FIRST TIME HEARING Bon Jovi - Livin’ On A Prayer (Official Music Video) REACTION

[@bobbyn.9773]

Jon Bon Jovi one of the real classy and good guys of rock n roll who is an activist and does alot of charity work and who is one of the few rock stars who is still happily married to his high school sweetheart for 33 years...one of the kings of the 80s hair bands...and a rarity a rock star who never indulged in drugs or boozing it up like most rockers who has lived a very stable life

[@chriswildhaber35]

Yes he is , also I seen them open up for my favorite band the scorpions, love at first sting tour, back in 85.

[@moodfm5673]

one of the smarter ones lol i know its good causes and such but most people who make huge amounts of money and give alot to charity are doing it because you get HUGE tax breaks in most countries.

[@bobbyn.9773]

@@moodfm5673 Well he has done a bunch of concerts here in NYC for fundraising for a bunch of causes for free and he does not get paid a dime so there are no taxes involved

[@maryannerazzano7692]

@@moodfm5673 he also has a restaurant that serves homeless and poor people

[@bobbyn.9773]

@@maryannerazzano7692 I am more of Led Zeppelin fan than Bon Jovi and they have some good songs but I always thought he was a decent human being and I respect the things he does outside of music and how he has always carried himself like a true down to earth gentleman

[@Mel-jh3sz]

Geez you can't go wrong with Bon Jovi all their songs are hits. I went to my first concert to see them when I was 14 because I was obsessed! My favourite songs of all time other than the two that you've already done are: Always, Wanted Dead or Alive, Lay Your Hands on Me, Bad Medicine, Living in Sin, Bed of Roses.. Just too many to list off.

[@endoraismygma]

Same girl. Class off 88 here 😎

[@sarablack2547]

@@endoraismygma if class of 88 means that's the year you left school then me too.although I think in America you leave at 18 in the UK it's 16.

[@malindaegdorf8861]

Bed Of Roses, Wanted Dead or Alive, Blaze of Glory! He had so many GREAT hits

[@vesakantola2260]

Blaze of Glory is solo, but still great song, agree!

[@andreabindolini7452]

@@vesakantola2260 That entire solo album by Jon (that recruited artists like Elton John, Little Richard, Jeff Beck for the task) is a total, overlooked masterpiece

Anytime she smiles you know it was good for you two. If she doesn’t smile, for you guys, it wasn’t something she would listen to again lol

[@TimSmith-uc4pk]

Is she like the gf or something? Shes always so quiet.

[@OfficialLifeWithRecklezz]

Facts lol. Shes funny but love the hell out of her💯🙏

[@mattbarnett6902]

She is mostly a statue, and when she drops I tiny smile, you remember that she's not there for decoration like one of the records in the background. 😂

[@michellepetrillo2235]

Fun facts about Jon Bon Jovi (lead singer): 1) He married his high school sweetheart and is still married to her today (32 years now). 2) He is distantly related to Frank Sinatra 3) He is quite the philanthropist, donating $1M to the Angel Network in 2005, rehabilitated a block of 15 homes in north Philly in 2007, opened the Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation in 2006, which supports the efforts to break the cycle of poverty and homelessness, and in 2011, opened the JBJ Soul Kitchen, where patrons either pay what they can afford for their meals, or volunteer to do work instead of paying. So he is quite a generous, kind person, in addition to being a talented singer/songwriter. And very easy on the eyes, too! 😍😍😍

[@maryannerazzano7692]

Wasn't this song about his parents? Gina and John ?

[@jennhurl]

🔥Bon Jovi🔥 -From New Jersey formed in '83 -Jon Bon Jovi (Lead singer) -Richie Sambora (Guitar) -Alec John (Bass) -Tico Torres (Drummer) -David Bryan (Keyboard) -24 albums total -sold 130 million+ records -2,700 concerts in 50+ countries for 34+ million fans. -UK Music Hall of Fame 2006 -Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 2018 -Jon Bon Jovi & Richie Sambora Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2009 They are one of the biggest touring & best selling glam metal/rock "hair bands" of the 80's. LYRICS: Song tells the story of Tommy and Gina, a working-class couple who struggle to make ends meet. Tommy loses his job as a dockworker due to a strike while Gina works as a diner waitress. "It deals with the way that two kids face life's struggles and how their love and ambitions get them through the hard times. It's working class and it's real…" They don't have much, but they have each other & they are livin on a prayer. *Some of the info is from Wikipedia

[@creinicke1000]

I love this song.. just for the reasons you've said.. it's fun.. but lyrics talk about the serious struggles that are made easier you support each other. I also love the history of Jon Bonjovi the lead singer and namesake of the band.. you can tell the time of a song by the length of his hair.

[@sarablack2547]

Yeah shorter in the 90's and again in 2000's

[@TopGun86]

Always and Make a Memory classic love ballads

[@tonyh6640]

Wanted Dead or Alive is a great Bon Jovi song...video is fire

[@sherryarflin726]

Yes, he’s saying that no matter what they have or don’t have, as long as they’re together they will make it.

[@Mainecoonlady.]

My homies! Born and raised in NJ, right between Jon Bon Jovi and Bruce Springsteen. Great band. Huge concert favorite. There are no bad songs…. None. We call Jon … BBBJ. 🤣😂🤣. Best Butt in Blue Jeans. He also has great hair. Not crazy about him going all gray now but we are old. It happens. I miss Ritchie on guitar but he chose to stay in California with his daughter and not tour. Respect for putting family first. It’s an Italian thang. ❤️

[@mrichards2211]

“Lay Your Hands on Me” is a good one!

[@bwilliams463]

The bass line is fantastic. I was lucky enough to play it on tuba in a brass band, and it was hard to not just blast it out as loud as I could.

[@domeshine69]

"Runaway" is my favorite. "Wanted Dead Or Alive" is a huge hit.

[@jayeell1253]

and one of the smoothest bass lines even

[@ACNC12]

Wanted Dead or Alive is one of Bon Jovi’s best for you to check out!

[@thethulcandran]

So many great bon Jovi recommendations in this chat thread I'm not just going to repeat the same songs that have already been said to this point. What I do want to point out is that Jon bon Jovi is a hell of a good dude. Like he made a fortune but he stayed humble and real. A good family man. He has his own place where he feeds the homeless out of his own pocket. You know sometimes you can go down there and catch bon Jovi, one of the greatest rock stars, humbly down there washing dishes after feeding the homeless. The world needs more people like him.

[@catheald]

Bed of Roses is a great song from Bon Jovi

[@charlyacevedo1775]

Other great BJ songs:Born To Be My Baby,It's My Life,Runaway,Bad Medicine,Living In Sin,Never Say Goodbye,Lay Your Hands On Me,In Your Arms,Have A Nice Day,We Weren't Born To Follow,All About Loving You,Wanted Dead Or Alive.

[@rossdownes4240]

good reaction.Jon also tried his hand at acting did quite well.Ritchie Sambora's first wife was the actress Heather Locklear.

[@jamescarter4339]

In 1986 this group played the civic arena a big arena where the penguins hockey played. But they came for 2 days Friday and Saturday and the tickets went on sale both days sold out in 10 minutes for 20 thousand seat arena that's both days so they opened and sold Sunday as well in 5 minutes. Just craziness what this 80's hairband brought to the table.

[@nm9414]

Bad Medicine and You Give Love a Bad Name-keep up the great reactions!

[@3DJapan]

Try as I may. I can NOT resist singing along to this one.

[@donaldnewberne2616]

This is an Awesome Band and song. This song came out in 1986 three years after my wife and I were married. This song describes our marriage at the beginning and our Anthem. This past August 12th marked our 40th Wedding Anniversary. Wow! Where did the year's go?!?! Rock On Bon Jovi! 🤘🤟✊🤙👊💥🔥

[@endoraismygma]

Ahh Jon Bon Jovi, as a teenager armed with her Aqua Net, I seriously thought I'd marry him someday. Jon is an amazing man, dad and husband off stage and a terrific performer on stage. Great Live shows these guys put on. 😎

[@princeofpcos9804]

Do Wanted Dead or Alive. The music video is good, but there is another video of just Jon and Ritchie doing it live with a couple of acoustic guitars that is awesome

[@davidsafford1423]

It's happy anthem rock, it gets the crowd to sing along

[@sherryarflin726]

Love these guys. Of course John has great vocals but his lead guitarist Richie Sambora has killer vocals also. Plus he’s a totally underrated guitarist.

[@ianh6845]

This was my favorite song when I was 3. Which of course was 1986. The song was everywhere.

What you should check out is a song he made about Covid last year called Do What You Can. He used lyrics submitted by fans.

Same, saw them in Vancouver where Bon Jovi recorded SWW. Bob Rock came on stage for an extended encore. Great show!

[@DeannaFiedler]

Mine too!!!

[@martinsv9183]

Those two were his best. But the earlier songs "Runaway" and "Hardest Part Is The Night" are ok too. I'm mostly into 80's but "Keep The Faith" is also ok although from 1992 so it lost a little of the typical 80's style/sound.

[@tonyarenee531]

Probably My TOP Rock Band in the 80's I saw them with Skid Row In 1989!!! In Shreveport LA... I had seen Skid Row and knew their Hits BAD ASSS BAND! On MTV and bought their album It was a BAD ASS Concert!!! I was 22!! Jon Bon Jovi had a Metal Bridge that moved around the Arena His performing too .... Never forget it!

[@jennhurl]

Bon Joni 🔥 Runaway '84 🔥 Wanted Dead or Alive '86 🔥 Lay Your Hands On Me '88

[@WineSippingCowboy]

Written by Jon Bon Jovi, Ritchie Sambora and Desmond Child. Produced by late Bruce Fairbairn. Engineered by Bob Rock. Recorded in Little Mountain Sound, Vancouver, Canada 🇨🇦 1986. In the other part of the studio, Poison was recording their album. This was the golden age for that music studio. The next year, Whitesnake recorded some songs. I was in Vancouver then. But I was in a different district! 😖 Talk box by Richie. This song is based on the life of the co writer Desmond Child. Jon changed the name to Tommy: Desmond or Desi does not have a familiar ring to American listeners like Tommy does. Jump by the main lineup of Van Halen influenced the music video. Great song 👍 This song is Part 1. Part 2 is... ...suggested video 📹: It's My Life.

[@quincee3376]

I was never a huge Bon Jovi fan back in the 80s but this is my favoutite song.

[@robinakym2356]

She looks a little mesmerised. I feel ya, girl. JBJ at his finest

[@e_r_i_k_w]

I remember when this album and song came out. It really swept the nation and you couldn't go to any store without hearing it playing over the speakers. At every traffic light, you'd hear it playing from cars with the windows rolled down. It was my first exposure to the concept of a true "rock star" and heartthrob in Jon Bon Jovi. The music hasn't aged all that well for me personally, but you have to give it to them for taking advantage of that window of time.

Blaze of Glory, My Life and Wanted Dead or Alive are also great ones from Bon Jovi.

[@sumonjamal1653]

Bon Jovi's 3rd album 'Slippery when wet' in 1986 was their big record, after years of opening for other bands... MTV made them superstars w/ 3 music videos from this album - 'You give love a bad name'... "Livin' on a prayer" ... 'Wanted dead or alive'... and it sold 7 million copies in the US alone & a global smash hit worldwide from Europe to Japan, Australia to South America... 'Let it rock' was a big single on radio as well... 'Social disease' was also a fan fave... 'Never say goodbye' was another radio single. When Bon Jovi returned in 1988 w/ the 'New Jersey' album, they were playing arenas and stadiums worldwide and sold 5 million copies in the US.

[@katherineschmidt2075]

The best song of theirs, and the best vid clip aswell.

Nice Reaction ty both Bon Jovi "Wanted Dead Or Alive" in my opinion best song from them

[@MsFoiledagain]

Saw them in concert down in Indy when I was a senior in high school. I had my own car but didn't tell my parents I was going (I was driving from South Bend, almost a 3 hour drive each way...on a school night). It was an awesome concert, they were even better live than on their CD and I wouldn't have believed that was possible, but it was a great time and I have good memories of that night.

[@jackiegoodspeed1849]

People left their houses at 18 back then and prayer was how we have made it because we had to make it on our own. Today kids stay at home.

[@BettyBicepGirls]

Bon Jovi and the official video of the song “ Bad Medicine “ rocks !

[@dorslyon8873]

What's interesting about all the songs on this album is they were in studio and invited some kids in to eat pizza and listen to them and they put a lot of the ones on there they liked lol

[@andreabindolini7452]

Now you must complete the Holy Trinity: "Wanted Dead or Alive". Other total hits: Born To Be My Baby (a sort of sequel of Livin' On a Prayer), Blaze of Glory (solo work by the singer Jon Bon Jovi), Keep the Faith, Bed of Roses, These Days, This Ain't a Love Song, Always, It's My Life, Everyday, Have a Nice Day, We Weren't Born To Follow and so on. Oh and some good old stuff like Only Lonely, Runaway, The Hardest Part is the Night.
