Signature song indeed. Hard to imagine not responding 'Living on a Prayer' if asked to identify the track most synonymous with the band Bon Jovi. Great backstory, Janda.
Great episode, thank you again. Amazing Bon Jovi thought it was a throw away. Just goes to show you, even the guy who wrote the words & played the music, doesn’t have a clue if the song will be a hit.
Janda, you asked if there were any other couple songs and I can't think of any. But, sure would like to hear about the Lou Reed song Walk on Wild Side and his real life characters from the song. It's a little " Bowie " and how did that song get radio play back in those days. Thanks again, Kat
Great narrative on this one! So many changes in music during that time, this song brought the sound needed to keep Rock'n'roll. The Tommy and Gina story was /is legendary. Thanks for the background and Thanks for another great one!

Thanks for watching! In this case, good thing he was swayed by those who heard it as a hit!
Such a cool back story and fun facts! Thanks for another great peek behind the song, Janda!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
Great song from a great album but my favorite track was 'Wanted, Dead or Alive'.
I hear ya!
