2020: The New Album

Do What You Can is the best thing Jon's done in years and something I really needed to hear this week.

I hope it ends up being a finished song and released in some fashion.

Miles better than both Unbroken and Limitless.

Yeah, at least it's better than Unbroken...
the melody is okay, I see his voice been the problem
however, I think it's a nice gesture
and I guess we will have more fan videos to hear >_<

Maybe, but he really makes sure there's a camera around whenever he's got something to promote though. And as for Reddit's stance on this; I very much doubt there's anyone over there who is aware Jon's able to do all these charitable things because he ****s over the fans by charging 800 dollars for a front row ticket in America. It's easy to donate to charity and to charitable things when others are paying for it.

I'm happy for you at least someone gets something out of this but how is this the best thing he's done in years? It's as if he's tried to make the headlines of a bunch of newspaper articles rhyme and then adds a bunch of rehashed lyrics and stuff he uses in pretty much every sentence. Bend don't break, gotta make it through, do what you do, a prayer... Just add a verse of him singing we'll get through the night, it'll be alright, just keep on living your life and we'll get through the fight and you've got your typical Bon Jovi lyric there. It's as if Jon deliberately tries to sink to deeper lows with every subsequent new thing he posts.

Salaam Aleikum,

This ladies (Maureen Freney Wilkins)seems to the favourite. Over 460 likes. I think shes done really well. Hopefully jon sees it.

So I hug my baby girls and try not to show my fear.
They miss their friends and teachers that they hold so dear.

The days all run together and the nights seem oh so long.
We try to focus on the good things and not what’s going wrong.

I prayer for the nurses, doctors and all on the front line
And look to the future when life is back to being fine.

We are being called on to slow down this human race.
For now we have to put others safety in first place.

Ah shut up ya tit. No need for over analysing. If this helps people get through these bad times why dissect, judge and critique words that help people

Or maybe he’s using his profile to help people get over anxieties in these hard times

Do What You Can - YouTube

It's not the best song ever, but it sounds sincere. I think that's enough. At least he is doing something.

Yep...he’s doing what he can lol

His low vocals are nice to listen to, the ‘high’ ones are awful and the lyrics...God help us.

Please bring band Stand Up Guy Jon: nice acoustic licks and chords and half decent lyrics.

This is by no means an attempt to slam the person who wrote that stuff posted above but mostly an example of your typical doggerel. Line - fine, race - place, long - wrong. When looking at what people have posted on Facebook and youTube it's no wonder they think Jon Bon Jovi is an insanely talented songwriter. The very idea that people consider lyrics like these "well done" is why Jon Bon Jovi gets away with the lyrics he's written the last 15 years.

Yes but its wrote by an member of the public who thought them up in 5 mins which is why it isn't too bad for a non songwriter.
But somehow she has probably wrote better lyrics than the last few Jovi albums
