Bon Jovi, ALWAYS

Tittle: ALWAYS

Album:   Cross Road

Year: 1994

Music style: 

Bon Jovi's musical style has generally been characterized as 'hard rock', 'pop/hair metal', 'arena rock' and 'pop rock', although they have also experimented and varied from these genres at times. The band's first four albums blended the pop metal and hard rock genres, although they had mostly shed the pop metal sound by using a more mature hard rock sound. Bon Jovi returned to a more typical rock sound on The Circle.

What is this song about ?

Basically the guy cheats on his girl with her sister, she storms off devastated, walks the streets before getting found by this artist guy outside his apartment, they go inside, he paints her nude, girl contacts boyfriend to tell him she loves him and wants him back , he comes round to collect her, sees the painting and assumes she slept with this guy because in the picture she is nude, , he trashes the place ,but the girl didn’t understand because he was the principal cheater but she leaves, he sets fire to apartment in a fit of revenge.

Why I have chosen this song ?

I have chosen this song because apart from that is one of my mom’s favorite song I think is one of my favorites too because I love its lyrics and what it means for me. It always makes me feel better when I listen to it because of the love, happiness, and all those good feelings the lyrics has. I think everyone should listen to it and feel it, and try to understand it, because it is very nice.

What does this song makes me feel?

This song makes me feel love and that feeling of sadness when the girl discovered that the guy she met wasn’t what she really thought he was. On the other hand this song has a very special meaning for me, that is, for me Bon Jovi is trying to let people know that everything that we see doesn’t have to be what we immediately imagine, I mean, first we should listen to what had happened before.

      ALWAYS, Bon Jovi
