    What is the big deal about his hair? Who cares? The man is 53 years old for goodness sake. Too many people focus on physical image. He is extremely talented and I believe he has a big heart. That is what matters.

    This isn't how your story ends, my friends,
    It's just a fork along the road
    Don't say your prayers, save your amens,
    You've come this far but you're still far from home
    Don't say goodbye, just say farewell
    Write every line you live to tell
    Hold your head like Harry, give 'em hell
    As the night ignites the day
    Make some memories along the way
    Write your song, sing along, love your life
    Learn to laugh, dare to dance, touch the sky
    Take pictures each step of the way
    Make this the best of the rest of your days
    Start your revolution and I'll see you at the reunion
    Some friends will go and some will stay,
    Okay, some last a chapter, some a page
    For some love comes disguised as lust
    But you'll find love when you find trust one day
    Do better than our parents did
    In perfect wealth and wife and kids
    Go draw your course then turn it upside down
    Go live your life, eyes open wide
    Who's to say what's wrong or right
    Right?
    Write your song, sing along, love your life
    Learn to laugh, dare to dance, touch the sky
    Take pictures each step of the way
    Make this the best of the rest of your days
    Start your own revolution
    And I'll see you at the reunion
    As the night ignites the day
    Make some memories along the way
    Write your song, sing along, love your life yeah
    Learn to laugh, dare to dance, touch the sky
    Take pictures each step of the way
    Make this the best of the rest of your days
    I sing go start your revolution and I'll see you at the reunion
    I'll see you at the reunion
    Oh I'll see you at the reunion
    This isn't how your story ends, my friends,
    It's just a fork along the road

    Somehow this song reminds me of his solo album destination anywhere. His hair and his age are growing old, but his voice is still the same. Feels like i'm young again hearing this song.

    Quien lo viera a este rokero tremendo en el escenario cuando provocaba quererlo con su voz sus bailes y fotos tan sexi y actuaciones en sus películas , al paso del tiempo deja su gran legado en todos los aspectos como el mejor rokero un gran caballero lleno de humildad y cariño hacia mucha gente con diferentes necesidades lo amare por toda la vida ❤

    he looks sooo old with his gray hair, he need dye his hair as always, retrieve Richie back and go back to studio and after that go back to the road!

    • @irenebonjovi
      @irenebonjovi 9 лет назад +4

      FLAME-XIII He looks gorgeous!!! Where have you been? Gray is in! Everyone is dying their hair gray. So back off, he is a great man, with a great heart, and gorgeous to top it off. His voice is amazing and he is just beautiful inside and out. He is a perfect 10. You need to dye your hair so that you look fake. At least he is real, and it looks great to top it off. P.S. We don't want Richie back. He is an asshole. He pulled an asshole move and he will always be known for that. He has talent but who cares now. He's a jerk and he looks horrible. You can go become his fan now, we won't miss ya! Bye Bye!

    • @irenebonjovi
      @irenebonjovi 9 лет назад +3

      ***** Finally, someone with common sense!! I mean, what do they expect? Yea, so he doesn't dye his hair, maybe he will again when they go on tour, who gives a shit. Thing is, he is really am amazing human being who is a rock star and a humanitarian to boot, with a BIG PLUS that he is extremely good looking at that. Authentic Gorgeous is always better than fake gorgeous. You just can't beat that. On another note, did Bono dye his hair red? I saw that and I didn't like it but he is still a great rock star and person also.

      @irenebonjovi 9 лет назад +1

      keirthms LMFAO You are so wrong ... He is not bald, yes his hair is thinning on the side but if you look he has a full head of hair, nice and thick and strong, so don't comment on things you know nothing about. My cousin cut his hair recently in Soho so get your facts straight before you comment.
