Yes, he is...... but his love for drinking made him loos his control of reality and his place within Bon Jovi . They where always willing to help but everything has his border. Its a shame but drinking / drugs are a self distroction off every human and when you dont want help you never get off the addiction.

Now that Richie is on his own , He should release this song again. It was about 25 yrs ahead of its time. I think it would be huge now. He was over shadowed back in 91 by bon jovi.

[@skullsablazemusic]

This song reminds me of a spring day when I travelled thousands of kms to meet a special girl. We were both very young, but very mature at the same time. I waited for that May morning for so long.. Those were awful times, but music gave us the strenght, the hope to carry on and keep living. That date should have strenghtened our bond... Unfortunately, everything went fucked up, and we never met each other. But still, this song holds a very special place in my heart. The fear of growing up, the hope for the future, the love and delusions of two young teens afraid to lose each other... This song is adolescence itself. I'm listening to it after a very long time... it used to make me cry. Now I just smile, as nostalgia takes me back in time. Such a good tune.

Hey, mr Sambora. I don’t know if you are ever going to read this. Just want to say that your lyrics and your guitar skills are fucking awesome. I really understood your reasons to leave Bon Jovi. You gotta a lot of talent and I’m a big fan of all your songs. You got an unique sound, and that’s a thing that every musician always try to get. I hope -really hope- everything is going alright with your life. You were a really big inspiration when I was playing guitar back in the day. Hope someday you want to make a Southamerican tour. I’ll be waiting to see you live here in Lima, Peru. Keep it real man. All the best.
