BON JOVI 《Just Older》歌詞密碼
2000年,Bon Jovi四子久休5年後首張大碟《Crush》內有一首非主打歌曲《Just Older》十分值得留意,這首歌以爛牛仔褲torn blue jeans)比喻了他們的歌唱事業。

故事由Jon Bon Jovi 17歲時在表哥Tony Bongiovi的錄音室掃地開始說起,他83年組成了Bon JoviBon Jovi梳著80年代Hair Metal(或Glam metal)的蓬鬆獅子頭髮型走遍世界各地演唱,歌詞「I've cut my hair, I've kept my faith」提到1992年《Keep The Faith》(堅守信念)時期因為Hair Metal末落而把留了超過十年的長髮剪掉,以嶄新形像示人。1995年經歷了由五人變成四人的衝擊,「We got secrets that we'll take to the grave」(我們會把秘密帶進墳墓中)當然就是暗示低音結他手Alec John Such離隊的原因對外間來說將會永遠是一個謎。直到21世紀,當年大部份的Hair Metal樂隊已經被時代淘汰,但Bon Jovi隨着時代而進化,成功過度到2000年。

Just Older》的歌詞中以「It's not old, just older」(它一點也不舊,只是舊了些少)指出Jon Bon Jovi 仍然最喜歡自己穿著了多年的爛牛仔褲,這其實是一種暗喻,Bon Jovi當時已經成立了17年,可能會被視為「老餅」,他們想表達的是如今只是稍稍長大了,信念仍然沒變,歌詞暗暗帶出了「Bon Jovi's not old, just older」(Bon Jovi一點也不老的,只是老了些少)的訊息,並希望永遠成為歌迷心目中的「a favorite pair of torn blue jeans」(一條心愛的爛牛仔褲)。

Bon Jovi - Just Older (2000)
Writers: Bon Jovi, Falcon

Hey, man, it's been a while
Do you remember me?
When I hit the streets I was 17
A little wild, a little green
I've been up and down and in between
After all these years and miles of memories
I'm still chasing dreams
But I ain't looking over my shoulder

Chorus:
I like the bed I'm sleeping in
It's just like me, it's broken in
It's not old - just older
Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans
This skin I'm in it's alright with me
It's not old - just older

It's good to see your face
You ain't no worse for wear
Breathing that California air
When we took on the world
When we were young and brave
We got secrets that we'll take to the grave
And we're standing here shoulder to shoulder

Chorus × 1

I'm not old enough to sing the blues
But I wore the holes in the soles of these shoes
You can roll the dice 'til they call your bluff
But you can't win until you're not afraid to lose

[Solo]

Well, I look in the mirror
I don't hate what I see
There's a few more lines staring back at me
Now the nights has grown a little colder
Hey man, I gotta run
Now you take care
If you see coach T. Tell him I've cut my hair
I've kept my faith
I still belive I'm just...
Ha

Chorus × 1

It's not old - just!
