    Lyrics
    This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
    No silent prayer for faith-departed
    And 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
    But 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
    Yeah, this is for the ones who stood their ground
    For Tommy and Gina, who never backed down
    Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake
    Luck ain't even lucky, 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
    'Cause it's my life
    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
    'Cause 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
    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
    'Cause it's my life

    Keep in mind the "Tommy and Gina" reference in this song goes back to Living on a Prayer, so for many of us who've been listening to Bon Jovi since the 80s, this is the continuation of our collective story.

    This isn't just a song, it's an anthem. Bon Jovi was an icon in the 80's and 90's. This video has a billion views because, once upon a time, practically *everybody* knew who the band was even if they didn't like their music. Their songs were all over the radio and their videos were on MTV every hour. They were also responsible for other good bands getting their shot, such as Cinderella. And if that wasn't enough, Jon Bon Jovi is someone who gives a lot of effort towards charities. Back when they were at their most popular, it wasn't unheard of for them to massively tip wait staff every time they went somewhere. Out here where I live, when they rolled through, the waitresses at the overnight diner they stopped at were all tipped $500 each... Which was a lot more money in the 80s than it is today.

      Jon Bon Jovi has a heart the size of a watermelon. Always there to do what he can, when he can. Like when he said: "I'll gladly pay more taxes to help the less fortunate." And I know this for a fact, because I'm the one he said it to - I was lucky enough to bump into him when the band was in Amsterdam doing promotion for the "Have a nice day" album in 2005. That time I also found out the band had donated one million dollars to the victims of hurricane Katrina, but anonymously - they didn't like the idea of flaunting and making it appear like a promotion campaign rather than them actually caring. These are class act people, make no mistake.

      *Well, after the band absence, here in Europe they survived Grunge with 1992 comeback album "Keep The Faith", which spawned some singles, including "Bed Of Roses", then they've released their first Best Of-album "CrossRoad" in 1994, which included their biggest hit so far, "Always", and the 2nd new song "Someday I'll Be Saturday Night", only to lead up to their 1995 album (these Days), which spawned 5 singles in Europe. The band paused then for 3 years between 1997-2000, which gave space for 2 solo-albums [1 by JBJ, 1 by RS] and a first sign of life by the band in 1999 with their soundtrack-song "Real Life". Then they came back in spring 2000 with the first single from the album "Crush", "It's My Life".*

YOU DO YOU and if you like it, your contemporaries can kick rocks because it's never about them but what makes you happy. Next year will be 40 years that Bon Jovi has been around making music.

Live every day like it's your last....that's the message i always got from this song and it's always been a favorite of mine. I'm glad that you decided to listen to it. Awesome choice, seriously.

It's just fodder to fill your head. But stuff from 20-30 years ago really stirs your emotions and makes your heart get involved in it.

    I'm with you. A billion is a lot for this song. I think maybe because us die hard Bon Jovi fans are so eager to hear this band that when this song came out and it was so good, we couldn't get enough.
    Bon Jovi back in the 80s were the hooptie! They made hit after hit. Then nothing great, but we never gave up. Their first hit "Living on a Prayer" got us addicted.
    They always raised our vibrations and we wanted that feel good to continue. Anyway, we all get old but we did have the best music. All real talent! No autotune, no computerised sounds. Just talent

    Bon Jovi has a HUGE following! Particularly with the ladies of a certain age… (40-55+) as we were all at the right age when he was starting out… yeah, the memories… so, yes, lots and LOTS of views! There’s a movie called Young Guns 2, where he did a whole album of songs inspired by the movie, they are SO awesome!! As for others that you could react to… classic, The Doors, 80’s- Van Halen, Motley Crew, Def Leopard, Poison, Twisted Sister, Cinderella, Kiss, Scorpions, Judas Priest, and of course Aerosmith (there are tons more!) and if you want to get completely out of the rock range… there’s a Moroccan born Canadian artist, Faouzia, she’s only 21, turning 22 this year, studying computer engineering who has an absolutely amazing voice! She did a cover of J. Coles Middle Child (absolutely awesome). Or try something foreign… Dimash, he has a style for everyone. What I mean is, he sings all the genres, he also sings all the ranges and he can sing them in 13 different languages. I look forward to seeing more of your reactions… and saw in one of your Guns & Roses reactions your Deut. 31:6 band, awesome.

    Written by the one of the world Most successful producers/songwriters MAX MARTIN. The band choose the song as their comeback. Max Martin presented the song to A&R, publishers, agents and managers for consideration and Bon Jovi picked it up after rejecting 60 other songs . Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora added some stuff and lyrics and became co-writers.😀

    It's really fascinating to see a rap fan listen to rock in the beginning; not sure if they like what they're hearing, but then slowly start to get into it until they jumping in their seats and enjoying the song. That's when you know a group has talent. When they can get people who would not normally listen to their style excited and involved.

    Lyrically, Frankie refers to Frank Sinatra, "I Did It My Way" and "Tommy and Gina never back down" from their song "Livin on a Prayer."
    That song alone reinvented after 9/11.

    Much of the rock and metal music of the 80s was about breaking societal norms and living your best life to the max, regardless of what the elders say you have to do. It’s been accused of causing a breakdown in discipline which seems to be a recurring theme of those who try to shut it down but the message generally isn’t one of breaking rules that should be kept. It’s about not letting daddy tell you which college to attend, not letting mum tell you who to marry, not letting the popular kids tell you who the losers are, not being afraid to go against the grain and not being afraid to take a chance over the fear of failure. A lot of the rap artists you may listen to took their queues from the rock and metal music of the 80s

    Hey Jojo. Man, what a great reaction to one of my all-time top favorite songs! I am so happy & thankful that you really enjoyed this one and actually FELT something - as I do, Every. Single. Time I hear it and/or see the video...fun facts: I first saw Bon Jovi perform their very first single called "Runaway" on a classic 70's & 80's tv Show called "Solid Gold" in the early 80's (I was born in '71 so the 80's were my formative teen years!). I have seen them play LIVE several times over the years, and I actually ran into Jon and the Band one day at a place called Signature Flight Support at Teterboro, NJ a few years ago when I was working as a charter jet co-captain. Talk about a really, really COOL "Circle of Life" type of moment... 😎🤘❤‍🔥

    They write for the money, not from and for the heart. When you have the rollercoaster of emotion's, you know that the person who wrote it, is feelin all the same thing's, as they pull you into their own journey, at the same time. And, that's what Jon Bon Jovi(The person singing) is known for doing, with his song's, that he has written himself, with help of other's idea's and opinion's...

    the reason it reminds you of living on a prayer is because the guitar player (Ritchie Sambora) is using a device called a "Talk box." It's essentially a separate, highly distorted little amp with a physical tube coming out of it. The guitar player puts it in his mouth and he able to manipulate the sound of the guitar with his mouth and make it sound like he is talking. Both living on a prayer and it's my life feature it. Along with a handful of others. But those are the two main ones that pretty much everyone knows.

    My mans, you need to start reacting to Alter Bridge. Myles Kennedys voice is out of this world. Blackbird is a must, but maybe start with Open your Eyes. Also, if you can, try to check out the live version, they are even better than the studio versions. I guarantee you, every song they do is a banger and full of emotions and meaning.
