Jon Francis Bongiovi, más
conocido como Jon Bon Jovi, nace en 1962 en Perth Amboy, New Jersey. Su madre,
una antigua miss, intenta adentrarle en el mundo de la música, pero el tema no
le atrae hasta varios años después, tras asistir a algunos conciertos.
Comienza a tocar en una banda de rythm 'n' blues, 'Atlantic City Expressway',
conocida en el ambiente musical de New Jersey. Aquí conoce a Dave Bryan, con
quien colaborará después en proyectos de mayor calado.
Unos años después, Jon entró en el grupo 'The Rest', pero problemas con el jefe
del grupo hacen que lo deje al poco tiempo.
Entonces decide irse a Nueva York, a trabajar a unos conocidos estudios de
grabación. Aquí tiene la posibilidad de ver grabar a los más grandes artistas
del momento y aprender de ellos. Consigue grabar una maqueta con un tema, 'Runaway',
que tiempo después sería un gran éxito.
Junto a Dave Bryan crea un grupo, 'Wild Ones', que resultó ser un fracaso en sus
actuaciones en directo y que no fue capaz de conseguir el patrocinio de ninguna
discográfica.
Gracias al éxito de 'Runaway', Polygram se fijó en Jon y le hizo un gran
contrato, dándole libertad absoluta para contratar a los músicos que deseara
para un nuevo grupo. Entonces se puso en contacto con David Bryan y contrataron
a Alen John Such, Tico Torres, como batería, y Richie Sambora como guitarrista.
El primer disco, 'Bon Jovi', salió en 1984, y el primer single fue precisamente 'Runaway', su
primer éxito. Consiguieron un notable resultado en ventas, a pesar de ser un
grupo de rock duro, menos acostumbrados a vender.
El segundo disco, '7800º Fahrenheit' tuvo un resultado más discreto y hubo que esperar al
tercer álbum, 'Slippery When Wet', para ver el triunfo definitivo del grupo. Con este
trabajo consiguieron llegar al número uno de las listas de éxitos y propició una
gira de más de un año por todo el mundo.
En 1988 publican 'New Jersey', una repetición de la fórmula empleada en el disco anterior y
que les sirvió para repetir con un rotundo éxito.
En 1990 sale a la luz 'Blaze Of Glory', la banda sonora de la película 'Arma Joven', con la que
Jon optó al Oscar de Hollywood y con el que ganó el premio al mejor single de
los premios Award.
En 1991, tras cambiar de mánager, publican 'Keep The Faith', un nuevo éxito para el grupo, llegando nuevamente a ser
número uno y quizás el mejor del grupo. El ritmo se endureció un poco y las
letras maduraron.
Después de ello, han publicado un disco recopilatorio,
'Crossroad', y un disco de estudio,
'These Days'. Sus últimos trabajos hasta la fecha han sido
'Destination Anywhere' y 'Crush'.
En 2002 publican un nuevo álbum, titulado 'Bounce'.
12 nuevas composiciones, tanto baladas como temas rockeros, hacen uso de la
narrativa y música de éxitos anteriores del grupo. Grabado en el Estado natal
del grupo, Nueva Jersey, el altamente esperado "Bounce" muestra a Jon Bon Jovi y
a Richie Sambora como productores junto a Luke Ebbin, el cual produjo "Crush",
disco que fue doble platino en USA y que vendió más de 8 millones de copias en
todo el mundo.
It's My Life - CrushThis 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! |
Say It Isn't So - CrushThere's no Santa Claus It was all a lie No man in the moon Just a big light in the sky I hear Disneyland Might lose Mickey Mouse In some giant hostile corporate shake-up Tell me it's a nightmare Please wake me up (Say it isn't so) I found a book of matches From someplace we've never been How come you hang the phone up The minute I walk in Last night I had this dream That I was losing you I woke up in a cold sweat shaking Rescue me my heart is breaking Say it isn't so (tell me it's not true) Say it isn't so (I believe in you) Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof) They did it all with strings Say everything's alright (couldn't be, not you) Say it isn't so Superman don't fly Elvis Presley died They deep fried the king Like some tacky cheesy bathing beauty Dancing on the beach in a bad b-movie Say it isn't so (tell me it's not true) Say it isn't so (I believe in you) Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof) Say everything's alright (couldn't be, not you) Say it isn't so (don't give up on me) Say it isn't so (don't give up on you) Get me through the night (we'll make it through) Make everything alright (couldn't be, not you) Say it isn't so..

Thank You For Loving Me - CrushIt's hard for me to say the things I want to say sometimes There's no one here but you and me And that broken old street light Lock the doors We'll leave the world outside All I've got to give to you Are these five words when I Thank you for loving me For being my eyes When I couldn't see For parting my lips When I couldn't breathe Thank you for loving me Thank you for loving me I never knew I had a dream Until that dream was you When I look into your eyes The sky's a different blue Cross my heart I wear no disguise If I tried, you'd make believe That you believed my lies Thank you for loving me For being my eyes When I couldn't see For parting my lips When I couldn't breathe Thank you for loving me You pick me up when I fall down You ring the bell before they count me out If I was drowning you would part the sea And risk your own life to rescue me Lock the doors We'll leave the world outside All I've got to give to you Are these five words when I Thank you for loving me For being my eyes When I couldn't see You parted my lips When I couldn't breathe Thank you for loving me When I couldn't fly Oh, you gave me wings You parted my lips When I couldn't breathe Thank you for loving me |
One Wild Night - CrushIt's a hot night, the natives are restless We're sweating by the light of the moon There's a voodoo mojo brewing at the go-go That could knock a witch off her broom We slither on in and shed our skin Make our way into the bump and the grind So I'm passing by, she gives me the eye So I stop to give her a light One wild night (blinded by the moonlight) One wild night (24 hours of midnight) One wild night (I stepped into the twilight zone And she left my heart with vertigo) One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night Havin' as much fun as you can in your clothes Margarita had me feelin' alright It just might be that I found religion I've been on my knees for half of the night Then I'm rolling the bones with Jimmy 'no dice' Gonna take him for a couple weeks' pay Man, if you lose this roll I take your girlfriend home So I stopped But you're not gonna believe who comes walking out One wild night (blinded by the moonlight) One wild night (24 hours of midnight) One wild night (I stepped into the twilight zone And she left my heart with vertigo) One wild night (hey, c'est la vie) One wild night (welcome to the party) One wild night (life is for the living so You gotta live it up, come on let's go) One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night Guitar solo One wild night (blinded by the moonlight) One wild night (24 hours of midnight) One wild night (I stepped into the twilight zone And she left my heart with vertigo) One wild night (hey, c'est la vie) One wild night (welcome to the party) One wild night (life if for the living so You gotta live it up, come on let's go) One wild, one wild, one wild, one.. One wild night (blinded by the moonlight) One wild night (24 hours of midnight) One wild night (I stepped into the twilight zone) For one wild night One wild night (hey, c'est la vie) One wild night (welcome to the party) One wild night (life is for the living) All we've got is one wild night One wild night (4x) One wild night blinded by the moonlight One wild night 24 hours of midnight One wild night stepped into the twilight zone for One wild, one wild, one wild, one wild night. |
Undivided That was my brother lost in the rubble
That was our mothers, those were our children
That was our fathers, that was each one of us
A
million prayers to God above
A
million tears make an ocean of
I
found courage in the smoke and dust
I
found faith in the songs you silenced
Deep down it's ringing out in each of us
Yeah... yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
One
for love
One
for truth
One
for me, one for you Where we once were divided, now we stand
united
We
stand as one... undivided.
How
many hands? How many hearts? How many dreams been torn apart?
as
One

Undivided.

Everyday I used to be the kind of guy
Who'd never let you look inside
I'd smile when I was crying
I had nothing but a life to loose
Thought I had a lot to proof
Bleedin', sweatin', dyin'
Hear me when I say
Gonna live my life everyday
I'm
gonna touch the sky
And
I spread these wings and fly
I
ain't here to play
I'm
gonna live my life everyday
and
fly), oh I I'm gonna live my life everyday
