Been coming to this video on here for 11 years, since I was 17. Now I’m 28 and married and it just gets better and better. Always come to the comments and see a comment I remember from years ago. Love it.
@@pam4697 I've been great! I know you must be surprised to get a reply from me right? Well, i actually opened this account as my official chat account so i can have a little time for my fans and know how some of you feel about me and my songs precisely.
the last richie sambora moment in the band, and one of the best richie sambora moments of all time... there's no bon jovi without him, andnothing could change my mind... love you ric... thank you for the inspiration, thank you for everything....
Agreed. So sad Jon can't sing anymore. He gave it all for the fans. And sad Richie had to bow out of the band, he couldn't go on the way the machine was running. Richie and Jon are two musical martyrs. God bless 'em!
Hey Old Souled Hippie I agree with you 100% I am an old Vietnam Vet and went thru the drugs Crown Royal & Ice coke ruins it lol. Happy days to you and just keep on Trucking. Larry Its been a wild ride but my horse is getting slower & slower. FORT WORTH, TEXAS
Richie has the MSG audience in his hands. He was the backbone of Bon Jovi and wouldn't Jon like to have Richie's amazing voice now as his voice is gone.
@@stephanusjohannes422 when his recovery will be finished he will sound a lot better I believe. But I know a fantastic Coverband called Bounce from Germany and the leadsinger sounds Like Jon in Bon Jovi's biggest hits.
Not on a whole new level, but probably just on a different level. However, and for me, the original, Jon Bon Jovi's is still THE BEST and of course most iconic.
Underrated? So underrated that there's even a FENDER STRATOCASTER with his signature, man, FENDER wouldn't put it on one of their products if Richie Sambora wasn't a phenomenon on the 6 strings.
Tan cierto como la vida misma!! Lo peor es que no lo reconocerán mientras viva,y después se forraran con el merchandising de su obra.... reconocimiento ahora a quien corresponda por favor!!!!!😭😭😭😭
Charlotte Moreau I saw them live when Jon left stage Richie took the lead vocals for I’ll be there for you backed by David, and then they did in these arms with David on lead vocals and Richie backing. I’ve seen David do lead vocals on in these arms maybe 3 times in 20odd gigs
THIS...OMG, so true. Richie is amazing...better vocals, better musician, better writer...and, better looking, just sayin'. Yeah, Jon's ego is a big turn off for me.
Not close. Jon is a weak guitarist & pianist, plus his never-strong voice has been trash for decades now. His strengths were a runaway ego & the dumb luck to have a relative who ran a legendary recording studio. His “talent” should have him singing Hootie covers in South Shore bars. Richie, OTOH, could have played/sang with anyone.
@@canoone1975to rough opinion. For sure he was good leader, businessman and pretty wise doing decisions always thinking twice or more... I was disappointed going for the first concert 10 years ago, and there was no Riche :(
Ich glaube beide wussten was die aneinander hatten. Keiner kann den anderen ersetzen. Beide Künstler haben mich durch mein Leben begleitet. Ich liebe sie beide. Was sie geleistet haben ist unfassbar gut und überdauert. Sie sind bereits Legenden. Richis Auftritt war so emotional. Danke
Still thinking why people compare both Bon Jovi and Richie when both of them gave their best in every performance they had. Why can't we appreciate one without spitting on the other? Appreciate both of them, people. Anyway, I love your performanceee Richie! ❤️ I am one of your forever fans!
I love how he walks up & tips his hat. Just before he starts the crowd goes wild, they love to hear him sing. I think TICO needs to have some credit, he has played those drums for years & I have never seen him mentioned. He plays his ...... off. Here's to you "TICO", awesome job.
What can I say... Jon & Ritchie are the heart & soul of Bon Jovi... Jon is the heart that keeps the group beating ... But Ritchie is the Soul & Aura .. When he left the group is like the group was in a coma... Awakening is a miracle that what it needs.
GawdDAMN he sounds good!!!!!!!!!!! He truly stole the show. He’s as good a front man as Jon-and more musically talented. He could have carried this band with absolutely no problem had Jon not been around.
I have heard this song performed by Jon soooo many times, it's lovely but coming from Richie it is so much warmer, true, heart-melting. I am crying. I absolutely can not wrap my head around how can there be a bon jovi band without THE Richie Sambora.
There's no coincidence IBTFY or ITA weren't played on this tour. Nobody can sing those songs like Rich did (or still does as a solo act). Miss them together, though :(
Richie was the soul of Bon Jovi. Jon may be the front singer but Richie sings with more heart. What they had together was unique and I don't like Bon Jovi without Richie.
The best is after richie says sing it new york the 3 big guys 2 white one black screaming the lyrics along with richie, shows you music can move mountains god bless
Just think about it when richie has STRAINGER IN HIS TOWN en jon had BLAZE OF GLORY whos voice where noticed or gain much more?i like richie his a guitar god for me lts like his a pippen for jordan when there not in the same team hmnnn .........
This version is much better than the original in everything, even in the melody of the vocals, from things like these I realized that the true soul of Bon Jovi was him
My favorite part of soooo many of BJ songs is when I hear Richie voice doing back up vocals. His voice gives me chills. To hear him doing this is amazing. It's almost like a completely different song. Country feel to it. Absolutely love it !!!! Miss him.
The band is a band and will forever be bon Jovi. The bottom line is every one of them is talented all the backup players David is amazing Tico is amazing Jon bon Jovi is amazing. To pull a band together with a man named David x and still have the unbelievable following speaks volumes and they all sing volumes. As I said before Richie chose to lose the band never showed up never called Miss 88 shows and could have ruined hundreds of Korea's of all the Roadies so as much as I love him and I miss seeing him he did this to the band the band did not do this to him. So let's get real here Richie sambora split without any explanation
Видеоклипы
Richie sings like it's the last time he'll ever sing again - every time.
SRV would be proud
There is no Bon Jovi without Ritchie Sambora.
This is what it sounds like when you sing because you want to, not because you have to.
The most underrated guitarist on the planet
100 it’s so sad he is the best
@@hollycline2427
If Ritchie is the best please don't be aad. Be proud of having a person like him.
Was about to post the same.
Watching in 2024. This song is beautiful from beginning to end. Perfect.
David Bryan’s backup vocals so underrated!!
I love seeing Richie get his glory
Very rightfully words. No Richie , no Bon Jovi!!!
I d rather see Ritchie than bon jovi i think we have a blues gem here
Today's music will never even TOUCH these years in music history... The 80's were absolutely EPIC! 🎸
Bon jovi is Never bon jovi without Sambora!! Too bad, jon boy!! 🤑💥
I’ve Never seen this I’m a 55 year old man and this was so good I literally cried.
RIght there with you - incredible performance
Jon is "Mr. Perfection" when he's singing, Richie is "Mr.Old deep Soul" when he's singing - it shivers...every single time❤️❤️❤️
This is actually better than the original version.
Been coming to this video on here for 11 years, since I was 17. Now I’m 28 and married and it just gets better and better. Always come to the comments and see a comment I remember from years ago. Love it.
Me too. I can't stay away. Such a magical performance.
Richie has a beautiful voice and is an amazing gutarist.
No phones.. Just enjoying the moment.!!! .. Sambora at his best... Irreplaceable forever!
I was so blessed I got to see Ritchie perform with Bon Jovi.
This is prolly the best version of this song and it's ironic that Jon isn't singing. Sambora is so talented and charismatic.
Richie wrote it. That's why he's singing it.
Just as he wrote Wanted Dead or Alive...
Agreed 💯...best ever hands down. 🤍❤🇨🇦✌
Agree, actually think better than Bon Jovi... 💯
@@bradleycatlow5127 he sang awesome in wanted dead or alive💯
I agree 👍 💯
I've seen Bon Jovi in concert 3 times with Richie Sambora, and I will never see them again until Richie Sambora decides to return. Just not the same!
Another band done for like many before over petty differences one wanting to outshine another
Best version ever❤
Richie sings his heart out. He feels the sing and it conveys over to the crowd. You can feel it oozing out of him. He is a complete package.
Agree love this wow
❤

Have you heard his performance from 1991?

@@natesepnefski yes. I’ll be there Ritchie live 1991. From his solo tour
@@TheKoopaKings I think I found it
Wow!
One of greatest moments in the bands history this footage. Take a bow Mr. Sambora 👏👏👏
Please come back Sambora, we miss you in every way
Richie.....your true fans will always be there for you❤ . This always brings a smile! Such a great performance!!!
I CAN'T help but watch and listen to this song 🎵 with Richie! He's such an amazing amazing man talented man in
😂 I just love Richie's talent. Who else do you know that can sing this way and play a guitar as bad a$$ as Richie can?
Bon Jovi needs Richie Sambora badly man. He needs his pal back on stage with him.
I'm already 62 years old but still I love that songs of jon bon jovi.also Richie sambora.their chemistry is really amazing.
Yes it takes all to make it good
Richie is a blues man at heart
Richie's absence is noticed severely at every single Bon Jovi show.
the last richie sambora moment in the band, and one of the best richie sambora moments of all time... there's no bon jovi without him, andnothing could change my mind... love you ric... thank you for the inspiration, thank you for everything....
*Underrated Guitar Player!*
I love the way he sing
Bon Jovi will NEVER be the same without Richie xxx
true
Richie will NEVER be the same without Bon Jovi
frozen count Richie did 2 solo album that are amazing .I personally think he a better singer then jon
amazing. but not be same when he was in a band (bon jovi)
Becky Hebb love ya xxx
Total stand up man who does the right thing. He was the talent behind the band. They went down hill since he left.
a new Richie Soul-bora version of I'll Be There for You...Perfect!
This is the first time I've seen Richie being a lead vocal for while and it's wow...
Sambora was always the best guitarist and singer in the band
Bon Jovi will never be the same without this man.. Great version, but nobody had a voice like Jon in his prime. Respect Richie!
So true!
I consider Richie has the most beautiful voice i ve ever listened to ....
Agreed. So sad Jon can't sing anymore. He gave it all for the fans. And sad Richie had to bow out of the band, he couldn't go on the way the machine was running. Richie and Jon are two musical martyrs. God bless 'em!
Jon has got better with age
Love Jon and Richie... absolute legends!!😘😘
He poured his heart and soul into this performance. Took it to a whole new level of greatness. What a legend this guy is! ❤️
3:20 I love that the idea of David singing richie's harmony line there. David's vocal is GREAT TOO👌👌😊
I LOVE Richie singing I'll Be There For You
Jon can't sing anymore
Hey Old Souled Hippie I agree with you 100% I am an old Vietnam Vet and went thru the drugs Crown Royal & Ice coke ruins it lol. Happy days to you and just keep on Trucking.

kenny Roberts that's sucks.why can't Jon sing?
Blues or country?
yupp
He killed it 🔥
Richie has the MSG audience in his hands. He was the backbone of Bon Jovi and wouldn't Jon like to have Richie's amazing voice now as his voice is gone.
His voice isn't gone at all, he had a surgery and his voice will come back or just came back.
@@BJKDMoni its gone.... tribute bands sound better!!

Just Like little rain on the Hot summer days!
@@nicare4828 ..... Right?!?! LOVE the way Richie sings this song
Not on a whole new level, but probably just on a different level.
However, and for me, the original, Jon Bon Jovi's is still THE BEST and of course most iconic.
The most underrated guitar 🎸 player ever,an absolute genius of the six string,love him❤
Sottovaluto da chi ? Grandissimo Chitarrista io che ascolto steve lukather eddy van halen dalla nascita sambora Sottovalutato Chitarrista incredibile
Underrated? So underrated that there's even a FENDER STRATOCASTER with his signature, man, FENDER wouldn't put it on one of their products if Richie Sambora wasn't a phenomenon on the 6 strings.
Tan cierto como la vida misma!! Lo peor es que no lo reconocerán mientras viva,y después se forraran con el merchandising de su obra.... reconocimiento ahora a quien corresponda por favor!!!!!😭😭😭😭
Richie Sambora was the heart and soul of Bon Jovi!
Got to agree, Jon just doesn't get it done without him.
True but Jon Bon Jovi is the founder
You got that right! 🙌
He is not dead...he just having a break :)
100% agree with that!!!
Say what you will, this man right there is the greatest of them all and no one will ever convince me otherwise.
Don't know how I got here in July of 2022, but sure glad I did. What a performance... WOW.
Best live performance of Sambora's career
Underrated perfection.....
Plays better, sings better, writes better. The triple threat. RICHIE has it all. Keep the new music coming .
Amazing performance. One of the best versions I've ever heard.
That is the best performance of this song I've ever heard... Plus it was live!!!
Richie is so underrated!!! pure gold talent!
THE best version of this song!!!
In Sambora's version I dont feel love oposite to Jo Bon Jovi's
You gay bro?
@@dan-iy5rs I didn’t either
Jon bon Jovi sang it best ❣️
Damn Richie is awesome. Totally the soul of the band. Here's hoping he comes back to the band for one more tour.
Well I hope Richie gets a huge Raise and the recognition he deserves, especially since he's been carrying john for decades.
Anyone else watching over and over? Insane performance Richie! ! !
Dave Bryan's vocal is so underrated aswell...
Great singers.. All of 'em....
Great band.
You're right!!!
Jon plans well, he know anyone in his band could carry him if he couldnt sing . Smart man
Dave has a great voice to. Is there Any song he does with Jon , no back up?
hhh

ImPele X 10!!!!! u r Bon Jovi! #
I downloaded a bunch of Richies solo stuff after seeing this video for the first time. Severely underrated musician and vocalist.
I agree.
Ohh yeah.. he’s awesome !
I know Jon hates this with his giant ego, but Richie is SO MUCH MORE TALENTED than Jon. There is no Bon Jovi without Ritchie, he is amazing!

I saw Ritchie on his solo tour in what was probably 1998. Outstanding. This is another example of his enormous talent.
