| Jennifer Nettles con Jon Bon Jovi |
La canzone che vi propongo è del 2005 ed è tratta dall'album Have a nice day.
Nel corso del 2006 Jon si "autocoverizza" e ne propone una versione country rock, duettando con la deliziosa cantanate Jennifer Nettles.
Il video della "solo version" di Jon, mi piace da matti: le peripezie del cane/uomo che cerca di tornare a casa (anche lui per un attimo si trova ad un concerto di Bon Jovi!!!) fanno riflettere. Guardate:
Il duetto con Jennifer Nettles rende la canzone una ottima country rock song:
Importante ricordare che gli appartamenti creati per girare il video, sono stati poi donati tramite una associazione umanitaria ad alcune famiglie che finalmente hanno avuto un posto da chiamare CASA.
Bravo Jon!!!
Curioso come questa versione sia stata destinata ai circuiti country statunitensi: radio, TV ecc.
Infatti dello stesso video esiste una versione senza Jennifer, girata contemporaneamente.
Eccolo:
Quale preferire? Personalmente prediligo la versione con Jennifer Nettles che con la sua voce ben affianca Bon Jovi: mi sa però che Udine però mi dovrò accontentare solo di Jon.
Vabbè, mi rifaccio con il video!

Ed ecco per integrare l'articolo, l'esecuzione del brano che ho ripreso al concerto di Udine del 17 luglio scorso:
"Who Says You Can't Go Home"
I spent 20 years trying to get out of this place
I was looking for something I couldn't replace
I was running away from the only thing I've ever known
Like a blind dog without a bone
I was a gypsy lost in the twilight zone
I hijacked a rainbow and crashed into a pot of gold
I been there, done thatand I ain't lookin' back on the seeds I've sown,
Saving dimes, spending too much time on the telephone
Who says you can't go home
[Chorus]
Who says you can't go home
There's only one place they call me one of their own
Just a hometown boy, born a rolling stone, who says you can't go home
Who says you can't go back, been all around the world and as a matter of fact
There's only one place left I want to go, who says you can't go home
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, its alright
I went as far as I could, I tried to find a new face
There isn't one of these lines that I would erase
I lived a million miles of memories on that road
With every step I take I know that I'm not alone
You take the home from the boy, but not the boy from his home
These are my streets, the only life I've ever known,
who says you can't go home
[Chorus]
I been there, done thatand I ain't looking that
It's been a long long road
Feels like I never left, that's how the story goes
It doesn't matter where you are, it doesn't matter where you go
If it's a million miles aways or just a mile up the road
Take it in, take it with you when you go,
who says you can't go home
[Chorus]
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, its alright
Who says you can't go home [x2]
