This is real 80s music and yes, I remember the big hair! I loved this song when it came out in 1986 - great tune and fab to sing along to and of course to dance to! Bon Jovi had some really good songs which were very popular. I remember seeing a concert he did a few years on TV and it was brilliant, I downloaded one of the songs, Because We Can from there and I listen to it a lot. Thanks so much for reaction, guys, can see you really enjoyed this one! Forgot to say before, that I love your new intro music - really suits the channel - brilliant!
1. In the 80's there were "hair bands" and then there was Bon Jovi. Miles above the rest. 2. The guitar player, Richie Sambora's vocals rival those of Jon Bon Jovi. 3. The reason I think they're so good is, as you noted, their drive - which simply and fundamentally is rock 'n roll.
In this song Richie Sambora uses the talkbox, an instrument used a lot by Peter Frampton, where he makes different sounds with his voice and characterizes both this song
This was the first album my daughter asked for when she was 5. That was fine with me, because Jon Bon Jovi is a good role model. He's been married to his high school sweetheart. for 31 years. Wanted Dead or Alive was my favorite, but all of the little girls in the neighborhood used to sing You Give Love a Bad Name at the top of their lungs in the back yard all of the time. We called them the Bon Jovi pre-pubescent memorial choir. The more Bon Jovi the better. It's great to see you so enthusiastic about them.
What’s not to love! My New Jersey boys! He is one of the nicest and most charitable people ever! Driving with Bob Jovi blasting.........there’s nothing better! Thanks Bros. Love ya. 💕
What makes Jon Bon Jovi really interesting to me is that he has taken voice lessons. He has learned to "scream" without hurting his vocal cords and can, therefore, reproduce the sound night after night on tour. Most rock singers strain and over tax their voice so that they're hoarse or have to rest their voice all day so they can sing at night. I think it's smart to study an instrument you play (and singers "play" their voice). If a trumpeter studies jazz and classical trumpet their playing can only get better no matter what style they choose to perform. So a JBJ studying classical voice techniques coukd only improve his skills as a rock singer.
I really enjoy watching your enthusiasm listening to all this great music I grew up with. I never realized how truly great all this music was until I until now.
Yes, he flew out over the audience. I saw them on this tour for Slippery When Wet. But to make it even better, the opening band was one of my favorite blues/rock band Cinderella, supporting their just released first album Night Songs. These two bands with timeless albums at once 😁😁 Pretty cool for me as a middle school kid at the time 🤘😎🤘
Great reaction. I love how hyped you're getting over the songs I rocked out to when I was younger. I still rock out to them today. Bon Jovi was part of what was called hair metal in the 80s. Yes I was jealous of the hair. Watch skid row 18 and life Really jealous of Sebastian Bach's hair. Have you done any Queensryche? Try silent lucidity, eyes of the stranger, best I can, jet city woman, empire
I’m so happy you guys are getting into Bon Jovi! They have talent and charisma and know how to rock! And yes, they have a way of making us feel like we’re at the concert.
Bon Jovi is good but did I mention that John Mellancamp is considered the most important Roots Rocker of a generation. Not the most influential but the most important. He sang about what it was like living in the USA. He sang about all of us. You won't be disappointed.
YES!!! No one has reacted to his music!!!! John Mellencamp is freaking legendary!!!!!!! PLEASE check out : "Jack and Diane" and "Pink Houses" or "Hurts So Good".... You're gonna love this bros!!!!
"You Give Love A Bad Name", "Bad Medicine" are 2 more of their huge hits.... and for a different side of Bon Jovi try, "It's My Life". Side Note: Jon Bon Jovi (lead singer) is quite a philanthropist.... Since the early '90's he's been involved with MANY charitable organizations such as: Habitat For Humanity, Covenant House, Red Cross, the Special Olympics etc., He even has his own charitable foundation, The JBJ Soul Foundation. Which combats issues that force families into economic despair and this also includes a few JBJ Soul Kitchens where people can do work there in exchange for meals (In a nutshell).... Just a brief synopsis of what a great guy he is, and the whole band as well. Keep going with Bon Jovi!!
✌️😎 So thrilled you kids are enjoying our music! When we were teens back then, when these bands like Bon Jovi, Prince, Queen, Billy Idol, Bowie, etc., many just starting out fresh and hot, we were just teenagers with nothing to do. So we went to see bands like this live in concert every weekend. And yes, with tens of thousands in attendance, these guys on stage made us all feel like they were throwing a party just for us. Whether you were on the front row or the back row, they could make you feel like you were the most exciting person in the crowd. And yes, I was at this concert. It was crazy! These memories are etched in my heart forever as I try to convince my children that I was once cool. (Giggles) Best of luck, guys. I just subbed to your channel because I can't wait to see more of your reactions! ❣️
I grew up listening to this as a child of the 80s. I'm not surprised you love it. There are certain songs that transcend cultural boundaries. It's just universally attractive to the ears, no matter what genre you typically would like otherwise. :) I was always a positive, fun-loving kid, so this definitely fit right in with me when growing up. :)
Bon Jovi is an awesome band Fun fact Jon's father was a former barber for the Marines and he is the one that actually done Jon's hair. I do hope you react to more of their music ❤️
Bon Jovi band is and was great. Another member of the same band was Richie Sambora. He was lead guitar and vocalist. He did soloist work and you should see what he did as well. This band was great because of all or each of the band members. :)
PLEASE do I’ll Be There For You! It’s another one that highlights the incredible talents of Richie Sambora (as well as Jon Bon Jovi of course). Richie is lead guitar, the high harmonies, and the cool oo-wa-oo-wa-oo part at the beginning.
My most treasured teenage album! There is an incredible live performances of this song in Zürich Switzerland, you can feel that talkbox talking to you 😊
Man their music is Amazing Please listen to Runaway (breakout song, debut) Bad Medicine You Give Love a Bad Name I’ll Be There for you It’s my life Have a Nice Day Never Say Good Bye Lay Your Hands of Me (Live in London) Who Says you Can’t Go Home Shot Through the Heart If they tour again and you are able to go. GO!!! I’ve seen them 5 times in concert and each one was SPECTACULAR
Hey guy just watched your reactions to Bon Jovi livin on a prayer. I’m a huge Bon Jovi fan, love and got all there albums, seen then live quite a few times as well. Absolutely amazing seeing them live, they really do know how to put on a show and I think Jon Bonjovi is the best front man alive today, you should definitely check out and react to there live performances as well. I recommend you check then out live at Wembley 1995, Zurich in 2000 and live in Moscow 1989, Madison Square Gardens, 2008, Munich 2011, Cleveland 2013 and Rocking in Rio 2017. Also check the live rehearsal of there latest album called 2020. The performance is called, on a night like this. There is more but too much to write all at once. Hope you guys enjoy and do more reactions to Bon Jovi. Cheers and all the best, Alex
Great reaction, as always! And YES, I was always jealous of his hair😂 I pictured him just wash & go and I'd spend an hour to get that kind of height!! I moved to NJ when he blew up, so it was kind of a nightmare, the overplay on radio, but he was great & you guys made me appreciate it again, thanks!♥️
There were some Great "stadium" rock bands and there were some Great "Rock Anthems" in the late 80's...Bon Jovi,Whitesnake,Def Leppard,Kiss,Guns n Roses,Aerosmith,Poison...GREAT TIMES,GREAT MUSIC,GREAT REACTIONS 👍👍👍
❤👍🏽❤👍🏽 Love this group and Slippery When Wet is an awesome album!! Seen these guys multiple times live. Jon flies over audience, will suddenly appear in the audience, and walks around the audience!! AWESOME shows, I hope they get their shit together so I can see them again!! 😯😂 Jon's son Jesse has a YT channel often featuring Jon, check it out if you can!! 👍🏽 Another Great reaction, you 2 really do ROCK!! ❤❤
Gormajoba, Brothers, from twins from Ukraine. Thank u for your sincere reaction. The best to you and your Nation! P.S. I love Bon Jovi - my older sister got us hooked on their music. :D
They are the best band ever serioustly incredible. I'm a huge fan and this is my favourite song. You should check tonall their song you will never be disapointed. And you should definitly watch them live they're killing it, Amazing and the crowd singing to every song is so powerful and crazy I love that 🤘🤘. This band is really different then other band and they still rock and make record in 2022 🤘
And btw I suggested something on your other page. I’m the one who suggested Drum Corps International, specifically Phantom Regiment Spartacus 2008. I really think you’d love it!
We need songs like this those days. Uplifting, positive, artists not taking themselves seriously. Just good unapologetic fun.
His catalog is huge. R.O.C.K in the USA!!!
"It's my Life" 🔥 "I'll be there for you" 🗣️🎙️🔥🔥💯💥
Enjoy this rabbit hole! There are so many amazing songs from over the years. The entire Slippery When Wet album is pure gold!
I still love this song as much today as I did when it first came out in 86.
This is real 80s music and yes, I remember the big hair! I loved this song when it came out in 1986 - great tune and fab to sing along to and of course to dance to!

One of the most beloved songs of that entire decade.
And one of the songs of my life. Thank you.
In the same vibe, I suggest Bon Jovi "You give love a bad name" or a rock ballad, "I'll be there for you"
I've seen them in concert like 4 times and they would always bring it. This song was electrifying live!
In this song Richie Sambora uses the talkbox, an instrument used a lot by Peter Frampton, where he makes different sounds with his voice and characterizes both this song
Joe Walsh too

ALL ABOARD THE BON JOVI TRAIN WOOOOO-WOOOOO! 🚂
"Lay Your Hands On me" "Bad Medicine" "Blaze Of Glory"
Can't go wrong with any of these...!
"You Give Love a Bad Name" also by Bon Jovi. One of my favorite songs of all time!
My fav band and my song💟💟💟🤘🤘🔥🔥
Bon Jovi actually flies over the audience at those live concerts!! (like the wires in the video) 🎶🤗
And you’re right. We really were jealous of their hair.
What’s not to love! My New Jersey boys! He is one of the nicest and most charitable people ever! Driving with Bob Jovi blasting.........there’s nothing better! Thanks Bros. Love ya. 💕
"You Give Love a Bad Name" and "Have a Nice Day" are two more that are definite "must sees". :)
More Bon Jovi, please!
You Give Love a Bad Name ..( same album ) and Bad Medicine....and Lay Your Hands on Me ...All by them
Hearing this in high school in the 90s didn't know it was from the 80s. The 80s was an era of music unto itself, just gold
Got to see Bon Jovi in concert 2006 - amazing. And a side note, Jon Bon Jovi married his high school sweetheart in 1989 and they are still together!
What makes Jon Bon Jovi really interesting to me is that he has taken voice lessons. He has learned to "scream" without hurting his vocal cords and can, therefore, reproduce the sound night after night on tour.

Jon Bon Jovi had the best hair! ❤

Springsteen greatest
Bringing me back. Saw them in their prime with about 75,000 friends. Great night! Cheers!
Seen them 3 times in concert. Love them ❤️. Definitely fun times

I can't recall what I ate for breakfast yesterday but since the day this record came I've been able to sign every lyric without the song even playing.
LIVING ON A PRAYER WAS NUMBER 20, OF THE BEST ROCK SONGS EVER!!!!!🥰
I grew up listening to this as a child of the 80s. I'm not surprised you love it. There are certain songs that transcend cultural boundaries.

Oh one of my fav song by BONJOVI 😍 another one is “You give love a bad name” such EPIC song.
Good Concert band when whole crowd sings along.

Bon Jovi is an awesome band Fun fact Jon's father was a former barber for the Marines and he is the one that actually done Jon's hair. I do hope you react to more of their music ❤️
Saw Them in Memphis "Slippery When Wet" Tour!!! UNFORGETTABLE!!👍🏼😎
Bon Jovi band is and was great.
Another member of the same band was Richie Sambora. He was lead guitar and vocalist.
He did soloist work and you should see what he did as well.
This band was great because of all or each of the band members.

Slippery when Wet is their best album, in my opinion, that every song is great.🎶🎶💕💕 Loved your reaction, the joy is real and it shows🦋
I can't lie, if I hear the Song a couple of more times in my life, I'm most likely gonna commit seppuku. But you can't deny it's iconic status.
My most treasured teenage album! There is an incredible live performances of this song in Zürich Switzerland, you can feel that talkbox talking to you 😊
I'd like to see you do some Van Halen, Journey, and Bad Company! 🤘

When I was in 8th grade BonJovi ruled the World 🌍. Our yearbook theme was "Never Say Goodbye" that year.
Great reaction, as always! And YES, I was always jealous of his hair😂 I pictured him just wash & go and I'd spend an hour to get that kind of height!! I moved to NJ when he blew up, so it was kind of a nightmare, the overplay on radio, but he was great & you guys made me appreciate it again, thanks!♥️
