Bon Jovi created a new generation of fans in 2000 with their smash single “It’s My Life,” the rock band’s highest-charting song since their iconic run of hits in the 1980s and ’90s. Now, another two decades later, “It’s My Life” itself is getting a new life of its own in the form of “Now or Never,” a remix of the Bon Jovi smash led by Miami-bred hitmaker Pitbull.
First teased when Pitbull brought Jon Bon Jovi out at a concert in September, “Now or Never” is an upbeat, dance-floor-ready reimagining of the Bon Jovi hit that makes a natural fit in Pitbull’s party-centric discography. But beyond having fun, Pitbull takes a moment to reflect on how far he’s come—and how important it is to stand up tall regardless of what life may throw your way.
“The world’s always comin’ to an end / Don’t let it scare you out of livin’ / Look at me, mama, against all odds, your little baby boy did it,” he raps on the track. “Every day I say thank you / Every day I give thanks, every day’s Thanksgiving.”
