It’s nice after 37 years hearing him give Hugh McDonald the credit for that iconic bass line. Hugh was in the shadows playing bass on every album from Slippery on… About time people knew.

[@Robil63]

Hugh knew?

[@MNWILD43]

That was a great interview, Rich. I wish it was longer.

[@Ishai1]

The interview was longer, this is just the true or false segment

[@chrisburrelljr9270]

Full interview is already uploaded u just gotta watch it

[@tonkatrucker]

I had the immense pleasure of sitting with Bon Jovi and his band in Vancouver @ the Granville Cinema- where the "debut" of Basic Instinct was playing. They were up there, recording, and took a break to go see the movie. They sat right in front of us.. ( not knowing at this point)...and I griped.. sitting behind all that " hair". They laughed..and we moved up in front of them. They chatted and we talked... after the movie. Real gentlemen... all of them.

[@cromy1778]

MJJ was so incredibly famous that anybody associated with him (i.e. Bubbles) became "A list" superstars. Let that one sink in.

[@r3tr0actiongamer24]

Whacko Jacko also diddled little boys and paid off the families to avoid jail time. Let that sink in

[@benjaminharriesPR]

Hugh McDonald came up with the bass line for Living on a Prayer. Confirmed!

[@simonholland8500]

So Jon admits that HUGH (not Alec) came up with the baseline for LOAP! Knew it all along, so smooth 🙂

[@kawasakiwhiptwo5821]

A.J.S. was a better touring bassist than a studio bassist.

[@AM_9924]

Michael Jackson was another level of fame. Great story.

[@RAINE____]

One of the only times I've seen him relaxed and laughing. Good interview, he's pretty funny !

[@sunnyv5718]

After Bon Jovi returned to the hotel, Bubbles stayed out, went to a karaoke bar and sang the best cover of “Living on a Prayer” ever sung before or since.

[@MikeH_41-33_LII]

This was awesome.

[@doyouluvit]

he did a good job in U571

Great story about Michael Jackson. Thank you for sharing it to us, Bon Jovi. By the way, KZbinrs who wants to know more information about Michael Jackson should consult the podcasts called "Michael Jackson Case for Innocence", "Red Jackson Dance" (on KZbin), "The Mjcast", and the documentaries "Square One MJ", "The Lies of Leaving Neverland”, “Michael Jackson Private Home Movies”, “Michael Jackson Take Two The Footage You Were Never Meant to See”, “Michael Jackson The Humanitarian”, and “Loving Neverland”. These multiple documents are precious and rich in information that the media refuses to adequately broadcast.

[@Matt-fs1yy]

Yeah, no, he abused kids. Deal with it.

[@Nina-px6zi]

​@@Matt-fs1yyhow do you know ?

[@westaussie965]

This is the MJ bit 5:33

[@jag5014]

He seems very down to earth. In his recent appearance on Kimmel, Jimmy also asked him about his debut on a Star Wars Christmas album, his initial dissatisfaction with the Living on a Prayer song, and the Bubbles story, and he was just as engaged describing it here even though he's probably been asked a million times about it over the years.

[@jimstevenson424]

I was never a huge fan (their music was good, but it seemed like 80s pop after the 80s ended). He branched out way beyond music, and I assumed he was just a good businessman; but he is engaging, broadly talented, authentic and really connects with people (immediately). I get it now.

[@SilkyShish]

I agree. I wa never a fan of their music. But, Jon has definitely created a successful career for himself.

[@moot6794]

I had this Star Wars Christmas record and would just stare at the artwork when I was a kid, I loved it.

[@hawtmess66]

I love seeing Jon doing so many interviews while promoting Legendary. In the past 40 yrs i would get excited to see him on a talk show, talking about his personal life. It was rare. In every show he did was talk about his music. I love the new documentary because you get to hear a little bit of everything. My heart breaks for Jon but its fantastic the music catalog he has. I recommend watching it. Ive watched it 4 times

[@vipaccess-puertorico4462]

They gave Loverboy the song Notorious so not bad at all.

[@7Earthsky]

Michael Jackson knew how to rock.....He should have taken jon up on his offer. They would have had fun singing each other songs together and maybe even come up with something original. :)

[@kellygilbert621]

I had Christmas In the Stars 😂😂😂

[@mariedelgado1613]

Hi Jon we are die hard fans me and my sister Suzanna,We love the song Legendary ❤️❤️ you are a amazing singer songwriter a really good guy , we can’t wait for the documentary it’s 2weeks away

[@howardford6991]

The pairing of "Wanted Dead Or Alive" with the opening scene in the movie "Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man" is one of the best song/movie pairings of all time!!!

[@DailyDoseofDerkie]

My go-to song is Runaway by Bon Jovi and the entire bar back in 2007 to 2015 would explode in applause! Big fun

[@davidlarsen-tj4tn]

I remember seeing BJ before they blew up at Great Adventure in NJ. Played during the day and at night. I think it was 85 right after 7800deg came out.

[@the_dead_man]

When I saw the title, I expected Jon's story to start like "So there were these kids as his ranch..."

[@misterbigglesworth6852]

Tom Cruise also had a cameo in the series. He was shot in the final battle of the original "Young Guns."

[@scottwilson3741]

Slightly off subject, but Tom Cruise also had a blink and you'll miss it cameo in the final firefight in the first Young Guns

[@markmcmillan6254]

Eddie was in U571, had a major role to play.

[@1craley878]

So do we, we all love those songs.

[@dragracer2511]

THE PIZZA PIE JURY!!!!!

[@JojoFryrocks]

I’d love to hear from any of those teenage kids who used to go in and listen to Bon Jovi’s demos!! Also, of course he’s never heard a good karaoke version of Livin’ on a Prayer, since I’ve never seen him in a bar where I’ve been singing! 😂❤

[@Billkwando]

He was great in Moonlight & Valentino.

[@jamesbond-lm1zf]

BLOWING BUBBLES, TAKES ON A WHOLE DIFFERENT MEANING

[@howard120778]

Bon Jon jovi is a American legend

[@rosehill9060]

Great interview

[@Chuckt961]

The other movie I saw Jon Bon Jovi die in was U-571. Takes a sub hatch to the face after the other sub explodes. Brutal.

[@TheGodYouWishYouKnew]

Jon was in a lot of movies. They should have researched that before asking him if he was in YGII and nothing else.

[@mavenfrankeus7287]

What an awesome guy.

[@marcd1981]

I was surprised Rich didn't know that Jon has acted in several movies. And he's actually done a good job, better than some of these guys being pushed through by hollywood big-wigs. I was stationed at NAS Millington from July to December of 1985, and I arrived just before 4th of July weekend. There was a concert at Mud Island for the holiday, with Bon Jovi OPENING for Ratt. She's a Little Runaway was Bon Jovi's hit at that time, and Round and Round was Ratt's. I actually remember Bon Jovi's show more than Ratt's, and liked the music better, too.

[@sharon10132]

Bon jovi looking good❤

[@miggy78]

George Lucas, the gift (Stars Wars)….that keeps on giving, lol

[@thelolguy007]

‘Is that the only movie you’ve been in?’ How to tell us you don’t know the person you are interviewing without actually telling us you don’t know the person you are interviewing 🤦‍♂️

[@gokugoma3258]

Love Bon Jovi 👍🏾🔥

[@alexkx8599]

What about the story of Michael calling him (Jon) up in 1990 to go the theater of which they both did? Jon spoke of this in the very famous MTV, "Famous Last Words" that year with Kurt Loder. Why do these guys no know of that? It's probably the single handedly most famous interview Jon has done his entire life and career. Why the selective memory?

[@69soulseeker]

How do you not Know he was in Young Guns 2? do you even do any research? I know your old enough to have been around when the movie came out.

[@brettgashdj]

fastlane one of the best rock clubs in ever

[@whitneywood3374]

Hahahaha he partied with bubbles the chimp

[@jimlasswell4491]

U 571, Bon Jovi did a good job.

[@carleysdad94]

Michael sent Bubbles down to hang with Bon Jovi so he could have some "alone time" with an underage Japanese boy.

[@chrisburrelljr9270]

2:47Jon confirmed and has debunked alec john such did not play bass but was hugh Mcdonald that in fact played bass on living ona prayer and all but one albums

[@lancearmsgone2298]

Fact: Desmond Child wrote all of Bon Jovi’s hits.

[@juancarlosarango6132]

Did he really ask him if young guns II was the only movie he's been in? I mean, please do your research

[@darindunn]

Eisen doesn’t know Jon was in U-571?

[@RoseCityMusicClub]

$183 and 1980? Damn, you can’t make that today.😊

[@AlaborJinta]

5:45 .... is when it starts. the misleading title is meant for you to listen through irrelevant content until you get to the MJ story. a dirty trick

[@Azza10x]

That's just the big thing throughout the true or false to get people's attention. It's not misleading. In fact, it’s accurate

[@charleeschannel4841]

My hero! Thank you.

I cannot stand living on a prayer, maybe too Jersey for me.

[@lobo_nocturno5500]

That's great, but i still miss Richie

[@matthewpejkovic183]

Hugh came up with the baseline? Shouldn’t he have said Alex?

[@markwilliamsmusic2987]

It's been known for years that Hugh always been the one writing and recording the bass parts since the first album... Alec played on a few songs on 7800.

[@maplejames6992]

The Charlie Weiss wedding singer story is somewhere on KZbin, its so cringe to see her bugging Jon to sing.....

[@BlazingShackles]

John jump to light speed and went forward in time. Dude looks 90 years old now.

[@browncmp]

He was in U 571... not a small film. still dies fast lol.

[@MayberryMafioso]

Great interview except for Brockman.

[@mrh4368]

hey totally perplexed about the teenager studio thing uh blended a bunch of different songs there surely thats a bit wrong…they werent on the same album and sorry but you think hugh did the bassline on prayer? isnt this like off 10 years and a slap to such..even if the guy was a hack? slippery was my first record and i want to like jon but WTF was that BS

[@wburck123]

If you knew Bubbles final fate, you would not think that is a funny story about him...........

[@robpaxson4455]

Isn’t he still alive

ask him why he's been charging $200 a ticket for the last 10 years with his horrible vocals. the hell is this propoganda? this is embarrassing. partying with Bubbles 🙄

[@RS-cd9cf]

Who’s the lesbian that Rich is interviewing?

[@notmyrealname1730]

He seems like a good dude, but I've never liked his music. I don't like any of the 80s rock bands; it's just not my thing.

[@gabriel-1957]

This guy can’t even sing how he is in the rock ‘n’ roll. Hall of Fame blows my mind him and his Cincy band he was a two hit wonder the only reason why he’s in the Hall of Fame because he’s a stout liberal. three dog night belongs in the rock and roll Hall of Fame, not this bum and his band!
