Bon Jovi & Jimmy Barnes - Good Times (Melbourne 2001)

[@diannemarinari7936]

Michael Hutchence and Jimmy Barnes were the best of "THE BEST" when together performing "Good Times!"

[@yowodup6094]

I would say Jimmy and INXS and The Easybeats are the only ones to give this song kick. After all The Easybeats wrote it.

[@randomcomputer7248]

Bon Jovi great in their own right. But yeh I concur, MIke was much better for this one

[@carloshugocenturion545]

Dont know what all of you think, but I stay with the versión made between Jimmy Barnes and Keith Urban (of course after the original and best versión with INXS-Michael Hutchense)

[@peterdubois65]

@@carloshugocenturion545 um the original is by the first great Aussie rock band the easybeats but the Barnes Hutchence cover was pretty good

[@synthonaplinth5980]

This version is more like 'Good Grief'.

[@lauragenrebert6112]

Imposible comparar terrible voz de el más bello del planeta tierra MICHAEL HUTCHENCE ❤️. Es otra clase musical la Bon Jovi. Solo vine a ver y escuchar para certificar que MICHAEL HUTCHENCE fue es y será único ÚNICO!!!!!!!!!!! 🤍

[@dannygomez123]

Completamente de acuerdo

[@via1114]

what a difference between this version and the one w/ INXS. The cover that Hutch sang w/ Jimmy is so good that this sing-along does not measure up to it..

[@bobbybowers356]

Why in the world would Jon bring out a singer that blows him away.

[@MegaJuliaElena]

nadie supera la version de inxs con jimmy barnes, lo siento bon jovi

[@andrelupesi]

Michael Hutchence: the best!

[@BonVivant.MarHerrera]

Jon in case you havent notice THIS IS A ROCK SONG NOT A LULLABY!!!! Damm I miss Hutchence ...

[@anasantana1504]

Jimmy had this but alas BJ was was not in the picture. Jimmy was just toooooo good!
Michael Hutchence and Jimmy's version is heaps better than this one!!

[@scarlettroger1508]

Jon Bon Jovi sounds like a gold prospector from the 1950’s

[@JiMMY-my1ds]

😂

[@anotherdingo5281]

best part of this was Tico Torres on the drums. can't believe they turned Jimmy's mic down so far.

[@carnivaltym]

Ive heard them all, but the best is Mr Barnes on his own! ❤️😎🤗

[@michaellivesey4354]

Bon jovi would of been shitting themselves when a true voice arrived, but true Aussie, he let them play..Respect Jim

[@bringbackcommonsense528]

It was a great night and you just had to be there to have seen what went on. It was magical.

[@latimer1964]

It's OK, but not a patch on INXS and Jimmy doing it - the live video is sensational and it makes you realise just how good INXS were live

[@peterdubois65]

Was much better off my tree in the front after watching heaps of great Aussie music

[@dazzahaidle4362]

Nothing can.best Mr Jimmy Barnes he's way out there on his own rock on. Jimmy

[@70snostalgia]

Jon didn't learn Mike's harmony. Naughty.........

[@lucyjones7276]

oh dear...Jimmy giving it all he's got and they turn him down while Jon sings like he's singing to a small room...sorry Jimmy

[@synthonaplinth5980]

In Jimmy's home country, yet..how disrespectful.

[@Cherrybomb510]

If Jon Bon Jovi wasn't such a jack-off he'd have given Jimmy HIS microphone, and stfu.

[@SXI96]

No band should attempt to cover this song, Michael's voice was impeccable, however, Jimmy rocked it, what a damn powerful voice!

[@2ofalsbells]

+SXI96how can you copmlain about a cover of a cover, maybe the fact inxs and barnsey covered it from easy beats

[@SXI96]

+alan eades admitting to my stupidity, I wasn't aware the Barnes/INXS version was a itself a cover, in any case, that version is a step up from easybeats, this is a step down and a slap in the face, Bon Jovi doesn't have the vocal prowess that Hutchence had in attempting this song, aside from Jimmy Barnes great vocals, this was horrible

[@2ofalsbells]

well we will never know , i agree the inxs barnsey track is awesome but it was the 80's. this was 18 yrs later, jovi could hit oot the hi's back then but hey we all get older

[@sevenz1471]

jimmy the fucking gentleman immediately put's it in low range before bon's limitations are made obvious to all.... jimmy fkn rox ... jimmy for acdc!

[@willkirkoff1333]

You absolutely cannot beat Michael that's for damn sure!

[@FIGGOAT]

CLIFF NOTES: 1) Don't ever do this again Jimmy. 2) Sound engineer earned double rates during this song juggling Barnsey's superpowered voice to the mouses squeak of JBJ. 3) Show's just what an Incredible job Barnsey and Hutchence did with this song....and live!!!!! 4) This above performance Is atrocious. JB couldn't save It.

[@justinfitzpatrick191]

Jon Bon Jovi, you were great in the '80s but you should take your silly gold trousers and go home. We have a real rockstar here!

[@marcelomgolpe.e2023]

Estos si q son conciertos de música verdadera emoción grandes artistas de la historia de la cápsula del tiempo vivan los 80

[@darbamelenchuk3057]

There is no way Jon BonJovi should be attempting this classic- let alone Down Under. No replacing Michael on this one.

[@guitarman3968]

Now Jimmy Barnes is a VOCALIST!

[@homesickgeordieashleyoutto1342]

Yes was there. Awesome night

[@jocelynvarela1896]

Michel hotchense es the lo mejor no hay comparacion con esta version

[@lokilvr5387]

Jimmy nailed this as always….. i adore JBJ but he just doesnt have the grit jimmy has

[@runehede2888]

Sorry... But INXS as backing band, would have sounded so much better. Nice try from Bon Jovi, but one of the men that could do it was definitely our beloved Michael Hutchence! R.I.P.

[@acoustically9201]

You reckon the sound guys were under instructions to make sure that Barnes didn't get too much spotlight here. Usual tricks. He still smashes it out the park. He was major league rock vocalist.

[@denisbellars9260]

Not a patch on Hutch , no where near it , hutch just owned this with Jimmy of course !!

[@lorenzapagliani5830]

Grazie per questo bellissimo video

[@TheMDGMobile]

Barnes smokes him here. Mixers backed him off so JBJ is not embarassed

[@sevenz1471]

spot on

[@carot2003]

Sounds like they have turn down Jimmys mic..

[@cristianvarela8240]

La caqo vez jon bon jovy nito mestri tito sambora y inx temon

[@sg72646]

Jimmy had this but alas BJ was was not in the picture. Jimmy was just toooooo good!

[@fabiolacristina7004]

Michael Hutchence Jimmy e Bon Jovi na minha cabeça ,Uau !!!

[@homesickgeordieashleyoutto1342]

Barnsey rockin the early slim shady look

[@CuriousRose]

Aussie Meets New Jersey= Pure Magic🔥🔥

[@peter61967]

Just leave this song with Barnsy and Hutch!! Full STOP

[@markshepherd1308]

wow...not a patch on the inxs n jimmy version

[@JAWs313]

Love Bon Jovi but he is too laid back for this song...as someone else mentioned, it sounds like he was trying to sing a ballad, not rock out like Michael Hutchinson would have... and why was his microphone set 3x louder than Barnesy's until the last 20seconds or so? Was hard to hear him and that's saying something, with the power he has in his voice!

[@bluekoala4382]

When Barnesy was going through his Eminem phase.

[@BMJSpectre1962]

PERFECTION, I LOVE CC, I LOVE JB, I LOVE ME, I LOVE MINE, I LOVE AUSTRALIA, THIS IS MY MY LIFE

[@matthewoboyle6010]

JBJ couldn’t carry Michael Hutchence bags.

[@jimmyjohnson94]

this song is good times, not ride the night away.

[@chrisbesier2641]

All this song does is make me miss michael

[@alyssrabby3095]

Lost Boys Wonderfull Film With Kiefer Sutherland Jon Bon Jovi You Are With Michael So Very Genious Artists And Personns ............

[@mauriciotamblay]

Un irreemplazable Hutchence 🔥

[@gregoryrush1643]

JBJ sounds like he wants to sing a ballad. no rock voice whatsoever.

[@wendellburkhart8297]

Yes indeed they were .

[@papajonng9657]

Agree Jimmy and Michael own that song, Jon ruined it.

[@craigweinert6194]

+Fabiola Herbert - Easybeats & Stevie OWNED it - Jimmy & Michael honored it

[@chiptmcc8656]

Uh..... Steve Wright.

[@AshArcher]

Bit harsh - for a one-off for a charity concert, it was fun!

[@flowerpower8722]

Nice of him to pay homage. Maybe that was the best vocal match format in rehearsal. Different presentation. Personally I like it.

[@TheSunnybunny2000]

BARNSEY SMOKED BON JOVI
AND I AGREE THEY MIXED THE SONG TO SUPPORT BON JOVI

[@empee82]

Nup. Just, Nup. Michael and Jimmy own that song. Nup. Sorry Jon Bon, No way. Nup.

[@madtom8570]

Yep yep yep you so right.....that's terrible Jon...worse than your gold pants!!

[@noelfraser46]

I agree - JBJ isn't even the best singer in Bon Jovi!!

[@chrish4469]

Stevie Wright owns the song. After all it is a Easybeats cover

[@FIGGOAT]

Stevie may have written It bud, but Jimmy and Michael "own" It. This version Is lame AF.

[@chrish4469]

You can't own a cover song. I do have the 7" single of the Jimmy and Michael version it's great, But owning it NO

[@gregoverton3755]

shouldve got Richie to do the Hutchence part!!!

[@TheMDGMobile]

they have barnes turned down in the mix cos his voice owns jbj.

[@madeinwales68]

JBJ not in the same league as Micheal and this proves it.

[@bobbyjovi]

Hutchence is a Jim Morrison rip off.
Jbj shits on Hutch live any day of the week.
This isn't a Bjovi song.
They still out stadiums.
Inxs were gone early 90s

[@mikehumm9660]

BON JOVI rules

[@tomcalvin232]

He's a good singer as long as you don't listen to the inxs version

[@cliffsunn]

The original - The Easybeats..!!...

[@scifijovi]

Gold.

[@briango5734]

ROCK AND ROLL..! SI

[@roybeckerman9253]

Barnsey blew Jon Bon Jovi out of the water. And that's not easy.
It shows Barnsey should be fronting AC / DC with all their current problems.

[@TheNellamaria]

cool duo!

[@i-3307]

The song was written by AC/DC's brother... that's pedigree! Hat's off to old Bonj, what a crowd pleaser!

[@sherrrsyems1175]

I-330 I Love Your Picture, it's A beauty. 👍👍🆒️🆔️♾

[@kathymclachlan614]

Absolute shit. I bet Barnsy was spewin when he saw this. Him and Micheal shit on this.

[@i-3307]

All of your comments are way to harsh on old Bonj! Jimmy Barnes IS the king of husky voice screaming, even Brian Johnson and Rod Stewart are in awe....all Northerners.... coincidence... I don't know

[@OldNavajoTricks]

Its that ol Northern grit...
Mind you, Lemmy had it considering he was a Southerner..,

[@mikehumm9660]

Just like Jimmy Barnes

[@mimowes8436]

Barnes smokes him here. Mixers backed him off so JBJ is not embarassed
JBJ not in the same league as Micheal and this proves it.

[@fabiolacristina7004]

Good times !!!

[@AshArcher]

Eugh, so many negative comments - it was a one-off for a charity concert - just two amazing singers having some fun for a special event, not like it was an official release or anything.
JBJ and Barnsey rock

[@PabloSantaFe87]

Is true, thanks for telling me

[@deyanphotography498]

Jimmy you are pure rock!

[@lappin6482]

💯

[@cristianvarela8240]

Bon jovy en chile

[@shankspony9369]

I recon they had Jimmys mic turned down...otherwise hed have swamped Bon Jovi..

[@sixsentsoldiers]

Jon, at least know the words. Jimmy is fucking bad ass.

[@timhernan79]

Jimmy had more fun with Michael.....such a poor performance from Jon Bon Jovi.....insulting.

[@carloshugocenturion545]

Dont know what all of you think, but I stay with the versión made between Jimmy Barnes and Keith Urban (of course after the original and best versión with INXS-Michael Hutchense)

[@redoz9768]

They had the audio level on Barnes' mic lower than Bon Jovi's.

[@Suomioz78]

Bon Jovi guy is so scared of Barnes. Barnes looks to direct the band, it's his song. (Well, the cover of The Easy
beats song)

[@jcsmith3806]

Barnsy whooped JBJ's ass... Period!

[@shullu2]

Michael Hutchence and Jimmy's version is heaps better than this one!!

[@wayneblack9307]

Such a bad performance.

[@AshArcher]

goddamn, for a one-off for a charity show, it was a bit of fun!

[@TheUnsignedbands]

If you have to change the key of the song to suit the singer it’s not going to sound its best. Jimmy had to come down a key here to accommodate JBJ. Inxs and barnsey do this song the best. Sorry folks.

[@docguy89]

1:24 Jimmy is like "What am I singing with?"

[@synthonaplinth5980]

True, JBJ looked like he was doing a piss take of the song.

[@badkitty1889]

Jimmy stole it !

[@jrcvideosb1804]

fuck thats good who ever took this video and stuck it up on you tube thanxs for letting every body to see it

[@dismutased]

compare the pair..... ruclips.net/video/TimxLOW922o/видео.html

[@mikehumm9660]

Yep

[@pablourfer4627]

Good times !!!
Michael Hutchence and Jimmy's version is heaps better than this one!!

[@juliocesarmasiasarevalo1956]

Buen intento BJ. Pero nada superará la versión de MH&JB!!!!!

[@trebledamages]

The Easybeats own this song.

[@mag-nm7tw]

I was thinking the same thing. INXS did a good version but the original has more soul to it.

[@yowodup6094]

I reckon the only people who can kill it with this song is the Easybeats and INXS with jimmy. From Aussie to Aussie.

[@DKashman]

A very restrained version, not suited to Jon's vocals, nice try but not as good as Jim & Mick with INXS.

[@Dvdjnknsn]

Didn't realize how weak Jon's voice is until I compared it to Michael's. Hell of an entertainer - but not even close to being a powerful singer. I think he's okay with that, though!

[@mikehumm9660]

BON GIOVI

[@PabloSantaFe87]

Yes, Is my new account :)

[@janalinhartova8614]

💃💃💃👌

[@addienaacrew8030]

Wow Jimmy 😂

[@satyricon65]

This was the diet caffeine cover of the original.

[@chiselfan1981]

not as good as ther inxs/jimmy version, Jon should belt it abit more, I still like it

[@donkeybutt5352]

Jim has Mic turned up
Jimmy smoked him big time

[@olivierbourdin5160]

Difficile pour Jon de se retrouver à chanter face à une telle bête de scène. La voix de Jimmy domine complètement le titre. Et je préfère de loin la version avec Michaël Hutchence.

[@TheKeepitreal]

Johnny Cash would have song the high notes better than Bon Jovi - dissappointing.

[@michiharada1562]

Michael Hutchence Jimmy e Bon Jovi na minha cabeça ,Uau !!!
Nup. Just, Nup. Michael and Jimmy own that song. Nup. Sorry Jon Bon, No way. Nup.
