- Here is one rare vid of the band. The only video I have seen where it is clearly shown that Jon is singing the chorus. The key change at the end was not done here.
New: There are audio clips of the band performing this live on youtube where Jon does sing the chorus and the key change, so bootlegs of their "pre vocal strain/steroid shots" days on the SWW tour do exist.
The band should release a DVD of one of their 80's shows, dedicated to all their new fans who missed these amazing times...
They really should your a super fan 😀
@@FaZe-StyL TRUEEEE!!!!!!!!!!1
I'm not gonna disagree, but Jon sang off key quite a bit in the 80's, even on the albums. He sings a lot more on key today than he ever has, even if his voice is deeper. But, to your point, I wasn't born until the 90's and they are my all time favorite band, I'd love a full DVD of an 80's concert, just for the experience of seeing it
@@trashdoc16 He most definitely does not sing more in key these days. It's very, very sad, actually.
Couldnt agree more!
FINALLY THE ORIGINAL KEY, LIVE!!
+Nilam HS have you noticed that bon jovi uses the same mic stand for everything
Minesizegaming Yes I've noticed but last time in Jakarta I didn't see he used that but wasn't so sure either I might've seen it wrong
It's like he has a bond with that mic stand
Nilam HS Dave's voice is deep. but ticos is deeper
All you had to do was follow the damn train CJ! What he mean is that most of new live videos are not on the original note.
The song that made this band a legend.
First it was You give love a bad name then this ^_^
@@cyrinalitten8593 i think runaway was before all
This song cemented their Legacy. Credits to their 1st hits but this song is the most recognizable when you hear the name Bon Jovi.
Also the song that killed Jon Bon Jovi’s voice
@@giveup6309 agree
This is their best performance of this song - the only one that Bon Jovi sang the whole chorus.
He didn't even try to touch the last two times. It was all David
He let the audience sing the highest key ...
@@rafaelgutierrezparis1441 Yes, after the key change at the end. However there is a bootleg I found during the past 16 years where he actually nails the whole song, and even a half-tone higher.
@@eyeamserious7900 Last two times after the key change?
Hard to hit those notes in that song every night after you do about two dozen other ones just like it. He had a killer voice
So true
Italian ancestry they have a great singing history..
He avoided singing the last chorus 🤦♂️
@@mitsurikanroji9548 He was not a fan of the song's key change, believing it made him sound feminine.
Na verdade ele matou a própria voz 😅
This is how I remember Bon Jovi. I saw them in the Fall of 1986. I just wouldn't want to see them 2023-24. They were opening for 38 Special. Rock on 🤘✌️❤️🌼
what your favorite album?
I do not believe Bon Jovi will ever tour again. The Hulu documentary painted unlikely possibility.
I was born in 1985. I had a few older sisters. BON JOVI were like a mythical band. Everything about them was too cool
To even understand. Their music videos were incredible. What an awesome time to be a rock star. Runaway was my favorite.
how does he make it look absolutely effortless especially when singing the high long notes!!?? he is smiling while singing, like jeez man!! what a talent
Acting and smiling, in reality it’s actually straining his voice hard. It’s just how he shouts the “oh” and “Woah-oh” part, very heavy and chesty and belting it out. He was into being an entertainer and that’s what makes his live stuff from the early day so hype and fun but because he was an entertainer and not focusing on his vocal health due to his rough vocal techniques, his voice quality went down through the first couple of years resulting in him not being able to do the full livin on a prayer chorus after 1987-1988.
He couldn’t do it prior to that either. He only hit it in the studio with crazy reverb, multiple tracks & the ability to have as many takes as you want to sing it. Doesn’t take away from his talent cause it’s a bitch to sing for any male after puberty lol! It’s true though..
@@thetruth72667 your saying he couldn't do it, but by god he is hitting LIVE here!
@@Silver_Cowboy Tryin to sing it & singing it are not the same thing! He is tremendously out of tune & does not even attempt to sing "living on a....." In the last chorus here. So like I said, he could not sing it. That's why they changed how they played it.
@@thetruth72667 you"re wrong
100% real carajo! Uno de los pocos videos donde se puede notar a la perfeccion que no usaron playback para nada. La mejor tocada de ese tema!
Checa el 3:23, creo que sí es playback en algunas ocasiones
Cero playback, cero auto tune, excelente bon Jovi es entendible que no se logren las notas altas de living on a prayer
@AgusDoymer _ en el estudio estás relajado, tenés descanso, escuchar y volver a corregir algo que quieras potenciar y demás, cantar en vivo sale como sale en el momento que se está viviendo
Great Jon's voice and great songs!
finally he sang live in high note part....good job
Hay algunos vídeos donde la canta el problema es que de tantos conciertos que dió se fue desgastando su voz pero era increíble
@@antoniomares5732 a lot in 1993 too
Did he tho? You don’t see him sing the high part the first time it comes on the key change and the following times he’s clearly not singing it.
@@Dadaadad268 he did, you can hear it clear here that he did, theres 0 playback here, he didnt sing the key change tho.
@@nick-pc8md agreed there’s no playback. The ‘high’ part referred to I assumed was the key change as this has the highest notes - ‘woah .. living on a prayer’.. which Jon isn’t singing. Someone is tho and it’s pretty awesome. Maybe it’s the keyboard player. I know Richie sings the high harmonies but you can see he’s not singing this part either.
actually the high notes is really painful to sing...
Mage Monstre I know the high notes are hard to hit there not painful for its just that it's impossible to hit the high notes for me because I screamed so loud I damaged my voice.
I think the Woah~ parts are the duet by Jon and David Bryan not just by Jon
@STYLE 69 wow you're such a big shot
They are easy for me
Mage Monstre they are actually not painful if you hit them the right way.
I'm lovin the hair. Lets bring back that style.
i’ll bring back hairmetal/hard rock bro)
Jesus, he's even sharp in parts!
Pushed it to the limit
In that time, Jon sang even better than the studio version! Amazing!
You're joking, right? This was nowhere near the studio version.
@@stunningcactus978 Fr. This is legit one of the three RUclips videos where you can see and hear him clearly singing the song without backing tracks, playback... His voice sounds "boyish" , really fresh and young here. If you look up videos from 1987, you can clearly hear the change and maturity in his voice cus of the steroids. To confess, I love this band, this isn't any hate orientated comment, just facts. JBJ was a really bad live singer, a great artist and frontmen, put on a show for you, that's for sure, but vocal technique wise, really bad and untrained.
@@nosmoking9681 He sounds completely different from 92 onwards
@@caleb_sousa absolutely.
I'd love to see Alec and Richie back with the gang
I'm too!
All you had to do was follow the damn train CJ! Really?????
Unfortunately that won't happen with Alec now. :(
@@jillb5353yeah he’s dead
Fuck today's music. I wish I lived in the 80's.
I did, awesome buddy!
Sin dudas... Una de las bandas de rock que siguen cosechando éxitos. La mejor época 80s 90s
Gracias Jon Bon Jovi
best live performance ever by any band for any song gem thank u for sharing
This is the best version by far
He doesn’t sing any of the high notes in the key change. Is this really the best there is?
Glad to have seen them in the 80s during this time. It was AWESOME!!!
Those were tye days! So glad I was there for it!
This is one of the best bon jovi songs! ive learned all of their songs on guitar!
and people think axl rose's voice changed...
+TheCritic Axl rose voice has changed too far... that's too bad
+TheCritic axl rose is back now !
@@2000daffa he can still sing well but he won't lol
Axl still has good years
06,2010,2016
Bon Jovi has been ass since 2009
@@bigtommy9715 after 2013 his voice its not pretty great anymore but I don't care about that
Damn he did that chorus so well. Shame he cant do it or wont anymore.
The key change is done here, however Alec, Richie and Jon don't sing it, it's only David, the keyboardist.
Butter Boy Alec sings in chorus of Runaway and him sings High Notes too!
Alec and David have similar and normal timbres to make some confusions why the two normally sing together but there is a sacrifice someone will have to do something simpler in their instruments to be able to sing in high notes and well tuned and without trampling other voices of the band That's why Alec has always varied his bass lines. Richie also notes a bit more serious about the two but higher than Jon. And now this year when I watched a show of the current bon jovi I missed the voices of Alec and Richie even more than in 2016 I watched a Sambora show and it was spectacular! And both of them are missing out on the band in terms of backing vocals and charisma with the audience.

I saw them around 1986, 18 yo. My name is Gina. They played Riverside 3 night in a row. Every night JBJ would start this song, "This goes out to Gina, Gina Baby"! My sister gor me backstage and I got some awesome pics! Great memories.
I have a friend named Tommy. I wanna take him to a Bon Jovi concert and introduce him to JBJ
RIP Alec🎸😥
this probly wasnt a full concert, just like a couple songs on a televised show, so JBJ was able to hurl his voice into it all... cept for the post guitar solo which is almost a studio-only register... but he did it a if times in the old days. For years he hands off the refrain to the audience, but hey, JOVI rocks!!
He's singing the key change, he's just not singing the highest notes of it (Wooo, Ohhhh. Livin' On A Prayer.)
Looks to be Mr. David Bryan Rashbaum
whenever I struggle to sing this tune, I come back to this music video to reference Jon
watching it only gets me feeling that I can't sing it as good as or better than him😅
Best live livin on a prayer
de las mejores versiones del livin, espectacular!!!
well yeah singing that chorus TRULY like here and the studio version would have been too much pain to endure to just keep doing it, I mean sure it sounds and looks badass but yeah i totally get why he stopped doing it, it just looks painful.
Paul Stanley could nail that in his sleep.
@@coldacre Paul Stanley is a decent singer tbf.
@@coldacre Paul is talented in his own way but no way could he sing this. JBJ could never sing the studio version either
Saw it - it's the longest one I've found on Tube! To be specific however, he ascended to a higher note after 10s..so it was really a 10s note BUT it was still 13s of two notes sung without a break in between...so that's still incredible! Probably even harder to do than a single note for 13s.
Yeah man that is harder and even more impressive i feel, the way he went higher, couldnt believe it when i saw it. Looking forward to the concerts this year.
One of the best song and none can beat that :)
Yep, must of been reason he got to sound track for young guns movies
ive never seen this video before! amazing quality and sound!!!!
Living On A Prayer is my all time favorite song, and Bon Jovi my all time favorite band. Of course I adore Jon. I always have. I always will! Thanks for posting this one!!
Love bon Jovi. My forever band for life. 💋💋💋♥️♥️
He was more than capable of singing it now and again on the jersey tour anyway, not every night of course, the mans human. You still into bon jovi? cause some of jons best vocal performances have been of recent years, better than a lot of 80s stuff. Have you seen him holding a 14 second note on hallelujah from the hope concert a couple of weeks ago? Very powerful
it's really a rare version, but still love them!!
Damn I used to have this on VHS that I recorded off MTV. I can't believe it was 25 years ago,I haven't seen this for probably 20 years. *adds to favorites*
yeah so happy to have seen this. bonjovi really got the power to his musics
I believe this was performed just before the album drop. They were testing out their new songs in the local clubs.. man I wish I could go see this haha. Awesome !!!
It is a small 30 second video from the hope concert that jon bon jovi appeared at a few weeks ago alongside southside johnny and others. It shows the end of hallelujah with jon doing the big vocal bits. Its on youtube man, check it out, its incredible, such control.
Alec played his bass well in this video...
Yeah! he's sing less! more bass!
オリジナルキーで歌ってる!
永久保存版。
Love the old stuff. I wish they still sounded like that 🙉.
Nadie con esos registros. Así Jhon ya no llegue , El es la.leyenda de esos coros . Mi banda favorita
Thanks for posting this. I was looking everywhere for just this - him actually hitting that B-C notes in the chorus.
this is gold, please don't remove this.
yep seen that one too - that's the performance that they used to air on the MTV awards show that year. His voice was so obviously shot in this performance and the "sample" or "backing track" is so clear.
Love the video!! Thanks for upload! I love Bon Jovi sooo much and this is one of their greatest performances I think. Those were the times, God I wish I was alive then and I could go on their concerts :(
He sings the key change (last ref.) In hannover, dortmund, and in a few performances in 1986
bradford too
Hannover sounds the closest to the the record version
And the only one he sings all of it
Hey,
This song does feature the keychange for the last chorus. I'm a musician myself & I love this song.
Anyways, to give you some more information 'bout this song, actually up from the 1988 New Yersey tour this song (and some others) are played with samples for the chorus & the take out that Jon makes before the solo.
audio estereo y en hd buen video a si eran los verdaderos rockeros y no como los monses de ahora
best live ever
could he ever do the "whoo-ooh living on a prayer" after the key change?
this is 1986, im thinking if he couldn't do it here, could he ever?
mainlymusicman he did but only in The beginning of the slippery tour.He did it in Dortmund in 1986 and I cant remember The other ones but I heard a few until his voice was damaged.And I quess he did it in 1993 once ,not The whole chorus though but It showed he was still able to hit that note.
He did it multiple times in the European tour of 1986, in Bradford, Dortmund ,Stockholm ,those are off the top of my head. In 1993, he only sung the regular choruses before the key change, and there is one performance in 1995, where he sings one of the screams after the key change
@@zhelyazkopetkov8211 Osaka 1995 he tried but failed i guess.
@@stoker7253 he hit the note though
Listen city hall, 1986
Wow - what passion. Pure rock n roll!!! Bon Jovi per sempre!!!
You're being unfair. You can't compare Jon to any of those musicians, except for Steve Tyler. The rest of them don't sing very difficult songs or have in fact lost it, like Axel Rose. I agree Jon lost his voice over the years, but I am glad he continues to tour and sing those old Hard Rock songs along with Sambora (that one being a hell of a singer still)
best performance of this song
the song that ruins jon's voice...
Renato Miranda but it maked them the band we love
Renato Miranda a song that rock the world
...Totally worth it!
IT SOUNDS GOOD WHO CARES LOL
Sadly it is.
John such (bass)recently just passed in his home in south Carolina..
I doubt that man, he still has the same vocal techniques that he had before, so holding notes is no suprise for me. The longest I've timed from him however, was when he did "shout" at wembley, 1993 - and it wasn't 14 seconds. I have seen several ones of halleluja, and he's great im them, but i don't remember any 14s notes, and these are quite noticeable b/c 10s alone seems like a LONG note, nevermind 14. But I'll check it out dude.
A 12 years old comment.
Man now his condition is even worst
i watched all the bands thrash and glam metal bands, and bon jovi.. i just loved it the 80's is sooo great not just like todays kid of musica.. i love these years .. but im born in 1987 .. i admit these years rock
Was definetely fancy back in the 70's and the 80's when Peter Frampton used it, it was awesome.
Still is very fancy you don't hear it much anymore..
Now it's all Rap you dont hear bands making much rock anymore like in the 80's AC/DC recently came out with a new album it takes us back to this music (:
Who is holding the crazy high note after changing the key??? ALEC??
+Jon and Richie together again David (: That's the pitch Jon hit in the studios.
Old Souled Hippie So…to the conclusion, David is the highest note in bon jovi lol
Jon and Richie together again In performances, yes.
Actually Alec was the highest of them.
David is singing alone
Amazing voice
@Pricela93 There's no shame in not singing the key change either. Even today, it's not a matter of "can he hit it", of course he can. He did the original recording after his balls dropped, thus not much has changed in his voice since assuming he's kept it in shape (which he's jon bonjovi, of course he has). The determining factor of him singing it is how often he's singing at that time, tours and such. I don't care who you are, you can't sing your highest note every day. Thus he doesn't.
Yeah i consider myself too the same way, goin to see them again this summer. I got hold of this cassette tape from my mate years ago and it wasnt an official release from the band, was a bootleg, and had different songs on it from the new jersey sessions, also had live tracks from the tour and livin on a prayer was one, and he sang it live, very clear. I wish i still had it.
I love these guys. Made lots of people happy.
I was looking for the high note on the key change!
The time when Alec John Such was still there!
Seriously, for the time that was excellent editing.
Show me, and I'll stand corrected. As it is right now, I consider myself to be one of the most detailed fans that has heard EVERY performance available on youtube plus bootlegs - and I haven't found any.
wow ... only video i`ve seen where he is actually singing the choir ... cool ...
This is how it should be sung:)
+sanya aynas It is SO hard singing in this key all the time. To preserve voices like Jon's (which is a very unique voice), they usually tune down because it hurts singing that high. He can't hit the high notes anymore because of aging, cigarettes, and the 90s.
Ritchie sambora..💜💜
Yes, seen it - that was, like every other performance floating out there, a backing track. Listen carefully. The key changes were only done BEFORE his steroids in 1986, thus, after 86, no more key change.
01:12 love it how Richie switches and gets in there hard with his guitar. Also jon singing the chorus! Priceless.
2022, Jon vocals still raw at that time
Wouldn't be surprised if the energy and faith in this video of being successful was the song that made his career.
It's a rarity to see him actually sing the chorus and the song is not tuned down 1/2 step. The high C or C4 has always been out of his range and it shows here. He's screaming to hit the B3 and there is a lot of tension in his vocal chords. We can see why he spent so much of the 1986-87 tour with damaged vocal chords. The modulation on the last chorus to Bb major is insane and impossible for him to sing live. I wonder if the main writer of this song, Desmond Child, composed it this way?
U mean C5
lol
They had a sanyo special in 1988 new years. You can find it here on RUclips. Nobody buys DVD anymore.
i was born in the 80's but only a toddler when the tube was on, great video. wasn't the tube from newcastle, UK
@evodevo69 Just so you know during the keep the faith tour in 93, there were a few shows where Jon sang the 2nd chorus and part of the key change live in livin on a prayer, milan 93 and tacoma 93 are examples. Those videos are available on youtube. Just for anyone who thinks Jon could'nt sing any of the notes after SWW tour or NJ tour.
Singing live = respect
got a question : who are Tommy & Gina ? they are named in some songs
+mitch Ketcham oh thanks :)
+mitch Ketcham thats untrue. gina was Desmond Child's relative who worked in a place called Once Upon A Stove. and he invented Tommy but at first they were Johnny and Gina. then jon bon jovi changed the name Johnny to Tommy because his own name was Johnny (jon). Thats how Tommy and Gina were created.
Viva los buenos Rockeros de los años 70 y 80 Ole tus huevos Jon Von Jovi ❤
@evodevo69 Yeah i've heard those clips, they are insane. The circle tour has been brilliant, set lists have been amazing and jon's vocals have been great, these days in particular at the O2 was amazing along with something to believe in.
carajo, esto si era música, estos si eran hombres !
there is also the livin on a prayer demo where jon sings all the high parts in the chorus.
IMPRESSIVE!!!!!! Im from 91, wish I was from 71 :D DAMMIT
For some other good examples of samples used listen to live versions of Have a nice day & It's my life, which has not so much to do with the (high), but with the complexity of the backingvocals.
And if you listen to the demo of Prayer (found on the box-set) have you noticed how much is being sung by Richie?
Cheers,
Daniel
Was the key change at the end of the song playback, or they had someone singing it instead? Cause Richie wasn't, maybe David???
David
I remember seeing this on TV in the autumn of 86. Here in the UK they were not well known until the release of Slippery When Wet that year (although I remember seeing a bit about them in Kerrang! and a friend had bought their album 7800⁰ Fahrenheit on tape). By October 86 they were massive here. Very strong visual appeal and great songs.
Love this song
Yeah his technique is awesome, he's exceptional on hallelujah performances, the one im referring too is actually 13 seconds, my apologies, but still only 1 second short, its incredible. I see on your living in sin video you took the opinion of user DeAnOrOx, thats a gd call, he is one of my best friends, he is a pianist, i am a guitarist myself, we are both into the vocals in a big way.
