You've heard bits of this one simply by virtue of the fact that you draw breath on planet earth. Movies. TV. Commercials. They put some of this in EVERYTHING. If you got the money, they got the time. Make that money Jon! Another good one Billy. Carry on sir.
Marina Sprague my kids all know 70’s and 80’s music as well. They appreciate that they have such a diverse music base. My 12 yr old asks for me to turn the radio to 70’s station all the time. I’m glad you have gotten to experience that as well.
I STARTED LISTENING TO REACTION VIDEOS CAUSE I WANTED TO SEE WHAT OTHER FOLKS THOUGHT OF MY FAVORITE MUSIC. NOW THEIR FAVORITE MUSIC IS MY NEW FAVORITE MUSIC! SO MUCH TALENT!!
Two other Bon Jovi recommendations, if you want to appreciate his vocal range check out Living on a Prayer. The other is the theme song to Young Guns 2- Blaze of Glory (another cowboy western themed song) Oh, one more Have a Nice Day. Sounds innocent enough but think saying have a nice day with your middle finger raised high. Great song. I don’t remember for sure but Blaze of Glory may actually be Jon Bon Jovi without his band.
In terms of vocal range, his best song is "Bed of Roses" (the original studio recording). He can't hit that high note at the end anymore, so he lowered it for his live concerts in recent years.
An iron horse (steel horse) is a motorcycle. Modern day Jesse James! And you're right, they were fantastic in concert. The hair band era was an absolute blast!
@@deannacrownover3 They said when this song first came out that the steel horse was their tour bus and being out on the road and different cities every night
Deanna Crownover I’ve got a chance to see KISS on their farewell tour, I’ve never seen them, and I need to! I missed Motley Crue’s last tour..and still wish I could have went, but Cher has had like 3 ‘Farewell’ tours, so I can still hope!
@@AC-gb7do if you have the opportunity to see kiss than absolutely do it! I saw them before they removed the makeup and I'll tell you what, they were the first band to use pyrotechnics to that extreme and it was A Whole New World opening up! I've never been a fan of Cher. ( we used to watch her on the Sonny & Cher show back before all the plastic surgery and dental work) Then again, I'm not really a fan of female singers for the most part but I do like Stevie Nicks and the Wilson sisters from Heart.
I faintly remember an interview with Jon and he said that the “steel horse” referred to in the song was the tour bus. This song was a reflection of a time when they were on tour. If I remember correctly. It was a long time ago but the tour bus part stuck with me. Their song “Living On a Prayer” is considered to be one of the biggest songs to come out of the 80’s, not just the hair metal scene. Even people who didn’t listen to metal knew this song.
The acoustic version of this song will really knock your socks off. I saw them in concert a thousand years ago. When guitarist, Richie Sambora, walked out on onstage with a triple-necked Ovation guitar (mandolin, 6-string, 12-string), and played the intro to this song, I had a religious experience.
This song always reminds me of an old episode of “Miami Vice” from the ‘80s. It was the theme song of an episode where Willie Nelson played a retired Texas Ranger out to revenge the murder of his son.
Back in the day I bought the album for cheap on cassette tape on a flea market somewhere in Turkey. I had not seen the movie at that point and when when I first listened to it and they went "Yoohoo, I'll make you famous" at the beginning of the first song I thought "Damn! It's a fake!". Turned out it wasn't and after watching the movie I knew what it was all about. Still gives me a good chuckle thinking back to that. I've since moved on from listening to Bon Jovi regularly but this album I still like very much. The cassette is long gone by now, of course.
The song is a homage to bon jovi's early touring days when they were doing 100s of live shows on world tours, night after night, travelling around on a coach day after day, night after night, and the crowd would want them dead or alive, no matter what, they had to perform. Sometimes they'd sleep, sometimes not for days, people they meet, go their separate ways. Tell the days by the bottle (whiskey) that they'd drink. Times when they're alone, all they can do is think. Seen a million faces, and they've rocked them all. It's the Bon Jovi anthem.
You gotta watch Young Guns 1&2!!!!! They are such a great movies. You will love them. Man this song took me way back to the 80s. Best time to ever grow up in. (imo) All the hair bands like Bon Jovi, Cinderella Montley Crue etc...So happy you reacted to this. Now you gotta respond to LIVING ON A PRAYER by Bon Jovi. One of their most famous songs.
It's Jon's take on being a rock star and comparing it to a cowboy in the old west. The steel horse is the tour bus. The loaded six string? Think guitars. ;)
@@WizardPandora...maybe so, but in the context of the song that is not what it is about....it also shows them riding the tour bus....the whole song is about the life of a rock star on the road and pretty sure most travel in tour buses....but in a sense you are correct.
@@tattooedman42....good point but we aren't all bikers. That's the beauty of music. Multiple people can listen to the same song and interpret it in multiple ways. I've personally never heard a biker theme to this song so it doesn't come across to me in that sense. The whole song rings of a rock star's life on the road. But as a musician myself, I won't be so staunch as to say I'm right and your wrong. Just 2 different perceptions of the same lyrics. Have a great weekend.
Jason Elliott you make some good points yourself. Although I know about the biker horse thing, a lot of the song also strikes me about life on the road. I think we only have two different perceptions about one lyric, but as you said, I wouldn’t go so far as to say I’m right and you’re wrong. You have a great weekend also and thank you.
You should listen to the Black Crowes She Talks to Angels or hard to handle. I know you like Metallica do you still should listen to now that we're dead or Halo on fire.
I saw Bon Jovi in concert in 1989 when I was 16 on their New Jersey tour and they were awesome, especially Richie Sambora! I grew up in Anchorage, AK and they were one of only a few bands back then that came to Alaska so we were psyched. They were only planning one show but they sold out three. Jon could still sing back then and it was a blast. My wife finally saw Bon Jovi in concert last year (without Sambora) and Jon’s vocals were crap with every song lowered and not even trying to hit the notes anyway. Sad. Enjoy exploring more Bon Jovi because they are hit machines who pumped out great rockin’ songs and heartfelt ballads. Some additional suggestions for rockin’ songs are Blood on Blood, You Give Love a Bad Name, Livin’ On a Prayer, Runaway, Bad Medicine, Lay Your Hands on Me, I’d Die For You, Blaze of Glory, and Wild in the Streets. Suggestions for ballads are Always, Never Say Goodbye, Born to Be My Baby, I’ll Be There For You, Living in Sin, Bed of Roses, and Someday I’ll Be Saturday Night.
This is a song about being a band on the road and going from town to town....Almost every big band has a similar song about being lonely on the road. This is a good one.
It was on the soundtrack for Deadliest Catch. It was also played on Supernatural tv show. The music is based on the acoustic guitar riff Sambora came up with. It is one of the first things many new guitarists try to play. The "guitar part sounding like Led Zepplin" comments makes considerable sense, as Richie Sambora absolutely idolized Jimmy Page (Zep's Lead Guitarist) trying to emulate and even improve on riffs JP taught him.
A common misconception about this song is that a ‘Steel Horse’ is a motorcycle, it typically is, in this case however, it’s a tour bus. The point of this song is to highlight the strains of touring, he’s Wanted Dead or Alive by the audience, like an old west outlaw going town to town, making no real connections, the life brings fame and hardship and the audience each night has no idea about the behind the scenes strain, it’s fresh to them. He has a ‘Loaded Six String’ on his back. That’s juxtaposing a guitar with a six-shooter western revolver.
Bon Jovi is the kind of band that even if you don't know them well, you have heard A LOT of their songs even if you didn't know it at the time. You should listen to some of their newer material, post Crush and It's My Life.
Here are a few to check out. “I Don't Want to Miss a Thing” by Aerosmith, “We Are Love” by Il Volo (there are 2 versions, English & Italian), “If I Can Dream” by Elvis Presley, “How Am I Supposed to Live Without You” by Michael Bolton & “I’ll Never Fall In Love Again” by Tom Jones.
Great song by a great band and Jon Bon Jovi's voice is also great! He has a ton of awesome songs! You should react to "It's My Life", " Livin On a Prayer", "You Give Love a Bad Name" and "Hallelujah"!
Not about how old you are as a reaction artist Sir! Its about the reaction! I never would have heard JOYNAR LUCAS, J. COLE, TECH N9NE, THE REAL AK, NF, LOGIC, or known how many AMAZING LYRICIST ARE HERE IN THIS DAY! NOW!! 2019!!! THANK YOU!!!
Well that’s dope! I’m glad I can put you up on somethings like you all have put me on to artist I would have never listened to before doing this channel! The journey isn’t over either
This song was in the movie about Billie the Kid that's probably why you recognize the beginning...the one where Emilio Estevez played Billy the Kid Lou Diamond Phillips, Kiefer Sutherland, Young Guns!!! That's the movies!!!😘 it was in Young Guns II
I know this song from Supernatural season 3 finale and it makes me cry EVERY TIME! I literally balling my eyes out right now.😂 I really like the song though!
this song is about the life you live on tour.life on the road is a lonely world,dead or alive,they dont give a fuck,they want the show they paid for,no matter if youre sick,depressed,injured etc.....dead or alive
This song is about touring and life on the road for a rock star (I've seen a million faces..and I've rocked them all). The "steel horse" is the tour bus. Wanted "dead or alive"... by the fans.
This song is mistakenly attributed to the movie "Young Guns II" (and sometimes "Young Guns") but Jon Bon Jovi did another song for YG2 called "Blaze of Glory." You should listen to it and watch the movies (in order) as well. They pretty much had most the of the 1980's "Brat Pack" in them.
The Wanted is from 1986 You give love a bad name(2986 Livin on a prayer (1986) Dry county is epic.do the lyrics video(1992. do the keep the faith live from London 95. Its my life (2000) Bon Jovi tour now in Europe in the biggest stadiums!!is a legendery rock band!! They sold 130.000.000 millions album's from1984-2019.
Yeah, Bon Jovi had a lot of great songs. I'd also suggest (along with pretty much everyone else here) "Blaze of Glory". And also "It's My Life", "Livin' on a Prayer", "You Give Love a Bad Name", and "Always".
If you enjoyed this, watch rock of ages. Tom cruise, yes, the mission impossible man sang this song. It's a great movie. Musical type movie about rock and roll. Great great movie
Another good song with an Old West type of feel to it is "Bad Company" by Bad Company. And no, that's not a typo. Both the band and the song are called Bad Company.
BillyYouSoCrazy Since you did this one you should do "Blaze Of Glory", "You Give Love A Bad Name", "Bad Medicine", "Always", "Never Say Goodbye", "Born To Be My Baby" by Bon Jovi. Ohh and you should check out "Seminole Wind" & "Straight Tequila Night" by John Anderson and "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes" by George Jones.
If you're as sad as I am then you picture the scene from the scooby doo movie where Fred is jousting the black Knight ghost, I loved this song way before that but can't help picturing it in my head
Is the song that's played at the beginning of the movie called Harley Davidson and Marlboro Man and it's also the theme song to Deadliest Catch on Discovery
everytime this song plays i think of the 4 greatest outlaws that ever lived Jesse James, Billy the kid Bonnie and Clyde the legacy they all left behind will never be replicated
If no one else has said it, this one was a metaphor about the toils of being in a touring rock band. If you liked it, check out Home Sweet Home by Motley Crue.
Billy, this song is about touring in a band. The steel horse is the tour bus. A loaded 6 string on my back is his guitar
A steel horse is a jet airplane
@@cincascam Could it not be a tour bus?
@@cincascam "I drive all night just to get back home" how is that in any way an airplane
Mn Conservative no it’s not (wink) it’s about Sam and Dean Winchester hunting demons....
Funny I always thought it was a motorcycle. Shows what I know.
Bon Jovi Blaze of Glory is a good one to react to
The live version though, it's better than the studio version IMO
This is used as the theme song to Deadliest Catch on Discovery Channel.
Ur Right
It's also been on Spaceballs, and Harley-Davidson the Marlboro Man
And it was played in one of the scoobydoo movies
I believe but I maybe wrong but wasn’t it used in young guns as well
You've heard bits of this one simply by virtue of the fact that you draw breath on planet earth. Movies. TV. Commercials. They put some of this in EVERYTHING. If you got the money, they got the time. Make that money Jon!
Another good one Billy. Carry on sir.
I'm 17 and I love Bon Jovi! I grew up on 70s and 80s music and feel blessed that I did! Love your reaction!
Marina Sprague my kids all know 70’s and 80’s music as well. They appreciate that they have such a diverse music base. My 12 yr old asks for me to turn the radio to 70’s station all the time.
I’m glad you have gotten to experience that as well.
I STARTED LISTENING TO REACTION VIDEOS CAUSE I WANTED TO SEE WHAT OTHER FOLKS THOUGHT OF MY FAVORITE MUSIC. NOW THEIR FAVORITE MUSIC IS MY NEW FAVORITE MUSIC! SO MUCH TALENT!!
Supernatural TV show Sam and Dean sang with it while riding in the Impala.
More Bon Jovi: "Livin' On A Prayer", "You Give Love A Bad Name", "Always"
I remember Bon Jovi since the 80's
I saw them live w/ Ratt!!
Great show!
Jon Bon Jovi and his band have some talent!!
Two other Bon Jovi recommendations, if you want to appreciate his vocal range check out Living on a Prayer. The other is the theme song to Young Guns 2- Blaze of Glory (another cowboy western themed song) Oh, one more Have a Nice Day.

In terms of vocal range, his best song is "Bed of Roses" (the original studio recording). He can't hit that high note at the end anymore, so he lowered it for his live concerts in recent years.
Bed of Roses was my jam. But honestly my favorite song by him is '99 Degree in the Shade'. Its a funny song!
Bad medicine
Jon and Richie were the very 1st singers to play acoustically at the AMAs. This is why they started the show show in MTV.
Bon Jovi You give love a bad name!!!
Great song
Toni Smith
I love that song!!! :)
Song is "Shot through the Heart"
Good suggestion too
Also a great intro song to the movie "Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man" (Mickey Rourke, Don Johnson)
I consider this "asphalt rock" - love it.
Shigawire You shot me, you shitbird!
Plano Jag It’s better to be dead and cool than alive and un cool!
An iron horse (steel horse) is a motorcycle. Modern day Jesse James!
And you're right, they were fantastic in concert. The hair band era was an absolute blast!

Dude you made me sub because of the massive range in your reactions.. no one else goes on a bon jovi binge out the blue..
I'm a truck driver too man, I've blasted this tune in the middle of the night numerous times
MTV started the acoustic show because of Bon Jovi singing live accoustically on the AMAs.
I will never forget seeing them live. Fantastic live, fantastic show! They have so many great songs, tons of hits. Thanks for reacting!
You definitely heard Living on a Prayer, that's Bon Jovi
It was even the last song played on the show,, in the last scene, in "Everybody Hates Chris", which was really cool.
The acoustic version of this song will really knock your socks off. I saw them in concert a thousand years ago. When guitarist, Richie Sambora, walked out on onstage with a triple-necked Ovation guitar (mandolin, 6-string, 12-string), and played the intro to this song, I had a religious experience.

Hey Billy check it out Jon Bon Jovi blaze of glory from the movie Young Guns 2.
LOVE that song!!!!
@@renee-kingsdaughter5584 yeah I like the Young Guns
1&2 movie's

It's the Bon Jovi anthem.
1:55 Which is why, whenever possible (and not blocked), you should watch the official video for whatever band you react to.
This song has been sampled, been on all kinds of movies, commercials, tv shows, etc, that's why you know it somewhat.
This song used as opening theme for Deadliest Catch !

Tyson Twin 2 that whole album is great!
I was born in 1977 I grew up listening this in the 80’s and other music like this
Ritchie needs back in the band. His Harmonies and playing make this band .

My Bon Jovi favorite song is "Bad Medicine"
This song was at the height of his career and it's about him being wanted by everyone dead or alive the steel horse is his motorcycle
That's what I was always told. I didn't fact check cause I like it the way I listen to it 🤗
You should listen to the Black Crowes She Talks to Angels or hard to handle. I know you like Metallica do you still should listen to now that we're dead or Halo on fire.
I love Bon Jovi, seen him live twice. Song got even better when Sam & Dean sang it in Supernatural.
It was the theme song for Deadliest Catch.
Bon Jovi for the win. Good call my mans! Thanks for being so crazy!
This song was always on in the gym on my base when I was in the Air Force. Guys used to always say the steel horse for us was the aircraft.
The live version is amazing. When the crowd sings the first part!!
I saw Bon Jovi in concert in 1989 when I was 16 on their New Jersey tour and they were awesome, especially Richie Sambora!

Favorite song from movie.... Harley Davidson and Marlboro Man..
Highly underrated movie
FYI!!!! the 'other vocals' (WANTED) belongs to Bon Jovi's guitarist Richie Sambora!!
This is a song about being a band on the road and going from town to town....Almost every big band has a similar song about being lonely on the road. This is a good one.
was played in Supernatural.... Young Guns 1 and 2
Bon Jovi - It's my life
This song is in several movies. Bet that is where youve heard the strings and hook
It was on the soundtrack for Deadliest Catch. It was also played on Supernatural tv show. The music is based on the acoustic guitar riff Sambora came up with. It is one of the first things many new guitarists try to play. The "guitar part sounding like Led Zepplin" comments makes considerable sense, as Richie Sambora absolutely idolized Jimmy Page (Zep's Lead Guitarist) trying to emulate and even improve on riffs JP taught him.
Trucker eh? My dad was one. People don't usually realize how hard that job can be. Much respect my friend.
It's about an outlaw
Also,this song was from the second Scooby-Doo live action movie.
A common misconception about this song is that a ‘Steel Horse’ is a motorcycle, it typically is, in this case however, it’s a tour bus. The point of this song is to highlight the strains of touring, he’s Wanted Dead or Alive by the audience, like an old west outlaw going town to town, making no real connections, the life brings fame and hardship and the audience each night has no idea about the behind the scenes strain, it’s fresh to them. He has a ‘Loaded Six String’ on his back. That’s juxtaposing a guitar with a six-shooter western revolver.
Runaway is a great song, one of their earliest ones.
Bon Jovi is the kind of band that even if you don't know them well, you have heard A LOT of their songs even if you didn't know it at the time.
You should listen to some of their newer material, post Crush and It's My Life.
I'm sure it's been mentioned, but this song is about the life of a musician traveling around playing shows. He's using old west metaphors.
In the late 1980s/early 1990s, this song was a staple at near every biker clubhouse or bar.
Here are a few to check out. “I Don't Want to Miss a Thing” by Aerosmith, “We Are Love” by Il Volo (there are 2 versions, English & Italian), “If I Can Dream” by Elvis Presley, “How Am I Supposed to Live Without You” by Michael Bolton & “I’ll Never Fall In Love Again” by Tom Jones.
Great song by a great band and Jon Bon Jovi's voice is also great! He has a ton of awesome songs! You should react to "It's My Life", " Livin On a Prayer", "You Give Love a Bad Name" and "Hallelujah"!
shot through the heart. from 1rst album.... best bon Jovi song... and in and out of love.... love lies... breakout... only lonely...
Not about how old you are as a reaction artist Sir! Its about the reaction! I never would have heard JOYNAR LUCAS, J. COLE, TECH N9NE, THE REAL AK, NF, LOGIC, or known how many AMAZING LYRICIST ARE HERE IN THIS DAY! NOW!! 2019!!! THANK YOU!!!
Well that’s dope! I’m glad I can put you up on somethings like you all have put me on to artist I would have never listened to before doing this channel! The journey isn’t over either
If you ever watched Deadliest catch on the discovery channel, this is the song they play for the opening credits of the show.
One of my favorite Bon Jovi songs.👏👏
This song was in the movie about Billie the Kid that's probably why you recognize the beginning...the one where Emilio Estevez played Billy the Kid Lou Diamond Phillips, Kiefer Sutherland, Young Guns!!! That's the movies!!!😘 it was in Young Guns II
This Song is on an episode of supernatural & a part of the song is in the Scooby-Doo 2 Monsters Unleashed
I know this song from Supernatural season 3 finale and it makes me cry EVERY TIME! I literally balling my eyes out right now.😂 I really like the song though!
it was played everywhere when it was out. I heard it everywhere there was a radio
this song is about the life you live on tour.life on the road is a lonely world,dead or alive,they dont give a fuck,they want the show they paid for,no matter if youre sick,depressed,injured etc.....dead or alive
This song is about touring and life on the road for a rock star (I've seen a million faces..and I've rocked them all). The "steel horse" is the tour bus. Wanted "dead or alive"... by the fans.
Every time I listen to this song I always think of the movie Rock of Ages. XD Where Stacey Jaxx was singing to Constance
This song is mistakenly attributed to the movie "Young Guns II" (and sometimes "Young Guns") but Jon Bon Jovi did another song for YG2 called "Blaze of Glory." You should listen to it and watch the movies (in order) as well. They pretty much had most the of the 1980's "Brat Pack" in them.
SO MUCH GREAT MUSIC! SO MUCH TALENT! Without reactionist like you reacting to my oldschool music i would have missed out on the great newschool music
FUN FACT: Producers of the movie "Young Guns 2" wanted to use this song, but Bon Jovi wrote "Blaze of Glory" for them instead.
The Wanted is from 1986
You give love a bad name(2986
Livin on a prayer (1986)
Dry county is epic.do the lyrics video(1992.
do the keep the faith live from London 95.
Its my life (2000)
Bon Jovi tour now in Europe in the biggest stadiums!!is a legendery rock band!! They sold 130.000.000 millions album's from1984-2019.
Man, Jon was one of my favorite celebrity rock star crush but got to say, he had better hair than I did,lol
official videos are so much better than lyric ones. This was an 80's rock band and the performance is what it's all about.
Yeah, Bon Jovi had a lot of great songs. I'd also suggest (along with pretty much everyone else here) "Blaze of Glory". And also "It's My Life", "Livin' on a Prayer", "You Give Love a Bad Name", and "Always".
If you enjoyed this, watch rock of ages. Tom cruise, yes, the mission impossible man sang this song. It's a great movie. Musical type movie about rock and roll. Great great movie
Thanks to that movie I can't hear this song without adding "Dalai Lama after the line "And times when you're all alone all you do is think"!😂
Another good song with an Old West type of feel to it is "Bad Company" by Bad Company.
And no, that's not a typo. Both the band and the song are called Bad Company.
The “steel horse” he’s referring to is his motorcycle
his tour bus
You may have heard it in a old movie called Young Guns. Lou Diamond Philip's, Elmo Estesves( I think) Keitfer Sullivan and many others.
Love this song! Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora wrote this in the basement of Richie's Mom and Dad's basement.
His “Lay Your Hands On Me” is also phenomenal
Richie wrote this song with Bob Seagers "Turn the Page" in mind.
BillyYouSoCrazy Since you did this one you should do "Blaze Of Glory", "You Give Love A Bad Name", "Bad Medicine", "Always", "Never Say Goodbye", "Born To Be My Baby" by Bon Jovi. Ohh and you should check out "Seminole Wind" & "Straight Tequila Night" by John Anderson and "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes" by George Jones.
I'm DOWN with some Bon Jovi. This dude has an AMAZING voice. Can you please react to Hail to the King by Avenged Sevenfold?
Anybody gonna give Ritchie props for that harmony and solo?? 🤘🤘🤘
This song played in the show Deadliest Catch. You might have heard it there.
I have been driving trucks for almost 19 years now
