It’s My Life
Most of us have heard Bon Jovi sing this song. Hearing it we are singing along, energy flows, we can do no wrong. The first link is that version from a live concert.
But, have you heard his Unplugged version where he brings people to tears singing it more as a ballad — gently, pulling at every inner heart string we have? No? Then click on the second one… He is just amazing.
I was blown away that one song could be done by one person in two totally distinct styles and yet convince me both ways were the right way…. Words are important, but presentation is underrated, I think, after viewing these.
One response so far
Whoa, you’re right. That acoustic version gives it new depth. I’d never heard it before.
Susan, it was a pleasant surprise for me, too!
