'm alive
    (It's my life)
    My heart is like an open highway
    Like Frankie said
    I did it my way
    I just want to live while I'm alive
    It's my life
    This is for the ones who stood their ground
    It's for Tommy and Gina who never backed down
    Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake
    Luck ain't enough
    You've got to make your own breaks
    It's my life
    And it's now or never
    I ain't gonna live forever
    I just want to live while I'm alive
    (It's my life)
    My heart is like an open highway
    Like Frankie said
    I did it my way
    I just want to live while I'm alive
    It's my life
    You better stand tall when they're calling you out
    Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down
    It's my life
    And it's now or never
    I ain't gonna live forever
    I just want to live while I'm alive
    (It's my life)
    My heart is like an open highway
    Like Frankie said
    I did it my way
    I just want to live while I'm alive
    (It's my life)

    I can’t believe it’s been 22 years since this great song came out. I was 11 years old when Living on a prayer came out,and that became my life anthem. Then this song came out in 2000 and took its place. It’s insane how fast time flies by.

    Jon Bon Jovi isn't where he is for no reason. Maybe the lyrics are fairly silly, but he knows his audience, which is crucial. I've heard those who feel he isn't deserving of any recognition, but I feel otherwise. He does do it his way, and it works!
