Importance of the Song

This song has been in my life for many years becasue my mom and dad have introduced his music to me. They are big fans of his music and so am I. I love to listen to his songs in my free time, but "It's my life" has stuck with me. Doing this project helped me understand the meaning of his words and his beliefs.

Connection to Transcendentalism

Intuition

Individuality

Quote: "I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd, you're gonna hear my voice when I shout it out loud,"

  • This expresses the belief that one can't just stay quiet about their feelings and beliefs and that they should speak up and say what they need to say
  • Bon Jovi showed the ability to think instinctively in his song "It's My Life".

Quote: "Like Frankie said I did it my way, I just wanna live while I'm alive. It's my life."

Message of "It's My Life"

This song is about living the way you want and not how you're told and being able to trust your gut and not think out a solution.

It's My Life

by Bon Jovi

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 wanna live while I'm alive

It's my life 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 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

'Cause it's my life!
