    I'm from NJ, and I couldn't tell you one Jon Bon Jovi song. All I know about him is his generosity and decency in creating his restaurants. For this alone, he is a hero to me. Thank you, Jon.

    Jon Bon Jovi - Livin' on a Prayer. Best track ever. It never gets old.

    Back when I was in high school everyone was listening to Poison, Motley Crew, Guns'N'Roses (so was I) but all my peers would tease me for listening to Bon Jovi. Jokes on them. Today they all listen to Bon Jovi.

    My best friend and I took our teenage daughters to a Bon Jovi concert at Iowa City in the early 90’s. Two different generations loving the music together. Now their music is on my grandchildren’s playlist. Yes the music will live on.

    😂❤ man that wasn't long enough...😢 love you Jon Bon Jovi
  • These days was the pinnacle for Bon Jovi after the 80’s stuff. Timeless earthy roots RNR sound, the vocals, Richie’s guitar/vox and really great songwriting like Bruce/Stones.

    He’s right, especially with the internet, it’s almost immortality in a way

    I love the band, but they also provided the biggest "oopsie" I have ever seen at a concert and I've been to a lot. I saw Bon Jovi open for Ratt in like 1986 in Cleveland. We had 7th row seats. On the opening song he came running out from the wing wearing a long leather duster, tripped on a monitor cord and fell on his face. After about ten seconds of surprise, Ritchie Sambora had to turn around he was laughing so hard.
  • Still sooooooooooo beautiful. JBJ ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

    Yes, the songs will outlive even current day fans. There's plenty more folks discovering Bon Jovi everyday and with 40's years of albuns there's plenty to choose from.

    I have seen Bon Jovi every time they came around to my area over the years. I took my daughter to a Bon Jovi who at that time was in her mid twenties. She became an instant fan. Jon’s beautiful smile and the great music made her a forever fan. ❤❤
