"YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME" AND "BLAZE OF GLORY" BANGERS !!!!
Blaze of Glory is 🔥 My faves are This ain’t a love song and Always
❤❤❤
❤❤❤😂 Young Guns! Don't get me started... 😂😅
@@Rockin357, I loved the young guns!
Check out the group Switch and their songs, There'll Never Be and I Wanna Be Closer.
The '80s wouldn't be the '80s without Bon Jovi!
Absolute Facts
For real...best of the best!! 🔥🔥🔥🎆
I cannot overstate how big this single was when it dropped. An atomic bomb in the popular zeitgeist whose impact resonates to this day.
Bon Jovi is 62 now so yes he was in his early 20s when this came out
Same age as me. I grew up listening to these guys.
Jon Bon Jovi thought this was a throw away song. Guitarist Richie Sambora told him he was crazy and fought for this song.
How could that be when Jon Bon Jovi wrote it about Reagan trickle down Economics.
@@jasonzartman9182 there are many sources where Jon says he wasn't impressed with the song and Richie told him he was crazy, that's a hit
@@jasonzartman9182 Just because he wrote it doesn't mean he thought it was good.
@@jasonzartman9182 More like Bidenomics. He was predicting the future.
Richie was the bigger talent, no?
The talk box has been around a long time. Peter Frampton and Joe Walsh were masters at it.
Exactly! Best place to see Peter using it is on Midnight Special, "Do You Feel Like We Do" and joe Walsh, Live From Daryl's House, featuring Joe's "Rocky Mountain Way"
Man, I was just coming here to say this!!
@@suecook1326Yes!! Both epic performances!!
So was mick Mars
I think he actually called Peter Frampton up, and borrowed it.
The joy I felt when they revisited Tommy and Gina in "It's My Life" 😃
Yeah, I remember BP said "Who's Tommy and Gina?"
@@allenwhitmer8192 yeah I remember him saying that. I think he might have only heard this song once or twice in his life especially since he didn’t remember who Tommy and Gina were. Now acting like he knows this song lol.
😂 That's just one of the many reasons why we 80's rock chicks were so happy! 🤘 That's guitarist Richie Sambora on the talk box 😍
Jon Von Jovi is the sweetest most humble person a great human being, marry forever and a great dad. Open a restaurant in NJ to feed the homeless and anybody that goes there hungry, he goes in person with his wife and children to serve the people, do not charge even people that aren't homeless if they want to pay something to help feed the hungry.
They actually have 2 of those now! If they can't pay, they'll have them do some dishes or something, just to give them a sense of pride. They don't feel like bums etc...bcuz they actually earned their meal! I'm sure the ones who are completely handicapped don't have to!! And that is correct, through all these years & rock star life, they still remain married today!! Him & his high school sweetheart have been married 34 years!! You rarely hear that from people who didn't live that lifestyle! Amen!!❤
@@jewls9697The story of how he & Dorothea eloped on a sudden impulse & married in Las Vegas, but didn't tell anyone about tying the knot cracked me up. Nobody knew for quite a while that they'd gotten married. If I remember correctly, Dorothea was/is a Black belt in karate.
Jon Bon Jovi was definitely a beautiful boy. There is no doubt about it. And he's still beautiful to this day. Bon Jovi, Journey, Van Halen and Johnny Cougar Mellencamp were the absolute flavor of the day.
Amen sista!! 🥰🥰
Bon Jovi is the sponsor of homeless shelters & programs for US veterans. Jon is New Jersey royalty. 😂 People thought Bon Jovi was just a throwaway hair band but they are still rocking today 😜
Well, he crowned Steve Perry as "The Voice." Shows Jon's musical taste is impeccable.
Yes, Freddie Mercury said the same!
@@amberrose8756 No he didn't, that is just a ridiculous rumor.
This brings me back to being 22 again hanging with my girls in Brooklyn, NY. He was 24. We loved him
Their new documentary is amazing! Jon was so far beyond his time!!! Great reaction!
Yes, I second that. I think the docuseries is on Hulu. It’s very interesting.
@cerisewilson4088 it is on Disney Plus and Hulu I think as I am a Canadian it is on Disney plus
Where can I find the documentary? Thanks.
@@chrismalloy7960Disney
@@chrismalloy7960 sorry, just checked. It’s on Hulu
Keep the faith, wanted dead or alive, lay your hands on me, bad medicine, it’s my life, lay your hands on me, raise your hands - the list goes on…… so many greats!
Bed of roses MV!!!!! A slightly older Bon Jovi highlights his vocals and artistry!!❤❤❤
I have always loved "Have A Nice Day" and "Misunderstood" although I think Misunderstood is underrated...not enough radio time. They have SO MANY great songs though so it's hard to choose a fav
71 and STILL Loving Bon Jovi.
There are literally devoted women [that I know] in their 50's today who have followed Bon Jovi all over the world their entire lives and still do. Crazy shit. And they're "normal" people. Like hospital bookeepers, business owners etc.
I am one lol😂
At 56, I have been a dedicated Bon Jovi fan since Day One, and will be til my dying day.
I’m 58 and still think he’s the sexiest man EVER
@@kimgouge7120he’s still gorgeous
I have friends that go to every Bon Jovi concert that comes to town (I'm 52). I love Bon Jovi.
I am 62 years old and I believe Peter Frampton was one of the first big name bands to use the Talkbox
Sweet emotion by Aerosmith was before Frampton
Sweet emotion was ‘75, Joe Walsh used in ‘73, Frampton in ‘74
The first high-powered talk box was developed by Bob Heil.
I'm not that old but I remember!! Idk if y'all know who this is, but I had a big poster on my wall of Leif Garrett!! 😂❤
Jon Bon Jovi was around 24 when this song came out. Hair bands were it back in the 80s..hair, tight pants, rockin..so many pretty boys to crush on❤❤
Man, you really need to do Bon Jovi 1989 MTV music awards performance. It kicked off and proved how awesome Unplugged could be and helped make MTV Unplugged become a successful thing proving acoustic performances of rock songs could be awesome. the performance starts with this song and morphs into Wanted Dead Or Alive
That was incredible. I still watch it to this day.
Yes please!
Richie Sambora ( guitarist) was always my crush ❤ Love Bon Jovi so many bangers. Wanted dead or alive, Blaze of glory, always, I'll be there for you. bed of roses to name a few. Great reaction and Peace out ✌️ ☮️ 🙏
You left out You Give Love A Bad Name 🙂
Bad medicine too 😄
Same! I was a Richie gal ;)
This dropped and the world went crazy , 20 million sales later and their next tour was in 60-70,00 capacity arenas , back in the day when you physically had to go to a record store and buy your album , these were great days indeed . .. Tommy and Gina are referenced in later tunes , definitely worth checking out more Bon Jovi . Bad Medicine , You give love a bad name , It's my life , Have a nice day , all great tunes
They were young, this was the 80s. Next, Wanted Dead Or Alive, official video.
Greatest talk box performance was Peter Frampton's "Do You Feel Like We Do"!!!!🎶🎼🎵
Im a 55 year old woman and I first saw Bon Jovi live in 1987, I've now seen them a total of 48 times (not a lot compared to many) but their energy on stage is as electric now as it was then. Long may they reign supreme 🤘🤘
I saw them in 87 too, in Sydney I was 11, they were awesome.
You dont have to tell me!! Now you know what brought all us ladies to the yard
😂😂😂
Bon Jovi is freaking awesome live. I've seen him twice in concert.
Some of his Best..."Bed of Roses", "Wanted Dead or Alive", "It's My Life", "This Ain't No Love Story", "You Give Love a Bad Name"...& I could keep going!!!!!
I forgot "Blaze of Glory"
Me too.
Im 63 now. I remember when this album came out and watching the videos on MTV. My friends and I were all in love with Jon. He was beautiful then and still is. He's still married to his high school sweetheart. Jon is very generous and gives back to less fortunate. Check out his Soul Foundation and Soul Kitchen.
I just love those beautiful smiles in 80’s music videos they look like they are having the funnest time of their lives
Man, you couldn't go five minutes on the radio without Bon Jovi in the mid-80s. I'm a classic/hard rock guy & most of us said we didn't like the "pop rock", but we didn't turn the dial ..its good rock-n-roll. You are spot on BP, the chicks loved these guys, bonus for us when we had any of their songs on! So many memories cruisin the strip during the weekends, just jammin to great music. (You mentioned the talk box, if you've not done so you gotta check out Peter Frampton's "Do You Feel Like I Do"...the live version from his Frampton Comes Alive concert!!!😎🔥🤘
This was my teenagehood! Bon Jovi encapsulates the 80s!! My senior class song was "Never Say Goodbye" ... so much amazing and timeless music came out of the 80s. I feel so lucky that I grew up during that time period!
Never say goodbye is in my opinion one of their best, even though I loved almost every song they did.
I saw these guys in 1989, pregnant with my 4th child! What a show!!!!! He flew around like that when I saw them! Those were the days when the joints just kept rolling down the row across the aisle and they kept coming and coming! I sadly had to just pass them on to my husband at this concert...lol...Jon Bon Jovi is the real deal, a real humanitarian, a genuine human being! Peter Frampton = talk back classic!
That’s exactly what he looked like when I remember this dropping. It was everywhere and I still love this!!!!
BP you nailed it. Bro I’ve seen Bon Jovi a lot in the 80’s. At these concerts, women out numbered us dudes almost 10-1. He was the best at being great looking, perfect hair, etc. Bon Jovi cut his hair when Grunge started. By 1995 he said he didn’t want to be known just for his hair!! True story. That’s why at first it may have thrown you off. His first album he was just 19. The rest is history. Please go back and play all his 80’s stuff. I graduated in 87’. His look was all the women wanted him and most guys wish they were him. Millions sold, unreal concerts. 🤘🏻💯🇺🇸
I thought he cut his hair for his role in the movie U-571.
Guys like that made life worth living.
I went and saw Bon Jovi in Starkville, Mississippi in 1986. Cinderella opened up for them. It was one of the best concerts I ever attended! I loved the "Hair Bands" growing up!
I saw them the following night in Biloxi!! Such a great show - packed like sardines in front of the stage and sweating til you could wring out your clothes. What a great time to be 17!
I saw Bon Jovi live at Joe Louis Arena in 1989 and their opening act was Skid Row. I saw them twice that year.
Me too! One night in Pensacola, FL, and then next night in Tallahassee! Back in the day when I could go 48 hrs with no sleep and not turn into a zombie. Sigh.
Love this song and adore Bon Jovi; sometimes it's awesome to be old enough to have seen these classics perform live!!
This was one of my favorite songs growing up. I love it. Thanks for taking me back to my childhood B.P..
Whaaaaat WHAT!!!!!
The year was 1987, my family took a little road trip/vacation to New Hampshire up north to see the mountains. I was 8 years old. One of the things my mom and dad loved doing on road trips was finding a candy store. We’d all go in and the family (we didn’t have much money) would share a white paper bag full of different treats. My dad that trip took some fudge back to the hotel. On the drive back, he took out his pocket knife and cut 5 even slices of the fudge for us all to try. He placed the knife back into the paper bag until we got back to the hotel. On the drive, this song was playing on the tape deck.
Back at the hotel my dad used one of the hotel towels to clean his fudgey knife off. As we were all getting into our pajamas, my dad says to my mom. The hotel maids are going to see this towel tomorrow and say “Hey Wanda, LOOK, there’s SHIT on this towel!”
Oh how we all laughed as we went to bed. My mom and dad were really cool parents who were very much in love. Almost 30 years later, this song reminds me of that trip, the song remains the same. Unfortunately my mom and Dad got divorced along the way and our tight family was never the same…..
In 2010, these guys were my first real rock concert, AND THIS SONG WAS INSANE TO HEAR LIVE! Jon Bon Jovi is one of the greats in terms of frontmen, and is easily one of the humblest rockers you will ever meet. He and his mates grew up in a poor, working class New Jersey city, and has seen hard lives first hand. As a result, Jon has donated almost 15% of Bon Jovi's earnings to Habitat for Humanity. He is a true philanthropist and a true heart. You want a song that celebrates that AND is a kicking rock-country song? Watch "Who Says You Can't Go Home?", a song that donates all profits to Habitat for Humanity
I remember crying when Bon Jovi cut his hair!!! lol Also, he used to sneak into Nashville and sit in the back of some small bar and take notes!
🤣🤣🤣
I was so happy when he did. I used to try to picture all the big hair long haired guys with short hair to figure out if they were cute. I was 12 when this album came out but was crushing hard on JBJ.
@@tsblonde510 Yes JBJ and Steve Perry!
I've loved Bon Jovi since I was a teen! (I'm 45) I love your every reaction, how deep you dive into them in so many ways! Love from Sweden
First, the hair the clothes..iconic. In every era, the artist pushed envelopes and then it became a mainstream way to dress.
Women...Jon married his high school girlfriend in 1989 when he was 27. They are still married. In his documentary, he talks about the other women but came back and married his girlfriend who l8ved him before he was a Rock God. That lovev1 story makes him even more attractive-
There was a time when we were able to be close to the band, and they didn't have to worry about things being thrown at them. They didn't want Jon to let out that he was married but he was so sweet and humble it really didn't matter. Richie was gorg also!! Loved Bon Jovi
Nazareth - Hair of the Dog released in 1975, used the talk box
I just watched your reaction....I saw this concert live back in Jr. High School. It was AMAZING ‼️‼️‼️ The flying over the crowd..... EPIC !!!! Saw them again in High School and that concert was amazing as well !!! And yes, Jon Bon Jovi was in his 20's in this. ❤
I've seen them in concert 5 times and they are awesome in concert!!!!!! Love them!!!! And yes the hair... it was the 80s!!!
I'm glad you mentioned the talk box. Peter Frampton invented it. He's an underrated guitarist. BON JOVI ROCKED IT.
Bob Heill in vented the Talkbox which was first used by Peter Drake who introduced it to Peter Frampton.
ruclips.net/video/_R9an8AU3No/видео.html
I'd Love to be Richie's talk box. Hehe. Lol.
Peter Frampton did not invent the talkbox, Pete Drake introduced Frampton to it when both were recording for George Harrissons "All things must pass", Pete Drake used it since the 60's with his pedal steel
Saw them 3 times in concert back in the day.
Incredible shows.
Check out Wanted Dead or Alive. No body pays guitar like Richie Sambora!
Went to slippery when wet concert. So so fun!!
Thing about Bon Jovi is they are so joyful. It’s palpable and infectious, especially live
Bon Jovi are the only band in history to have 3 videos reach a billion views on RUclips from the 80's, 90's and 2000's, you have now reacted to 2 of them so next up should be "Always", it's a really great song!
You are so correct there, BP!! At 70, I can look back on my own music history. Each one brings it's own memories of the times I had in my life when I was down and out and music always saved my sad butt. Now I get to see the reaction of you young ones to the stuff that I grew up listening to. I love your facial features Black!!! Brings back the youth in me. Thank you so much!!!
The song is from 86. The Hair Band Days. He is now 62. Yes, this song is still as good as when it was first released. Keep them coming.
My youth, I went to all the concerts when he was in my hometown of Munich/Germany. My favorite was always the song Wanted Dead Or Alive... the guitar riff... I love it!
I Remember When this song 1st came out back in 1986 and I was hooked on it!!!
Livin' On A Prayer is one of those greatest of all time songs that is also 100% a feel good song. "Take my hand, and we'll make it I swear." I mean how could that lyric be anymore inspirational.
1986...he was about 24. I went to this concert in Albuquerque...it was my first concert. I was 16...definitely one of those 'best times'
this show live was AMAZING! they play to everyone not just the front rows. at their next concert they had a giant catwalk that came down and walked to the very back of the arena. seen em twice. LOVE THEM LIVE!
This tour was my first concert when I was 12 yo. back in 88. I thought they were the greatest thing ever when they went flying over the crowd, lol. Still one of my favorite bands. Great reaction!! 😊
Their concerts were the best time!! Singing every word to every song, so many memories. Love your reactions!
Bob Jovi was my aunts favorite band and we couldn’t go anywhere without her playing and singing all of Bon Jovi’s songs. The last song I heard her playing was Blaze of Glory. She passed away a couple of weeks later. John Bon Jovi was around 24 when Living on a Prayer came out.
I had such a crush on him when this came out lol... hey, BP you might check out a band called One Republic... they have so many hits. One of my favorites is called "Stop and Stare".. the older I get the more the words mean to me, it's deep.
One more suggestion... "Never is a Promise" by Fiona Apple... the live version.. she wrote the song at 16, she plays it live when she was 19... just incredible.
I’m telling ya the 80s was the best time to be a teenager! As much as I hate getting old I wouldn’t change a thing! All my teen years were in the 80s and everything was great! My generation had the best of everything!
Absolutely!
Get off...the 70s were everything!
As a Jersey girl this was our anthem, still gets played to this day when we going down the shore, for all you not native to Jersey that means going to the beach 😄😉
The album Slippery When Wet by Bon Jovi was my first rock cassette tape. I had a 1984 Pontiac sunbird yeah baby! It was new when I bought it.😂🤣
I had a friend with a Pontiac Sunbird!! Were we friends!!!!😂
The cassette? 😆
@@alexanderwarby-cooper3549 back in the day instead of having CD players in your car you had cassette tapes. 😂
@@dinaarmymom9145 I still do 😳👀
Bon Jovi is my all time favorite. I saw this show live. His entire Blaze of Glory soundtrack is amazing. Great lyrics. These Days album is so good. Stick to Your Guns. Blood on Blood. So many greats!
So hyped for another BP reaction to probably my all time favorite band!!!
Jon married his high school sweetheart, and they are still married even though he knew his appeal to his female fan base. The song that got him started pre-Bon Jovi band (later released by the band) was "Runaway." Jon said he hated the video for that and didn't like having to do MTV videos where they had to lip synch.
Oh man - I could tell you so much about this group of all-stars. Not just nostalgia. Been there every step of the way while they keep on rockin' (saddened by the leaving of Richie, of course, but maybe a reunion in the future?)
'you live for the fight when that's all you've got' - such powerful lyrics
This has been one of my favourite songs since it was released. You Give Love a Bad Name, Blaze of Glory, Wanted Dead or Alive, Lay Your Hands on Me are all amazing songs from the 80s and Keepthe Faith, Bed of Roses from early 90s, all must listens.
Was the 80's big hair, tight pants, ear rings and fringed jackets 😂
Absolutely 😂
And eyeliner. I never had any use for a man who couldn't rock some kohl on his eyes. I used to have a saying - "A man can never wear his hair too long or his pants too tight." Still true.
Truth
Graduated high school in 89. We all had hair envy. lol. Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, Warrant, White Lion, Cinderella. So many more.
I saw them in their prime at Cincinnati Gardens with 3 other girlfriends. Too awesome! "Dead or Alive" was their finale. We were standing on our seats practically the whole time dancing! This song brought the house down. Such memories! ❤
I have followed many reactors and you are by far my favourite! Your reaction to our Aussie icons is awesome 😊
Believe me the time goes faster than you could ever imagine. Good stuff.
Watching this video again I can see why I love black leather fringe jackets and cowboy boots…and at 52 I’m not afraid to rock them…🤣 I loved Bon Jovi as a teen and still appreciate his music today…Check out “Lay Your Hands on Me”….it is exactly what a Bon Jovi concert was like…
Such a great band. Living on a Prayer, You Give Love A Bad Name, honestly the whole Slippery When Wet album is 🔥 🔥🔥.
I saw them in concert when I was 20 - we had front row seats (granted no one was sitting) - he reached out and grabbed my hand. I just about died and swore I would never wash that hand lol - They were one of my very favorite groups and still are
I was a mad female fan. My daughter was in high school and I heard her playing this great music. She said it was Bon Jovi. My two children and I saw them in concert at least six times. They were always excellent. I was still slim and trim too. Woo hoo! You just had to dance and sing along. Hot damn! 💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥
It's been in my top ten all time songs from the very first time I ever heard it. When they hit the chorus everyone sings along. Great driving song on a trip. I can play it like ten times in a row and sing along with the chorus. Keeps you awake on a long trip. Same for Radar Love.
This is the "Tommy and Gina" that Jon sang about in "It's My Life".
You darned right it was a great concert! Lol 😆 Bon Jovi Slippery When Wet tour with Cinderella opening for them. It was the first Rock concert for me and my sister. We were in the nosebleed section, but didn't care. The funny thing was that our Mom, who had also become a Bon Jovi fan, didn't buy a ticket and decided after dropping us off to see if there were any tickets left unclaimed. There were some and she got in on a free, unclaimed ticket, which landed her right in front of the platform Jon flew to during this song. She said she tried to wave at us to come down. All 3 of us talked about that concert forever. Mom's now in advanced stages of dementia, but she loved any Bon Jovi song all these years and sometimes still does.
Most of Bon Jovi's songs are uplifting. They're about love and faith. There's a ton of great songs by Bon Jovi. I'd die for you,raise your hands,lay your hands on me,bad medicine,born to be my baby,I'll be there for you,keep the faith,i'll sleep when I'm dead,blame it on the love of rock and roll,in these arms,always,one wild night,everyday,bounce,have a nice day, and Blaze of glory which was originally a jon bon Jovi song.
Impossible not to sing along!
This song is played at my family reunion every year I've got videos of the family dancing to it! I love Bon Jovi especially his song with Jennifer Nettles Who says you can't go home
This was my first concert. Maybe 16 years old. Cinderella opening for Bon Jovi New Years Eve in the Meadowlands NJ. 16th row floor and he flew right over my head. Great introduction to live music.
Peter Frampton used the talk box. You should listen to - Do You Feel Like We Do, I think from the early to mid 70's on the Midnight Special.
He just did that reaction 3 days ago....It's on his channel! 😊
richie sambora is on the talk box.he wrote the music jon wrote the lyrics.
this was the first song/video i heard of from bon jovi in my early teens in the uk.
it was then that i knew i fancied jon and still do!
esp since he turned out to be such a nice guy with solid head on his shoulders.so glad he's still here and didn't pass from any of the usual silly things rock stars do.
yes i;m sure they had plenty of fans after them but jon had his high school sweetheart dorothea.
they have 4 grown kids.one of his sons jake just got married to brit millie bobby brown from stranger things.
I was 18 when this came out. Loved the 80's!!!!!!❤
U hit it on the head…. watching HISTORY ❤🙏🏼🎉
You need to add Radar Love by Golden Earring to your driving list.. one if the best road songs...Bon Jove always rocks!
The only rock band I saw in concert. He’s a beautiful man. ❤
I believe Jon was 24. Bon Jovi -" It's My Life" - Like Frankie said, "I did it my way" a reference to Old Blue Eyes.
I love that I got to listen to these guys when it was all new and we'd never heard anything like this before. Melbourne Australia1980s concerts, Bon Jovi, Motley Crue, Poison, Warrant, Alice Cooper, Billy Idol, David Bowie, Michael Jackson, Meatloaf, ACDC, so so many more. What a time to be alive for music.
They were one of the best concerts I’ve ever seen live, them and AC/DC and Van Halen!
Jon is 1 year and 6 days older than me. His first album came out when he was 21 - 1984. I was a junior in college. Perfect timing! Yup, he was just the way we liked the guys then, long hair & tight pants! Love this song! I wish I'd seen him in person back then. He still looks great, and he's 🎉🎉🎉a very humble and kind person!
Trivia - Jon has done quite a bit of acting. In particular, he was on Ally McBeal as her love interest. OMG! I lived through her. He's such a great talent, and SO handsome. Thanks for the review. ❤ 🎉
Believe it or not, the talk box was invented in the 1930s. The first I heard it was Peter Frampton's "Do you feel like we do?" I saw Robert Troutman in an interview saying he liked the effect and decided to use it in his music. I think he used it in more of his music than Frampton. And, of course, "California Lovin." One of my absolute favs!!
The1Mommalau,
Yeah, I thought it was Peter that brought the talk box into the limelight, made him stand out!
Frampton Comes Alive, great album, played it to death,lol.
Peter Frampton in his in his 1976 album, "Frampton Comes Alive!" used the Talk Box 10 years before Bob Jovi.
His parents were in the navy, and his dad a hairdresser, gave him the famous haircut. He does a lot of charity work, and has a great marriege mate, he loves her a lot.
Classic song! I grew up in the 80s watching these rock stars, and to this day, it is hard to comprehend what that must have been like. Top of the world I guess...
I saw it live when I was 16. I'll never forget it. They ROCKED!
