I voted for Just Older, I really like the idea "Not old, just older..." Like my friend once said, the weather in Finland is not cold, just colder And look at my signature...

Something to Believe In has some of the most profound lyrics I've ever heard. Jon really makes you think with that song. It's got a far deeper meaning than what's on the surface and can be interpreted two entirely different ways. Jon always said it was a positive song and it took me a while to understand it because I was hearing it the other way. I am mightily impressed with those lyrics. Jon could get his own chapter in a philosophy book!

Bed of Roses, Dry County, and Santa Fe are also in that category of lyrics that made me go "wow!"

I wasn't sure if I should vote for Something to believe in or KTF....both are amazing songs. Something to believe in has the best lyrics for me in this list.

I voted for Something To Believe In as it's definitely one of my fave Bon Jovi songs both lyrically and musically. However, since Blaze Of Glory was on the list, The Answer should have been considered as well. These are the greatest lyrics ever written (IMHO).

yep Christine and Simone,

I totally agree with you that The Answer is missing!!!!!

To me there is no other song forever and ever with such thoughful lyrics, it`s a masterpiece!!!!!

I did not vote because I can`t vote for another one............
