its my life greatest....

"I think the best way to judge is by what non-Jovi fans know. EVERYBODY has heard Prayer and knows it's Bon Jovi. I don't think there's any other song of their's you could say that for."

You must be joking me here, to be perfectly honest i'd say it's my life is just as recongnizeable as LOAP, whenever it gets played in clubs and pubs over here the whole place goes nuts. The only reason someone would say LOAP is the only song anyone knows it becuase they're stuck in 1986.
Always is a huge song as well, so is Bad Name, Wanted, and Bed Of Roses. You could also argue case for Keep The Faith as well.
Man some people are just plain ignorant

Dude - I'm not making those numbers up. I posted that question on a non-Jovi site, and those are the responses I've gotten. The question isn't what's more recognizable - It was what song do you think of when you think of Bon Jovi?

20 to 2, Prayer vs. It's My Life.

I guess those people are all ignorant, and you are the one they should all be listening to.

Iml Or Prayer Or Always Lol Which One
________

I think that everybody knows that Its My Life is Jovi song... And i think that they are all into it... But, maybe they first think of Livin On A Prayer because its better song...

Look Europe (Croatia):

Livin On A Prayer 3
Keep The Faith 2
Wanted Dead Or Alive
Always
Blaze Of Glory
In And Out Of Love
Runaway

(hell, no Its My Life)

geuss it depens on wich generation the one asked is from. prayer - 80's, always - 90's, IML 00's

You go to any disco/club and every time if Prayer comes on they mute the sound after We're halfway there and the whole place shouts/sings Woooah livin' on a prayer. It's the only song I ever hear where the dj does that and that's because nearly everyone in the world (Slight exaggeration I know) know's that song and will sing along to it. It is not just an all time classic Jovi song but an all time classic song full stop. It's My Life was a big hit for them and may possibly have sold more but it doesn't hold the same position in the public consciousness. My favourite song is Wanted but if we're talking about the song that they're best known for there is no contest.

Look Europe (Croatia)#2:

Livin On A Prayer 4
Keep The Faith 2
Wanted Dead Or Alive 2
Always 2
Runaway 2
Blaze Of Glory
In And Out Of Love
These Open Arms

It's My Life doesn't hold a candle to Living on A Prayer..... Prayer is a million times better!! In my opinion.....

I can never be sick of hearing Prayer

But while I know they won't do this I would not be the slightest bit sad if It's My Life was never in the setlist at a show again....

I liked the song when it first came out but aftert hey played it to death on every appearance, every tv show... enough I am just so sick of it!!
