STUBBORN BON JOVI CREDITS LONGEVITY TO IGNORING TRENDS

Rocker JON BON JOVI credits his reluctance to change on getting his band back to the top of the U.S. album charts.

The Livin' On A Prayer singer, who is celebrating his first number one album for 19 years with Bon Jovi's Lost Highway, prides himself on having the same bandmates and sound he did when he first began his rock career.

He tells Parade magazine, "I like progress but I hate change. And I think that counts for something in this day and age.

"I think it also has helped my career, because I didn't do grunge when grunge got popular; I didn't get a rapper when rap became popular; I didn't try to dance like a boy band when that got popular.

"You just stay the course, and do what it is that you do, and grow while you're doing it. Eventually it will either come full circle, or at least you'll go to bed at night happy."
