You know you want to sing along – WHHOAAAA!! We’re halfway there!!!! – this fist pumping hair rock tune was exploding from speakers and making people smile over thirty years. In a time of economic strife the story of hard on their luck Tommy and Gina is as relevant today as it was back then. Despite their hardships, the two are leaning on what they have rather than what they don’t, and finding a way to be closer together during the tough times. Usually songs with this theme are so serious, but Bon Jovi keeps it light with heavy rock and roll, and that’s worth its weight in hairspray.
