Inspirational New Song…….

So if you follow the blog consistently, you probably know that Bon Jovi is one of my all time favorite Bands. 

 They have a new album called “The Circle” and the major single on it is called “We Weren’t Born to Follow.”  In the Spirit of “Living On A Prayer,” and “It’s My Life” comes another song that promises hope and a melodic chant for getting off of your ass.

 A throw back to the good old days, we even get a quick guitar solo from Richie Sambora sporting his usual Fender six string.  Tico does his usual fine job of aggressive work on the drums….

 Yes, to some of you, it may be cheesy or too much of a “Good feeling” type of song, but even the most cynical jaded bastards amongst you will have to rock out to this one, and who knows, maybe even appreciate the image of Chinese Student standing up to the tanks at Tianamen square. (And yes I get that it’s not sophisticated songwriting, but it doesn’t stop it from being fun and motivational.)

 Given the current rough economic times, there are a lot of people who are out of jobs, or have had their homes foreclosed.  Songs like this help get ya through the day sometimes…. (And my new favorite song to listen to before hitting the gym.)

So here is some optimism, especially for the sensitive ones who were flabbergasted over the Johnny stuff.
