Seriously?
I love that song - no matter how bad my mood, that one always gets me back in a good mood & singing along.
My mum hates Bon Jovi and has done so since the moment I liked them (just like everything else in my life) but this song...well when she heard it something made her ask me for the CD. When I asked why (thinking she's going to snap yet another of my CDs) she told me she wanted to take the CD to school & play "Captain Crash" for her kids at school (Mum is a primary school teacher).
I refused, she got very peeved.
I threw the lyrics at her and told her: "do you REALLY want to take this song to play for your school kids considering the majority of them go home and watch their parents get stoned every night? Just look at this line"
I pointed to:
They're drunk on love as you can get
Getting high on lust and cigarettes
Living life with no regrets
At least they're gonna try to fly
...after reading the lyrics my mum very quickly changed her mind on taking the CD to school. Afterall, all of her students would know EXACTLY what this line would mean and probably take it as encouragement...and being her school has enough problems with drugs and students with agressive pasts....not the very best idea on the planet!
....now I wonder what my mother would think if she knew I myself had gotten high once while listening to this song...the one and only time I have ever been stoned and it was too that song! LOL
