Although the initial reports that LOST HIGHWAY was to be Bon Jovi's "country album" turned out to be somewhat overstated, it does sit comfortably at the meeting ground between commercial rock and commercial country that Garth Brooks started exploring in the early 1990s, and that folks like Big and Rich or Toby Keith mine successfully today. In fact, Big and Rich continued their bid to appear on every album recorded in Nashville in 2007 by helping out on "We Got It Going On," while the ballad "Stranger" features guest vocals by Leann Rimes. Aside from those nods to the contemporary Nashville scene, and of course, the Hank Williams nod of the album title, LOST HIGHWAY is at heart an old-fashioned Bon Jovi album, based on their patented combo of Richie Sambora's hard-candy guitar riffs and Jon Bon Jovi's heartthrob looks and Everyman lyrical persona. Highlights include the teary lost-love ballad "Seat Next To You" and the powerful first single "You Want To Make A Memory."



"Artistic freedom made this record possible," says Jon Bon Jovi. "Musical freedom to explore--and emotional freedom to express what was in our hearts." The result of that freedom is Lost Highway, an album Jon describes as "a Bon Jovi record influenced by Nashville." Bon Jovi explains. "Nashville is all about songs and songwriters. If you're someone like me who loves songs and hanging out with songwriters, Nashville is the place. I thrive on that feeling and I'm inspired by that creative ambience." The result, a haunting set of 12 new and original sounding songs, is a stunning, multi-layered look into the nature of love and life in all its glory. Love, like life, is lost, found, forgotten and reclaimed in this collection. The moods are many, but the core feeling is pure Bon Jovi. "Writing this record with Jon was deeply cathartic," says Richie Sambora, who collaborated on ten of the songs. "I was going through emotional changes that were new for me. An ailing father. A painful divorce. The start of a new chapter in my life. I poured everything I had into this project, every last bit of soul at my command." "For over twenty years now," Jon explains, "Richie and I have been close collaborators. Even when our songs create fictional stories, they reveal our states of mind. To a large degree, Lost Highway focuses on the light that love brings. When you shine the light on love, you see the chinks in the armor. You see every crevice, every crack. And that's all right". Lost Highway is Bon Jovi's tenth studio album since the band formed in the early eighties. One hundred and twenty million albums and 2500 concerts in over 50 countries later, Bon Jovi is enjoying the greatest popularity in their history.



"[T]he adult-contemporary horse they're riding does have its charm, like the fist-pumping chorus of the title track or the joyous slide of Richie Sambora's guitar on 'Whole Lot of Leavin' Goin' On."

Entertainment Weekly (p.69)



Given the chart success of their Grammy-winning country single "Who Says You Can't Go Home," it's no surprise Bon Jovi upped the ante by recording an entire album paying homage to Nashville. In some ways, it's amazing they didn't do this sooner, given the way Keith Urban in particular is blurring country-pop lines, much as Garth Brooks and others did in the 1990s. To their credit, you won't find predictably shallow invocations of past country icons or any self-conscious, in-your-face down-home twang added strictly to remind the listener of the musical premise. In fact, Lost Highway isn't "Bon Jovi goes country" so much as a meaningful tribute to the Nashville ethos done on their own terms. They honor the spirit of the town through 12 simple, direct originals. The intimate, smoldering "(You Want To) Make a Memory," the ballad "Seat Next To You," "Lost Highway" and its roaring celebration of freedom, and "Stranger," an effective duet with LeAnn Rimes, all invoke country's spirit, and "I Love This Town," an eloquent nod to Nashville itself, ties it together admirably.

"Over a pulsing crescendo of acoustic guitars, piano and strings, Bon Jovi delivers his most soulful vocal in years..."

Billboard Magazine, April 2007



Früher oder später werden medizinische Studien eindeutig belegen, dass der menschliche Körper etwa 105 Jahre lang komplett ohne die Musik von Bon Jovi auskommen kann. Kein einziger Mensch ist bislang durch radikalen Bon- Jovi-Entzug gesundheitlich geschädigt worden. Die Natur behilft sich nämlich, sollte gerade kein Bon Jovi in der Nähe sein, mit einem raffinierten Trick: Der Körper hört einfach was anderes. Das Risiko, von Bon Jovi psychisch und physisch abhängig zu werden, entspricht in etwa dem Risiko, an einer Sucht nach Ziegenmilch zu versterben. Hört man einen der Songs Samstagnachmittag zwischen zwei Fußballbundesliga-Einblendungen im Radio, dann kann es geschehen, dass sich vergnügt das Herz hebt und man plötzlich Lust auf Grillfleisch, Autowaschen oder Lederjacketragen bekommt. Oder es passiert einfach nichts weiter. Bei ""Lost Highway"" sollte man wirklich nicht an die Düsternis von David Lynchs gleichnamigem Film denken. Sehr nette Songs, sehr hübsch dahinmusiziert. Nur: vollkommen ohne Risiken und Nebenwirkungen.

Tobias Schmitz - Stern



Serious country fans know that "Lost Highway" is a Leon Payne-written Hank Williams classic, but even though Bon Jovi's 2007 album shamelessly trades on iconographic country imagery in a bid for a genre-skipping crossover hit, it's designed for those country fans who don't much care about Hank's legend (never mind knowing anything about Leon Payne). Lost Highway has little to do with any country prior to Garth Brooks, a move that makes sense since Garth was the gateway drug to country music for old Bon Jovi fans in the '90s. In that regard, it makes perfect sense for Bon Jovi to refashion themselves as a modern country act, because their heartland anthems are as thoroughly middle American as any country artist, and in 2007 country was at the core of mainstream pop music; in other words, the band's fans already have made the crossover, so they wouldn't see this crossover move as crass, just as catching up. But when it comes right down to it, Bon Jovi's self-styled country album has little to do with contemporary country in 2007, either. Despite duets with LeAnn Rimes and Big & Rich, despite the occasional fiddle or steel guitar, Lost Highway recalls nothing so much as a latter-day Bon Jovi record in how it balances fist-pumping arena anthems with heavy doses of sentiment. Not long after the buried fiddles on "Lost Highway" fade from memory and enough time passes to excuse the bad Toby Keith knockoff "Summertime," it's virtually impossible to distinguish this album anything after 1992's Keep the Faith. Which isn't necessarily bad, mind you -- Bon Jovi has a flair for commercial craft, knowing how to hit the sweet spot between the mundane and melodic, and there are times on Lost Highway where the group does so again. Ironically enough, what hurts is when they really try to fit into the conventions of country -- usually on the rockers, as on the aforementioned "Summertime" and the even-worse Big & Rich duet "We Got It Going On," which manages to cram in every sports-bar cliché into an unpalatable mess, a talent that also emphasizes Jon Bon Jovi's unfortunate tendency to rely on hackneyed imagery -- but when they're just being the smooth, efficient pop crooners they are, Lost Highway is as good as, and no different than, any Bon Jovi album since Keep the Faith. Which may not make it as adventurous as it appears, but it should still be satisfying all the same to those loyal fans.

Stephen Thomas Erlewine - All Music Guide



Bet you didn't notice, but Bon Jovi had a Number One country hit last year. The Jersey boys remade "Who Says You Can't Go Home" as a duet with the great Jennifer Nettles of Sugarland and watched it turn into a much bigger hit than the rock version. Which means it's time for a full-on Bon Jovi country album, right? Right. Lost Highway moves in on Nashville as shrewdly as "It's My Life" skimmed Stockholm seven years ago – never one to go halfway, Jon even wails about his "plastic dashboard Jesus" in the title tune. There are duets with LeAnn Rimes ("Stranger") and Big and Rich ("We Got It Going On"), but the keepers are Bon Jovi corn about cars and girls, especially "I Love This Town," a sequel to "Wild in the Streets."

Lost Highway

Hey hey
Hey hey

In my rearview mirror
My life is gettin clearer
The sunset sighs
And slowly disappears

These trinkets once were treasure
Life changes like the weather
You grow up, grow old
Or you hit the road round here

So I drive
Watchin white lines passin by
With my plastic dashboard Jesus
Waitin there to greet us

Hey hey
I've finally found my way
Say goodbye to yesterday
Hit the gas, there ain't no brakes
On this lost highway

Hell, I busted loose, I'm lettin go
Out on this open road
It's Independence Day
On this lost highway

Hey hey
Hey hey

Don't know where I'm goin
But I know where I've been
And I'm afraid of
Goin back again

So I drive
Years and miles are flyin by
And waitin there to greet us
Is my plastic dashboard Jesus

Hey hey
I've finally found my way
Say goodbye to yesterday
Hit the gas, there ain't no brakes
On this lost highway

Hell, I busted loose, I'm lettin go
Out on this open road
It's Independence Day
On this lost highway

Hey hey

*Guitar Solo*

Hey hey

Oh patron saint of lonely souls
Tell this boy which way to go
Guide the car, you got the keys
Farewell to mediocrity

Kickin off the cruise control
And turnin up the radio
Got just enough religion
And a half a tank of gas

Come on
Let's go

I've finally found my way
Say goodbye to yesterday
Hit the gas, there ain't no brakes
On this lost highway

Hell, I busted loose, I'm lettin go
When I'm out on this open road
It's Independence Day
On this lost highway

Hey hey
Hey hey
Hey hey

On this lost highway


Summertime

Feels somethin like summertime
Top down and nothin but time
Radio's on and you're by my side
It feels somethin like summertime

These days life goes like this
Wake up, check that off of some list
Gotta be a little somethin more than this
At the bottom of my coffee cup

I keep a postcard in the back of my mind
Of white sand, sunshine
And you shinin like a brand new dime
That's keepin me from givin up
Thinkin like I had enough
You make me -

Feel somethin like summertime
Top down and nothin but time
Radio's on and you're by my side
Feels somethin like summertime

Like that first slow dance and the first long kiss
There ain't nothin baby better than this
It's like a beach blanket and a bottle of wine
It feels somethin like summertime
Sum, sum, summertime

I was a warm breeze with a cool tan
Life mapped out on the back of my hand well
When God was laughin I was makin plans
But he didn't laugh when I found you
There's a heaven baby you're the proof
You make me -

Feel somethin like summertime
Top down and nothin but time
Radio's on and you're by my side
Feels somethin like summertime

Like that first slow dance and the first long kiss
There ain't nothin baby better than this
It's like a beach blanket and a bottle of wine
It feels somethin like summertime
Sum, sum, summertime

Ha
Yeah

*Guitar Solo*

Feels somethin like summertime
Top down and nothin but time
Radio's on for me and my valentine

It's like that first slow dance and that first long kiss
There ain't nothin baby better than this
It's like a beach blanket and a bottle of wine (Yeah)

Feels somethin like summertime
Top down and nothin but time
Radio's on and you're by my side
It feels somethin like summertime

Just like summertime
Sum, sum, summertime
Feels somethin like summertime


Make a Memory

Hello again, it's you and me
Kinda always like it used to be
Sippin' wine, killing time
Trying to solve life's mysteries

How's your life, it's been a while
God it's good to see you smile
I see you reaching for your keys
Looking for a reason not to leave

If you don't know if you should stay
If you don't say what's on your mind
Baby just breathe
There's nowhere else tonight we should be

You wanna make a memory

I dug up this old photograph
Look at all that hair we had.
It's bittersweet to hear you laugh
Your phone is ringing I don't wanna ask

If you go now, I'll understand
If you stay, hey, I've got a plan
We're gonna make a memory
You wanna steal a piece of time
You can sing the melody to me
And I can write a couple of lines

You wanna make a memory

If you don't know if you should stay
And you don't say what's on your mind
Baby just breathe
There's nowhere else tonight we should be
We Should be

You wanna make a memory
You wanna steal a piece of time
You can sing the melody to me
And I can write a couple of lines

You wanna make a memory (x2)


Whole Lot Of Leaving

It's pretty cold for late September
The autumn wind is creepin in
The summer sun packed up it's long gone
There's a whole lot of leavin goin on
Yeah

I'll bet it's warm in California
I think it's time to hit the road
I just might call that band of gypsies
Go searchin for our pot of gold

Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin goin on

I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine
I still hear your voice, it takes me back to that time
Where I could find a reason to be strong
Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin goin on

Close the window, draw the curtains
You ain't the only one here hurtin
No one's right, no one's wrong
Lately there's a whole lot of leavin goin on

I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine
I still hear your voice, it takes me back to that time
Where I could find a reason to be strong
Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin goin on

Hey

*Guitar Solo*

You used to live to say you love me
Now you got one foot out the door
It's then you turn around and ask me
Do we got it anymore?

I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine
I still hear your voice, it takes me back to that time
When I need a reason to be strong

I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine
Yeah, I walk the line, you'll never hear me sayin goodbye
So pretty baby, please be strong
Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin goin on

I'll come back for you baby


We Got It Going On

Is there anybody out there lookin for a party?
Shake your moneymaker baby, smoke it if you got it
We just wanna have some fun if you don't wanna - kiss this
Everybody raise your hands come on I need a witness

We got it going on
We'll be bangin and sangin just like the Rolling Stones
We're gonna shake up your souls, we've come to rattle your bones
Cause we got it going on

You got a ticket to kick it, I wanna hear you scream now
Because tonight you've got the right to let your hair down
When everybody's gettin down, we're gettin down to business
Insane, freak train, you don't wanna miss this

We'll be bangin and sangin just like the Rolling Stones
We're gonna shake up your souls, we've come to rattle your bones
Cause we got it going on

*Spoken*
And now, a public service announcement from my country cousin.
Big Kenny, talk to the people.

*Spoken*
Brothers and sisters, we're here to come together as one and love everybody.
Can I get an amen? (Amen)

*Guitar Solo*

Any Other Day

Alarm clock rings, it's 6:45
Must have hit that snooze button at least three times
I'm wishin this mornin was still last night
On any other day, I just might wanna die

Traffic's backed up twenty miles to the east
Must have hit every damn red light on the street
The weatherman says it's gonna rain for a week
Hey, what can you do

On any other day I'd be blue eyes cryin
I could tell the world, at least I'm tryin
The clouds are breakin, the sun is shinin new
For me and you

On any other day, I might just go crazy
The grace is knowin that you're gonna save me
Maybe luck and love can pull us through

On any other day, I might just stay in bed
Sit down in a sea of blankets, pull them up over my head
Catch a beer buzz in the morning just to get a little edge
Then maybe just get up in time to do it all again

Hey, I like where this is goin
Yeah, cause I know where it's been

On any other day I'd be blue eyes cryin
I could tell the world, at least I'm tryin
The clouds are breakin, the sun is shinin new
For me and you

On any other day, I might just go crazy
The grace is knowin that you're gonna save me
Maybe luck and love can pull us through

On any other day

Yeah, yeah

*Guitar Solo*

Alarm clock rings, it's 6:45
I like wakin up with you on my mind
Knowin that you're savin me one more time

On any other day I'd be blue eyes cryin
I could tell the world, at least I'm tryin
The clouds are breakin, the sun is shinin new
For me and you

On any other day, I might just go crazy
The grace is knowin that you're gonna save me
Maybe luck and love can pull us through

On any other day
Yeah, yeah

Any other day
Any other day

On any other day I'd be blue eyes cryin
I could tell the world, at least I'm tryin
The clouds are breakin, the sun is shinin new
For me and you


Seat Next To You

A long slow drive down an old dirt road,
You've got your hand out the window,
Listening to the radio,
That's where I want to be ...

On an old park bench
In the middle of December
Cold hard rain falling,
Can't find no cover
That would be alright with me ...

Hard Days, good times,
Blue skies, dark nights

Baby, I want you to take me ...
Wherever you're going to
Maybe say that you'll save me ...
A seat next to you.

In the corner booth of a downtown bar,
With your head on my shoulder
Smoking on a cheap cigar …
That would be alright with me

In the back row of
A movie or a cross-town train
I want to hear your voice
Whispering my name ...
That's who I want to be

Hard Days, good times,
Blue skies, dark nights

Baby, say that you take me ...
Wherever you're going to
Maybe say that you'll save me ...
A seat next to you.

Life is like a ferris wheel,
Spinning around
When you get to the top
It's hard to look down
Just hang on ...
We'll make it through
Save me …
A seat next to you

When you get to the gates
And the angels sing,
Go to that place
Where the church bells ring
You know I'll come running ...
Running to find you ...

Baby, say that you'll take me ...
Wherever you're going to
Baby I want you to save me ...
A seat next to you


Everybody's Broken

Welcome to the party,
Come on in and disappear,
You're feeling like stranger,
But all your friends are here,
Little lies and cracks,
Around your eyes and mouth,
Something's trying to get in,
Something's trying to get out,

It's ok, to be a little broken,
Everybody's broken, in this life,
It's ok, to feel a little broken,
Everybody's broken, your alright,
It's just life,

Step into the deep end,
Make yourself at home,
When you wonder why your breathing,
Know your not alone,
Its so hard to believe,
Its easier to doubt,
You're trying to hold in,
But your dying to scream out,

It's ok to be a little broken,
Everybody's broken,
In this life,
It's ok to feel a little broken,
Everybody's broken, your alright,
It's alright, its just life

Solo

Take a look around,
Tell me what you see,
Is who you think you are,
Who you want to be,

It's ok, to be a little broken,
Everybody's broken, in this life,
It's ok, to feel a little broken,
Everybody's broken, your alright,
Just keep on going,
Eyes wide open,
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Yeah


Till We Ain't Strangers Anymore

It might be hard to be lovers
But it's harder to be friends
Baby, pull down the covers
It's time you let me in

Maybe light a couple candles
I'll just go ahead and lock the door
If you'll just talk to me baby
Till we ain't strangers anymore

Lay your head on my pillow
I'll sit beside you on the bed
Don't you think it's time we say
Some things we haven't said

It ain't too late to get back to that place
Back to the way we thought it was before
Why don't you look at me, yeah
Till we ain't strangers anymore

Sometimes it's hard to love me
Sometimes it's hard to love you too
I know it's hard believin
That love can pull us through

It would be so easy
To live your life
With one foot out the door
Just hold me baby
Till we ain't strangers anymore

*Guitar Solo*

It's hard to find forgiveness
When we just turn out the lights
It's hard to say you're sorry
When we can't tell wrong from right

It would be so easy
To spend your whole damn life
Just keepin score

So let's get down to it baby
There ain't no need to lie
Tell me who you think you see
When you look into my eyes

Lets put our two hearts back together
And we'll leave the broken pieces on the floor
Make love with me baby
Till we ain't strangers anymore

We're not strangers anymore
We're not strangers
We're not strangers anymore


The Last Night

These days, its hard to have a heart,
It doesn't matter where you come from, or who you think you are,
These days, it's hard just fitting in,
Why does someone have to lose, for someone else to win,
We're all looking for forgiveness, and someone we can trust,
You can't wrap your arms around the world,
It all comes down to us,

This is the last night,
You'll have to be alone,
I'll be standing right beside you,
If you can't make it on your own,
So walk with me, please,
Help me to be strong,
I'll be the shoulder you can lean on,
When everybody's gone,
This is the last night,
You'll have to be alone,

I know, you, heard it all before,
There's nothing worse than living less,
When you yearn for something more,
Makes no sense, it's hard to understand,
When there's something that should fill you up,
Keeps slipping through your hands.

This is the last night,
You'll have to be alone,
I'll be standing right beside you,
If you can't make it on your own,
So walk with me, please,
Help me to be strong,
I'll be the shoulder you can lean on,
When everybody's gone,
This is the last night,
You'll have to be alone.

We're all looking for answers,
We're all down here on our knees,
All anybody really wants, is something to believe,
Enough is enough, i can't take any more,
But I'm standing on your front porch,
Kicking down your door,
This is the last night,
This is the last night,
You'll have to be alone,
I'll be standing right beside you,
If you cant make it on your own,
So walk with me please,
Help me to be strong,
I'll be the shoulder you can lean on,
That place where you belong,
This is the last night,
You'll have to be alone,
This it's the last night,
This is the last night,
This it's the last night,
You'll have to be alone.


One Step Closer

I've seen the heart of darkness,
Let's just say, I crossed over that line,
Held hands with the hopeless,
In too deep, on that ride, went around one more time,
When you're standing on the edge,
You don't look down,
Till you're ready and willing to fly,

Now I'm, one step closer,
With my arms open wide,
Yeah, I'm one step closer,
And I'm willing to try this time,

I hitched a ride with forgiveness,
In that river of emotion,
I went down at third time,
I spend the night with the living,
Took a chance, looked inside,
Didn't know who I'd find,
Standing on the corner of the long goodbye,
All alone scared, i made up my mind,

I'm, one step closer,
With my arms open wide,
Yeah, I'm one step closer,
And I'm willing to try,

I'm sick of giving up,
There's a little luck,
I'm gonna get out of here,

SOLO

When you're standing on the edge,
Don't look down,
Til you're ready and willing to fly,

I'm, one step closer,
With my arms open wide,
Yeah, I'm one step closer,
And I'm willing to try, yeah,
I'm, one step closer,
Yeah, I'm, one step closer


I Love This Town

I always knew that I liked this place
You don't have to look too far to find a friendly face
I feel alive when I'm walking on the street
I feel the heart of the city pounding underneath my feet

CHORUS:
Yeah, let the world keep spinning round and round
This is where it all goes down down down
That's why I love this town
That's why I keep coming around
Say hey (say hey) say yeah (say yeah)
You make me feel at home somehow right now
That's why I love this town

I got some good friends here
I might have broken a heart or two
It's getting loud over there
Boys must have had a few
And there's a cop on the corner
He knows everybody's names
And a kid with a dream singing for some spare loose change

Chorus

They're shouting from the rooftops
Dancing on the bars
Hangin' out the window
Driving in their baby's car
You want it, you got it
You're ready, I'm on it
Come on now
Here we go again
That's why I love this town
That's why I love this town
No matter where you are from
Tonight you're from right here
This is where it all goes down, down down
That's why I love this town
Say hey, say hey say yeah say yeah
I love this town
