Richie Sambora has always been one of my favorites. I never considered Bon Jovi to just be Jon's band, so much as a partnership between Jon and Richie. It kind of hurt me when Richie left. I'd dearly love to see them get back together and tour again. Good reaction, guys!
As a fan for 35yrs i agree that Richie is underappreciated. I think being in Bon Jovi is partly the issue at the end of the 80s they became very unfashionable in the media and the rock/metal world the band they all loved to hate. They were regularly bought up to be everything about the 80s that the grunge scene hated. Richie is a great guitarist, Tico is a great drummer, David a great keyboard player but they never get mentioned any 'best of' listing. Not a coincidence in my opion.
Great to see someone reacting to this amazing song. One of their best tunes. I would say its possibly their bohemian rhapsody even. Sadly most folks dont hear this one, just the classics like living on a prayer.
*Those days in 1995 when Bon Jovi kicked Michael Jackson from the #1 spot in the charts.....those days when Richie Sambora was still in the band, but since he's out,....the train rides into nowhere ......Tico "Hitman" Torres on the drums......"Keep The Faith" was my intro-album to Bon Jovi......back in the days....*
@@faiz7180 *It was not a song. The Michael Jackson 2 CD-Set "HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I" entered the UK album charts at the #1 spot, but was kicked from the peak position, one week later, by the BON JOVI album "(these Days)", which also entered the charts in its first week at #1. The album stayed four consecutive weeks at #1.* 🎵🔥🔥🎸🔥🔥🎵
@@faiz7180 *Oh, it was. The album spawned four TOP 10 singles on the UK Singles chart, the band's highest number of TOP 10 singles from one album in the UK. The album was also voted the "Album of the Year" in British magazine "Kerrang!" 's readers poll in 1995.* 🎵🔥🔥🔥🎸😈🎸🔥🔥🔥🎵🔊✅
You reacted to my favorite Bon Jovi song. I became a fan 30 years ago (when I was 13), and even when I started to listen to a lot of heavier stuff (Rammstein, Metallica, etc). they stayed the softest of my favorite bands for many years. The last albums really went too soft and mainstream for my taste, but I'll always love the first round about 25 years of their music and I'll always love Jon's voice, David's piano playing ( he studied at Juilliard School of music), Richie's solos and voice (maybe check out Father Time from his solo album) and Tico Torres is just a cool dude who worked with Chuck Berry and Miles Davis, is an artist/painter with exhibitions and has a children clothing label (Rock Star Baby). Sorry for rambeling! I'm just so hyped to hear a reaction to this song 🙈😅 Greetings from Germany!
Richie Sambora's guitar solos from this video (taken at Wembley Stadium) are legendary. He is the most underrated guitarist on the planet. A true genius. Great review guys, you are fucking awesome.
You are so right. Bon Jovi has been my fav. Before that it was Journey and the Scorpions. I'm very partial to journey because Steve Perry and I grew up in the same small country area. We But the schools were very close together. He always says hes from Hanford but when he is actually from Lamoore. I grew up 15-20 mins away . Steve's family were farmers my family were farmers we all lived in a farm area I also went to school with his cousins my brother used to date one of his cousins almost all through high school. But Bon Jovi will always be my favorite. Even though hes lost his voice Nothing can compare to his old music.
I was at that concert and it was the best day of my life. So glad you really liked it and appreciated it for what it is. It’s an awesome song. I’ve seen so many versions of it live n they are all awesome.
I remember that great concert i was fortunate to be there bon Jovi kicked ass for sure this is a total classic performance im pleased you guys appreciate great music yes indeed 🙌 👍
So refreshing to see someone react to this. I've rated the guitar solo in my top ten of all time since the first day I heard it back in '92, but when I mention it to people, they just stare blankly. Sambora is so underrated. I think perhaps this whole album got a little overlooked by people who thought they'd gone a bit commercial in the new decade. Well it's their loss, it's a great album. Actually my favourite track on it is "Save a Prayer", but it was only on UK and Japanese editions for some stupid reason.
It may have been in all European editions? I remember a radio interview in my country (Spain) when Keep the Faith came out. The journalist stated that it was his favourite song in the album and inquired how come it was a bonus track. Jon Bon Jovi was very surprised and seemed to open up, he said in fact it was his favourite as well and he had fought to have it in the album but the idea got no traction. He only was able to get it in as a bonus track in overseas editions.
@@pedroteran5885 Very interesting. It does make me wonder what the people with the power to decide these things are thinking. Seems like it would widely be considered one of the best tracks on the album, if only everyone got to hear it.
This was the night Bob Geldof joined them on stage to play I don't like Mondays as it was almost 10 years to the day since Live aid at Wembley. This solo is Richies best ever and this is his best performance of it. I was there that night and will always remember it
Hearing these songs on the album, I think, man,this guitarist just brings so much passion to the song. But seeing it live, you can SEE the passion he has!!! Amazing!!!
Keep the Faith is one of my favourite Bon Jovi album, maybe even the best and Dry County is an excellent song. I loved to sing and play this with piano when I was a teen. ❤️
Oh yeah...!! Jon Bon Jovi was the man! I believe you can find interesting to do: Always( live) or Living on a prayer (live) from this same concert! P.D. this entire concert is fenomenal!!
This as Bon Jovi at their peak! 1995 they had matured into one tight machine. And this song is probably one of their best. Tico on the drum Richie on the guitars, Alec on the bass, David on the keys and Jon on vocals. They were on top of their game.
I was at this gig, they played Friday Night, Saturday Night and Sunday night and i went on all three nights, back in the day when they where still good;
Neste caso em concreto foram 3 noites no estádio do wembley para mais de 300000 pessoas. Impressionante como nos dias de hoje ainda se mantém, mesmo a voz não sendo a mesma. Há que lhes dar mérito.
Was a great show I was there in 95. Great support too with Thunder, Ugly Kid Joe and Van Halen. Only downside was I had to go with my soon to be ex wife 😀
This was Bon Jovi at their AAA++++++++++ best. Richie gave me chilld every time i watch this. Jon and my bdays are 4 days apart. And he sings this with the passion us Pisces have . i write poems. And Even had an English professor tell me I should publish my work but I said no this is all real personal I've even had people tell me that there was some of my stuff that would make great songs maybe I should have sent some to Jon back then. Oh but I am almost 10 years older than him and had been around musicians at the time when he came out with RUNAWAY. I do have musicians in my family my mother and her sisters were in a singing group my mother made her 1st record at 16 years old. And my cousin who is now passed away The car accident was a very famous country singer Johnny Horton So I have music in my background Since I was a baby. Bon Jovi is still my favorite band. Even if John lost his voice I don't look at how he is now with his vocal cords because he gave us so much joy over the years with their lyrics and their songs. Love them all to the moon and back.
Some react tips: "Question!" by System of a Down "Fogert To Remember" by Mudvayne "Rocket Skates" by Deftones "I'm With a Stupid" by Static-X "Rock Me Like The Devil" by Crucified Barbara "The River" by Wage War "Brackish" by Kittie "Justice" by Rev Theory "Whole" by Flaw "Kill Me" by Exilia "Paralyzed" by Love and Death (Brian Welch band, Korn guitarist)
So many of Bon Jovi's hits were songs of their moment--good, catchy, radio-friendly pop rock that still checks all of those boxes but is also very clearly rooted in the "hair" sound of the 1980s. "Dry County" stands the test of time far better than their chart-toppers do; it's just a pure, unadulterated rock song steeped in all the best traditions of that genre. Nearly 30 years after its release it still sounds incredible and it still sounds like something that could have been recorded anywhere between the early '70s and the modern day. I dare say that in 30 more years, that will still be true. Led Zeppelin had "Stairway to Heaven" Lynyrd Skynyrd had "Free Bird" The Eagles had "Hotel California" Queen had "Bohemian Rhapsody" Bon Jovi had "Dry County"
Bon Jovi are so far away from what I like, but I'm big enough (and old enough) to say that this song is all kinds of incredible, Springsteen on steroids! Sambora is fucking amazing in this!
Bon Jovi guitar solos are usually very controlled to the songs. This song is one of the few times Richie Sambora gets to just go off and show his chops within the context of the song itself.
Tico Torres e mostro da bateria,Jon vocal e harmonia da banda,David Bryan da o toque de suavidade da banda,E o Mr Sambora sabe incendiar o show no momento certo,Difícil falar de uma banda onde todos integrantes casaram perfeitamente um com o talvez aí esteja a chave do sucesso e da popularidade da banda.
Thank you both for restoring my faith in the younger generation of music listeners! It is so great watching you both enjoy some of the great music of my youth, As a 57 year old, It is so much fun watching you get blown away by artists like Ted Nugent, Triumph, Queensrych, Etc, Etc. All hope is not lost when it comes to keeping great music alive! I was hoping for a reaction to Dire Straits Song Tunnel of Love of of the album Making Movies. A true HEATER! Thanks for your consideration and Happy New Year!
Best song on `Keep The Faith`. Richie Sambora is one of the worlds` most underrated guitarists.
Sambora is a great guitarist. 😊🎸
This song was his finest moment (up to this point, I guess I should say).
I don't think underrated is the correct term, Underappreciated would seem more fitting!

Sambora’s finest moment.
This is every die hard Bon Jovi’s favourite song. I still get chills every time I see it live
That's a fact.
Dry County and My Guitar Lies Bleeding In My Arms is two most popular song among die hard Bon Jovi's fans.
Im a diehard jovi fan, personally bed of roses isn’t just my favorite jovi song, but my all time favorite. Dry county is a close second
same deffoo their best song ! and not only chills .. but tears too , for i dunno what reason
No it isn't. I'm diehard and can't stand Dry County
Great to see someone reacting to this amazing song. One of their best tunes. I would say its possibly their bohemian rhapsody even. Sadly most folks dont hear this one, just the classics like living on a prayer.
Best guitar solo on any Bon Jovi song ever, i never get sick of hearing this live
The whole Wembley concert is insanely good. Always from the same concert is unreal.
other amazing song of bon jovi, "my guitar lies bleeding in my arms" album of 1995 "these days"
Amazing guitar
Guitarist Richie Sambora is also a brilliant singer with a great voice
He was my favorite guitarist
Yes, Richie 's voice is .... Wow!!!❤❤❤

This is one of Bon Jovi's best songs.
This was the first concert I ever went to. I was 13 years old and went there with my dad. It is still the best live act I have ever seen!
You get the best father
Best father
I remember that great concert i was fortunate to be there bon Jovi kicked ass for sure this is a total classic performance im pleased you guys appreciate great music yes indeed 🙌 👍
Dry County é épica! Performance antológica!
Thanks for react from Brazil!
Ritchie so underrated as a guitarist! Bon Jovi is not the same without him!!!
And he is not the same without Bon Jovi.

This Song Doesn't get Enough Attention. For me it's in My Top 10 Bon Jovi Songs.
My favourite song of theirs, although there isn’t a bad track on “Keep the Faith” Richie is an amazing guitarist too.
Hearing these songs on the album, I think, man,this guitarist just brings so much passion to the song. But seeing it live, you can SEE the passion he has!!! Amazing!!!
You picked the BEST song to review 🤘🏻❤️
Thanks for this!!
This is the best song from Bon Jovi...period!
So happy you reacted bonjovi's song👍👍👍
Amazing guitar solo!
Please react bon jovi "lay your hands on me" live in Wembley 1995
Keep the Faith is one of my favourite Bon Jovi album, maybe even the best and Dry County is an excellent song. I loved to sing and play this with piano when I was a teen. ❤️
*Another harder gem [with some psycho-lyrics] from "Keep The Faith"...: "If I Was Your Mother".* 🎸🥁😈
The best story Bon Jovi has ever told musically. There is a spiritual sequel to this song on their 2010 album The Circle called Broken Promised Land
Respect 🫶Bon Jovi Forever...
Love this song, easily my favourite guitar-solo/instrumental
I’ve seen that video hundreds of times but with your guys’ reaction l literally felt like my soul lifted out of my body 😂😭
Oh yeah...!! Jon Bon Jovi was the man! I believe you can find interesting to do:
Always( live) or Living on a prayer (live) from this same concert!
P.D. this entire concert is fenomenal!!
Richie kicking ass on that song
*Richie's always kicking ass.* 🤘🎵🎸😈👍😈🎸🎵🤘
Jon's voice was solid on this one.
Insane solo guitar...... Richie sambora perfect underated guitar players.
This as Bon Jovi at their peak! 1995 they had matured into one tight machine. And this song is probably one of their best. Tico on the drum Richie on the guitars, Alec on the bass, David on the keys and Jon on vocals. They were on top of their game.
Amazing song…Amazing band…👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Richie Sambora is so EPIC!!!! Love this song! Love Richie's skills!! Love Bon Jovi!
quite simply the second solo,the best in rock!
Great reaction, I love it... If you want to hear a hard song of Bon Jovi; you should check keep the faith live in 1993
Hello from Mexico!
What a great song, great performance!
Keep the faith it's the best álbum of all
I sat watching this...just for the solo reaction 😂😂
I was at this gig, they played Friday Night, Saturday Night and Sunday night and i went on all three nights, back in the day when they where still good;
The lyrics are heavy in this song! The song is executed beautifully !♥️🎸🎵🎶🎤🎹
Can you react to Lay your hands on me from the same concert?
Definately agree with you on reacting to Lay Your Hands on Me from this concert. A great performance of a great song.
Neste caso em concreto foram 3 noites no estádio do wembley para mais de 300000 pessoas.
Impressionante como nos dias de hoje ainda se mantém, mesmo a voz não sendo a mesma.
Há que lhes dar mérito.
The body of Bon Jovi is still alive, but the soul is gone after RS left. Sad
Thank you for loving me. and bed of roses, and Always.......
This was the second live gig i ever went to!
My Favorite song!! The version in studio is even better
The fact that this guitar solo(s) is exactly the same on the Spotify audio👀 I love listening to it constantly
the best band of the world
l am big fan of bon jovi since 90's until now.BON JOVI the best.
I was there, was a great show.
I recommend I'll be there for you live in Philadelphia 1989.
Wanted Dead Or Alive and Blaze Of Glory are two more great tracks from Bon Jovi that need your reaction...Peace
When Bon Jovi and Music was one!
when musis were good, richie is underrated, incredible guitar player, singer.
Amazing, tgat song as one of the best solo guitar i ve ever listen...
If you can find it, check out Bon Jovi's Blood on Blood from the 1989 Moscow Peace Festival. Wanna talk about getting chills.
Talk about an underrated song… 🎸
Richie Sambora👍
I was there. What a night
Where does the time go 😢
Brilliant reaction as always.
This is one of my favourite songs! I love the reaction
Was a great show I was there in 95. Great support too with Thunder, Ugly Kid Joe and Van Halen. Only downside was I had to go with my soon to be ex wife 😀

Blood on blood from Moscow 89. best damn live song on youtube!
A par de These Days a melhor música de Bon Jovi
Tico Torres fera demais na bateria ❤
The Best Álbum in History the Bon Jovi
Awesome Reaction
Back in the days when Bon Jovi sing rock, not country pop shit!
Sad But True
Dude got older and simply wanted to change things up, no need to disrespect a great musician nonetheless
@@mrperson1830 it wasn't a change, was a downgrade
@@mrperson1830 The sad part is that he changed to popmusic to make more dollars by radio playtime...
@@Kengursson also I feel like they are trying to fit in with the new trend which is probably not a good idea.
I love Bon Jovi, and this is the best reaction on youtube from Bon Jovi :) Like and sub... ;)
Check out Always from same show.
