The song's message is: Life isn't always easy as you get older and the responsibilities add up. So, enjoy the good times of youth while you can.

@custardflan 2 года назад

Alternatively, I think it also means you live a long time with the decisions you make when you are young.

John's style of singing or genre is called heartland rock as he sang a lot about blue-collar, farmers & truckers themes. He has had so many hits especially in the 80's such as "Hurts So Good", "Jack & Diane", "Crumblin' Down", "Pink Houses", "Lonely Ol' Night", "Small Town", "R.O.C.K. In The U.S.A.", "Paper &n Fire", "Cherry Bomb" etc.

@ronkrupovich7152 2 года назад

@thumplife792 2 года назад

To me this song is insanely sad. Depresses me every time I hear it. I grew up in the same state, not far from where John Mellencamp did. The areas he sings about in a lot of his songs are exactly like here. "Life goes on long after the thrill of living is gone" is one of the saddest lines ever. Probably because it's so true. I'm 42 and all of the magic is gone. There's not really any new experiences, nothing to look forward to except getting older. My Diane passed of cancer years ago. Those days were electrifying and everything was new. Now, not so much.

Back in the 1980s one of the daytime soap operas(The Young and The Restless) had two characters also named Jack and Diane. The couple were having a tumultuous on again off again affair. The producers heard about this song and actually got the rights to play it during one of their scenes.

@rubyleuty9417 2 года назад

I love Little Pink Houses. John was the singer song writer for growing up in the Bible Belt. He lives in Hilton Head, SC. His daughter was on the Bravo reality show, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She wanted to go to CA and be an actress. He told her he would pay her way through college but if she went to CA she would do it on her own. She went to CA. She married a guy who installs sophisticated alarm systems for big corporations. They do very well. She was on the housewives show for 3 or 4 seasons but was fired. She didn’t bring anything to the show.

Little Pink Houses and Small Town are good ones from him as well. I see someone made a list below and ROCK in the USA and Hurts So Go are good ones too. His songs are just a good feeling.

Here's a lil ditty....in November 1987 I saw John Cougar Mellencamp at The Spectrum in Philly, Lonesome Jubilee Tour...backstage passes...went to the concert with a leg cast from breaking my ankle playing hoops a week prior, anyway, in the "Green Room" after the show there was no place to sit except one long table, my ankle was killing me so I sat at the end of the table not knowing it was for the band. Long story short John entered with the band, he approached me and asked what happened, I explained, he left momentarily and came back with a Heineken for me and a Sharpie to sign the cast. The entire band signed it....I still have the cast as I made a "planter" out of it.

@jerrybourland3346 Год назад

I was born in 1954. This song takes me back to my teens in "small town Oklahoma" where we would "cruise main" sit out by the drive in restaurants and just laugh and talk, maybe holding your squeeze! We could cruise all night, well until closing time plus a little, on a couple bucks woth of gas! Good times!

@teensymom1420 2 года назад

John was born and still lives in southern Indiana. Being a proud Hoosier myself, I can safely say he is our native son. I have seen him live many, many times, even when no one really knew he was. I hope you get more into his songs. Cherry Bomb, ROCK in the USA, Again Tonight are great ones just to name a few. He hit the big time when he released Hurt So Good, Jack and Diane on his album American Fool. I really love his album before that Nothing Matters and What If It Did. Great album title and every song was great. Jack and Diane is just about living life to the fullest while you are young.

Along with Bob Seeger, Mellencaamp is the voice of the American Midwest, extolling the simple pleasure and lamenting the sadness of loss within the Amarican dream. No shades of grey, just black and white in the Great American Middle.

Its the small town theater....when your a kid the thrill of experiencing things and learning that there are consenquences down the road to actions we take that cause people to have to grow up and you lose the innocence of youth in the process. It is the point where we all have to grow up and become resposible adults and not quite as free to take risks without consequences as we get older. :)

@chadro_g1145 2 года назад

If I remember right, the claps where not meant to stay in the song. It was being used as an early form of a click track to help him keep time. Once the manager, or producer, I forget which one, heard the difference they convinced him to keep it in. I cant imagine the song with out it.

@gabrielgibson9081 2 года назад

This is a song that Mellencamp was prepared to drop. Wasn't going to record it or put it on an album. He had the lyrics but couldn't come up with the music, everything came up empty. He had a connection with Mick Ronson the solo artist that was David Bowie's and Ian Hunter's guitarist. He shared it with Ronson and he did the musical arrangement that sealed the deal and made the album cut. It was Mellencamp's biggest hit. You should check out some Mick Ronson.

It’s about the overwhelming idealistic notions we form as teens, as well as, how far removed they are from the truly important things in the life (those which exist beyond the juvenile years). Diana was young and wise in her response to Jack’s statement, “Hey Diane. Let’s run off to the city.” She replied, “Baby, we ain’t missing nothing”. The obvious interpretation: everything they need was there in the moment, and the town in which they lived. It took me, and most adults I know, a couple decades to pick that up sincerely 🤣
