Bon Jovi saluted Ukraine this week after footage of Ukrainian civilians preparing for war to the tune of "It's My Life" went viral on social media.
In the clip — which has amassed more than 2 million views on Twitter alone — dozens of community members in Odesa, Ukraine, rock out to the Bon Jovi anthem while filling sandbags on a beach and loading them into an orange truck. One person can even be seeing playing the drums on a makeshift stage while Jon Bon Jovi's gruff voice blasts from the speakers.
After Olexander Scherba, Ukraine's ambassador to Austria, tagged Bon Jovi in a video of the people of Odessa gathering "fortifications & getting ready to fight," the rock band responded Tuesday with a poignant lyric from the 2000 hit.
