This was my wife's song. She passed in 2021. I think of her everytime I hear this. Our first date was going to the Bon Jovi Slippery When Wet Tour concert in Cleveland, Ohio 1987
Jon Bon Jovi once gave a perfect response to a reporter who questioned his creativity for not changing up his music during live shows. He said that the songs aren't just his-they belong to his fans. He doesn’t have the right to steal their memories by altering them. Those classic hits hold special places in people's lives, and he respects that by delivering them just as fans remember. It's about honoring the connection and nostalgia his audience has with the music. That’s why Bon Jovi has stood the test of time!
The blonde in the first verse, his guitar. The mistress in theast verse, is the stage. She calls him to be in her spotlight. He won't be alone, the fans, but he's still lonely
Jon Bon Jovi was very smart, he was the only one that had the recording contract out of the band, he paid his band as employees, he made them all philthy Rich. He went through the 80s pretty much sober, and handled his business as if it was a business. While most of the other 80s bands just squandered all their earnings and partied really hard. He has some really catchy hits, one of those guys that had at least one song that everybody liked.
This is one of my favorites. When I was younger I would go to a friend's house to listen to the guys jam and play songs. One of the guys is now playing with Bon Jovi. He put up a guitar video of him playing on UA-cam. Bon Jovi contacted him and the rest is history. This also reminds me of what I did for a woman that I believe to be the ultimate woman for me. I went out and bought 3 dozen roses and de-thorned them. I put one dozen in a vase. Then the rest I put in a horse shoe shape on my pillow and bed. She came over to my place and I told her to close her eyes and picked her up and carried her into my room and put her down in a bed of roses. The look in her eyes was priceless when she saw the rose. Very special moment. Thanks for your reaction videos. Have a great day.
I know it's unusual for a drummer to give a guitarist a complement, but Richie Sambora is one of my favs. His feel for each song is amazing, never overplays even though he has the chops. He's all about adding exactly what the song needs, dude is unreal.
Aileen you never half to apologize for speaking your mind that's why we are here to see how the music makes you feel and think. Keep up the great work Aileen hope you are having a great day ❤️
Bon Jovi is amazing! There's a few that I recommend. "Lay Your Hands On Me," (official video), "This Ain't A Love Song" (video), "You Give Love a Bad Name." If you want to see a live performance, I recommend "Dry County" Live at Wembley 1995, "Always" from Wembley, 1995, or "Keep The Faith" Giants Stadium, 2001. Great reactions!
*Jon Bon Jovi said in an interview about this music video, that initially the video directors wanted him to be on the mountain tops, but he said : "I was on top of a mountain in "Blaze Of Glory", send them.".......a wise decision, the visual result still looks spectacular and didn't lost any coolness over all these years [ "Bed Of Roses" was released as a single in January 1993 and was taken from BON JOVI 's 1st comeback-album "KEEP THE FAITH" [ another banger (track & video)], which was released in November 1992.* 🎵🎸🎹🥁🎸🎵💿📀📺🔥😈🔥
This was “Our song” when it came out in 1992. The “Blonde” in his bed is a metaphor for his Gibson guitar. His “Mistress” calling him to be in the spotlight is the stage to play another concert.
When I watched this band live, EVERYONE lit their lighters and put up their phone lights. This was a deep moment, and Jon dedicated it to his wife, with whom he had celebrated his 20th anniversary with just a few months beforehand. it was the first time I cried at a concert, and it wouldn't be the last... Thanks for reacting to this, it brought back great memories.
Great reaction to a great song! As a kid in the 1980's, Bon Jovi became my first favourite band and they were also my first concert I ever attended back in 1994 at 14 years old. A couple of my personal favourite Bon Jovi songs are "Bad Medicine" and "Raise your Hands". 🍻🤘
I sang this at karaoke a few weeks ago and nailed it. First time I ever got a standing ovation at karaoke. That must be how real musicians must feel when they perform.
If you ever get the chance you should check out the acoustic album This Left Feels Right. I bought the album in 2004 for my birthday thinking it was a greatest hits album. I was pretty irritated when I realized it was an acoustic album with much slower versions of all of their songs. Over the years it's became my favorite performance(s) for most of the songs.
My favorite Bon Jovi song is one that almost no one talks about "Miracle". This song is a poignant reflection on the struggles and the need for hope in the face of adversity. The lyrics convey a sense of weight and burden, as if the protagonist is carrying the world on their shoulders, a conmmon metaphor for feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges. The song speaks to the human condition, the search for meaning, and the desire for a miraculous intervention in difficult times. It's so good 👍🤓👌
We used to hear this at the skating rink in the early 90's, and just DREAM about a love that made us feel like the song does. I'm gonna sound like an old lady for a minute, but I wish music was still made like this. Beautifully arranged, but so honest and vulnerable.
It's Richie Sambora in the mountain. Jon said he already did that for Blaze of Glory video, so he said send Richie. Jon Bon Jovi wrote the song "Bed of Roses" in a hotel room while hungover, and the lyrics reflect his feelings at the time. The song was first featured on Bon Jovi's 1992 album Keep the Faith and was released as a single on January 11, 1993. The song is 6:33 long on the album and 5:05 long in the edit.
I have a song in mind my wife and i listen to that is so personal to my wife and myself. I am a 6ft 5in 270 llb construction worker ( GUYS ARE NO SUPPOSED TO CRY ) But this song is so personal to our familiy and friends. The song is done by Martina Mc Bride and the song is Concrete Angel. I know you are super busy, but hearing you react to this video that is true around the world, You may ball like we do all through the song. I hope you can react to this song that needs to be heard. I don't want to give it away about the song , but our daughter was bed ridden and couldn't say what was happening to her. We had a live-in nurse/caretaker just for her. This nurse was the devil. What she did to our poor little girl was only came out of horror stories My wife and i blame ourselves still and it happened 2 years ago. Always give your kids a huge and kiss before bed !!! You might never get another chance
What brings me back to this channel...is the heartfelt reactions. I like the appreciation for artistry. I think youd like...thank u for loving me by bon jovi.
I never realized this before (after nearly 40 years of listening) Bon Jovi sounds like Tom Wait. Anywho, every hair band in the 80s did a ballad or a few...Bon Jovi, LA Guns, Poison, White Lion, Whitesnake, Tesla, Ratt, Van Halen, etc. I think it was mandatory by the MTV demons, or that could just be my belief.
Came out when i had my first girlfriend. A lot of Bon Jovi was played when we were alone together.Also, listen to the low licks Richie is playing, love them so much. The high one is obvious, but especially when he plays it low, thats so cool. Slash and Richie, the reasons that made me pick up guitar. I also wanted to stand on top of a mountain with a hat and sound that good while my guitar isn't even plugged in.
Bed of Roses is a classic ballad. As always, another great reaction. If you continue on your Bon Jovi journey I would recommend Dry County, it's another great song with some brilliant guitar work. Keep up the great work, much love.
Some of the best lyricism ever in a rock song: "I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is," "With an ironclad fist I wake up and French kiss the morning," "I'm so far away each step that I take's on my way home," "Tonight I won't be alone but you know that don't mean I'm not lonely." Beautiful. Now you need to hear some pure fun, upbeat Bon Jovi: You Give Love a Bad Name or Bad Medicine fits the bill.
Without knowing for sure, my guess is they actually filmed for real on that mountain peak. This was the 90s, MTV was still in full swing, and record labels still spent a fair buck on music videos. So they would have flown there in a helicopter, and then filmed from the same helicopter.
he did the solo's up there in answer to the slash solo in november rain LOL but yeah they were actually up there i believe they got flown in on a helicopter
There was one moment there that made me think it was definitely a rocky prop in front of a screen for the mountain shots I do love this song; one of my favourites by them
Aileen, the outdoor shots in the mountains are real, it was a promotional video for the movie "Young Guns" and "Young Guns 2". Bon Jovi wrote and performed the soundtrack for both Movies
Hi Aileen 😊 Fantastically awesome reaction to Bon Jovi's Bed of Roses 😊👍 Yes, we will absolutely take the blame for sending you this great music 😊 I echo the sediments of other UA-camrs by saying the reason we enjoy your reactions is because you're real and you express your feelings and we don't mind how long you talk because you are enjoying our music for the first time just like we did way back when so we enjoy your reactions and that's why we love you😊 Keep up the good work you're awesome 😊👍 All of the recommendations for Bon Jovi reactions by you are fantastic plus other artists recommendations too😊 I will enjoy your reactions to all of them 😊 Have a great day you and Arya 😊👍
When you return to Bon Jovi I would humbly request you listen to either “It’s My Life” or “Living on a Prayer”. You will enjoy them immensely! Loving your channel!!
For some good rocking hits from Bon Jovi, you have to listen to "Living On A Prayer", a rock classic anthem. Also check "Bad Medicine", "You Give Love A Bad Name", and "Lay Your Hands On Me." For similar type ballads, check "Always", and "I'll Be There For You"
Thank you. I’ve watched several of your reactions, picking songs that I always loved. Without fail, your reactions cause my eyes to well up…..so cool that someone feels it like we all do.
Bon Jovi was the king of ballads and catchy songs like this, "Never Say Goodbye", "In These Arms", "I'll be there for You". For something more energetic, try the "Born to be my Baby", the "Living on a Prayer" anthem, or "It's my Life". Tons of hits.
Great reaction to an amazing rock band. Whilst watching this I looked up Jon Bon Jovi and was surprised to read that "During a stop in Los Angeles on The New Jersey Syndicate Tour he secretly took a trip to Las Vegas and married his high school sweetheart, Dorethea Hurley, at the Graceland Wedding Chapel. The couple have four children: A daughter, Stephanie, and the boys. That melted my heart. Can you react to Always next please, another power ballad but I think you'll be all in for hearing it. That and Livin' On A Prayer. I also love their song Bad Medicine which is a bit more rock and less ballad if that's what you're looking for. As far as the shredding and piano on the mountain top, apparently the music video producer wanted Jon up there, but he said "I was on top of a mountain in 'Blaze of Glory', send them" (Richie Sambora and David Bryan)!!! My first thoughts are it's all show, I mean where's the power source for the electric guitar? And maybe it's a fake piano, though maybe they did airlift a real one up there, who knows. They were really up there though, special effects weren't that great when this came out and I think we'd notice if it was green screen, which is all they had back then I think.
If you're in the mood (or feel the need) for a heart-warming ballad, a recommendation likely not well known by this channel's usual followers is Emerson, Lake and Palmer's "I'll Be Watching Over You." This giant, gentle cuddle of a song by Greg Lake is the antithesis of Sting's ode to stalking of the same name. If you don't think it appropriate for a bunch of metal fans, use it yourself when you get down to remind you of the love from your fans, and draw strength from it, our gift to you.❤❤❤
No, they brought the mountain to the studio and hoisted the band up. They were glued to the mountain for health and safety reasons. The mountain was then returned to it's original position. Glad to help 😜
Bon Jovi's best songs came out once the hair era ended and they tranistioned into the raw sound of the 90s. Keep The Faith is their best work for me, and to a degree These Days. You should listen to their masterpiece called Dry County.
This was my wife's song. She passed in 2021. I think of her everytime I hear this. Our first date was going to the Bon Jovi Slippery When Wet Tour concert in Cleveland, Ohio 1987
So to hear that brother , I'm glad you have those memories.. she's awlays with you
sorry for your loss, i hope this song brings back great memories.
bro.. deep. may she rest in peace. I am an 80's child, we had slippery when wet vanille record at home. still own it.
Sorry for your loss mate. I met the girl that would become my wife in 1987. I lost her in 2019 myself. I know the loss.
@@Daehawk I'm sorry for your loss as well brother. I understand your pain.

Incredibly well said, and very true!
*Yes, Richie Sambora was up there on that mountain-top.* 🎸🎵🔥
done way before the days of CGI
The blonde in the first verse, his guitar. The mistress in theast verse, is the stage. She calls him to be in her spotlight. He won't be alone, the fans, but he's still lonely
Jon Bon Jovi was very smart, he was the only one that had the recording contract out of the band, he paid his band as employees, he made them all philthy Rich.

He has some really catchy hits, one of those guys that had at least one song that everybody liked.
He got that from Springsteen. Smart business guys.
Keep The Faith and In These Arms for more Bon Jovi
That mountain scene was the reason slash played in front of the white church in the desert in November Rain.
well, don't know about that one. Bed of Roses was released about a year *after* November Rain, so... 🤔
@t-man78 well that's what I saw on UA-cam. Live and learn.
This is one of my favorites. When I was younger I would go to a friend's house to listen to the guys jam and play songs. One of the guys is now playing with Bon Jovi. He put up a guitar video of him playing on UA-cam. Bon Jovi contacted him and the rest is history. This also reminds me of what I did for a woman that I believe to be the ultimate woman for me.

My aunt introduced me to them back in the 80s and everytime I think of her the song....never say goodbye plays in my head....r.i.p. auntie.
I know it's unusual for a drummer to give a guitarist a complement, but Richie Sambora is one of my favs. His feel for each song is amazing, never overplays even though he has the chops. He's all about adding exactly what the song needs, dude is unreal.
Not only that, Bon Jovi songs wouldn't be the same without his vocals.
@@aleg2716they’d be just fine with somebody else’s vocals. Y’all act like he was Elvis.
Aileen you never half to apologize for speaking your mind that's why we are here to see how the music makes you feel and think. Keep up the great work Aileen hope you are having a great day ❤️
Jon’s vocals are amazing in this song…the emotion he delivers. Gives me shivers.
I can remember their first hit Runaway coming out and a friend said "They're gonna be big" and he was right.
Bon Jovi is amazing! There's a few that I recommend. "Lay Your Hands On Me," (official video), "This Ain't A Love Song" (video), "You Give Love a Bad Name." If you want to see a live performance, I recommend "Dry County" Live at Wembley 1995, "Always" from Wembley, 1995, or "Keep The Faith" Giants Stadium, 2001. Great reactions!
Bon Jovi - Dry County (Wembley 1995)
Keep the Faith sheperds Bush 2002!!!!!
Dry county 1993 Hamburg even better I think. Should hear this one!
Great song ...
I was there
Bon Jovi have the best rock ballads! Their ultimate is "Always", IMO.

So insane how fast you’ve gotten almost 310k and you barely just hit 300k 😭🖤 This song is one of my moms favs so I’m very happy you’re doing this 🥹
Yes they truly were on top of that mountain playing their instruments
Wow- even I didn't know (for sure) about that... thanks for enlightening us with this information !!! 🏔⛰🏞😀
Jon and his wife have been together since before he made it big and are still together til today.
This was “Our song” when it came out in 1992. The “Blonde” in his bed is a metaphor for his Gibson guitar. His “Mistress” calling him to be in the spotlight is the stage to play another concert.
I've been a huge Bon Jovi fan since I was a kid and I'm 52 now.
Always
For me their best song
Also of note... this was before drones... so they're doing all that on the mountain top, with a helicopter (most likely) flying around them.
Wow- even I didn't know (for sure) about that... thanks for enlightening us with this information !!! 🏔⛰🏞😀
Wonderful harmonies on the chorus . Spinetingling .
Do you read minds??? Lol. I've been watching so many reactions to this song recently, and then you post. Eerie!
When I watched this band live, EVERYONE lit their lighters and put up their phone lights. This was a deep moment, and Jon dedicated it to his wife, with whom he had celebrated his 20th anniversary with just a few months beforehand. it was the first time I cried at a concert, and it wouldn't be the last...

My dad loves Bed of roses, he's passed away 2 years ago and i cry every time i hear that beautiful song😢💔

so in d, like me? coz no one can sing this crazy f. maybe Freddie Mercury
@@NativC2ndChannel probably, not too knowledgeable what key I sing in, but the high notes are definitely done deeper
Times 100
Wish I was there. Congrats
If you ever get the chance you should check out the acoustic album This Left Feels Right.

"Always" their number 1 all time single
yes unbelievable good song

This is was the 80's and 90's Everything was real. Lov.
One Bon Jovi song that I love that I feel is underrated is "Lie to Me". I get the same emotions as when I first heard Bead of Roses.
legend has it that JBJ had a killer hangover as he was writing this song
Never say goodbye, always or I'll be there for you.
They are one of my favorite bands of all time. You definitely should react to "Lay Your Hands on Me" next.
Richie's high harmony is so smooth.
Bon Jovi is famous for their power ballads
We used to hear this at the skating rink in the early 90's, and just DREAM about a love that made us feel like the song does. I'm gonna sound like an old lady for a minute, but I wish music was still made like this. Beautifully arranged, but so honest and vulnerable.

They choppered them and the piano in for the video... great song, great band.
Bon Jovi are the kings of power ballads
Maybe pop-rock ballads, but Journey is the undisputed king of the Power Ballad
@@alexandermacphearson4379 Ok. I was being hyperbolic. Bon Jovi is one of the best, there.
Can u imagine being the woman that he wrote this for?!!? His whole Young Guns II album was doooooope. Hidden gem, "Wants Fe"
I have a song in mind my wife and i listen to that is so personal to my wife and myself. I am a 6ft 5in 270 llb construction worker ( GUYS ARE NO SUPPOSED TO CRY ) But this song is so personal to our familiy and friends.

While you’re listening to Bon Jovi, their song Always is top tier 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 you’ll love it
Nobody ever reacts to my favourite Bon Jovi song, "Keep the faith" 😭😭😭
I agree. Keep The Faith is an amazing song!🔥
It has been played nonstop in the early 90's... yet no reaction videos...
Came out when i had my first girlfriend. A lot of Bon Jovi was played when we were alone together.Also, listen to the low licks Richie is playing, love them so much. The high one is obvious, but especially when he plays it low, thats so cool. Slash and Richie, the reasons that made me pick up guitar. I also wanted to stand on top of a mountain with a hat and sound that good while my guitar isn't even plugged in.
Try "Lay your hands on me".. Much more upbeat fun song. If that's what you're looking for. And yes they were up on that mountain for real. 😁
Bed of Roses is a classic ballad. As always, another great reaction. If you continue on your Bon Jovi journey I would recommend Dry County, it's another great song with some brilliant guitar work. Keep up the great work, much love.
Some of the best lyricism ever in a rock song: "I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is," "With an ironclad fist I wake up and French kiss the morning," "I'm so far away each step that I take's on my way home," "Tonight I won't be alone but you know that don't mean I'm not lonely." Beautiful. Now you need to hear some pure fun, upbeat Bon Jovi: You Give Love a Bad Name or Bad Medicine fits the bill.
This song gets me in my feels every time. I'm glad you got the experience too!

Bon Jovi wrote and performed the soundtrack for both Movies
Awesome video. One of my all time favorites. Great reaction video as well!
Layne Staley, Made an album outside of Alice n Chains, the band is called Mad Season… Listen to ( Wake Up.) not many know of this album.
Hi Aileen 😊 Fantastically awesome reaction to Bon Jovi's Bed of Roses 😊👍 Yes, we will absolutely take the blame for sending you this great music 😊 I echo the sediments of other UA-camrs by saying the reason we enjoy your reactions is because you're real and you express your feelings and we don't mind how long you talk because you are enjoying our music for the first time just like we did way back when so we enjoy your reactions and that's why we love you😊 Keep up the good work you're awesome 😊👍 All of the recommendations for Bon Jovi reactions by you are fantastic plus other artists recommendations too😊 I will enjoy your reactions to all of them 😊 Have a great day you and Arya 😊👍
When you return to Bon Jovi I would humbly request you listen to either “It’s My Life” or “Living on a Prayer”. You will enjoy them immensely! Loving your channel!!
"You give Love a bad name" next, great reaction!!
Every bed has its thorns.
Haha, 80’skids see what you did there. How Poison-ous of you!
Jon just got a famous daughter-in-law recently. His son married Millie Bobbie Brown.
I love the way u smile aileen ❤❤❤ when ur reacting to every music video, keep uploading more rections ! ❤❤
Man I miss the 80's and 90's.
I love your reaction to this ballad. It always brings me to tears
For some good rocking hits from Bon Jovi, you have to listen to "Living On A Prayer", a rock classic anthem. Also check "Bad Medicine", "You Give Love A Bad Name", and "Lay Your Hands On Me." For similar type ballads, check "Always", and "I'll Be There For You"
"Blind love is true" ❤
Once again, your expressions show how the music hits you. 🙂 Check out Living on a Prayer. Right up there with Wanted as a signature tune.
Thank you. I’ve watched several of your reactions, picking songs that I always loved. Without fail, your reactions cause my eyes to well up…..so cool that someone feels it like we all do.
Great song and enjoyed your reaction as always. And don't apologize for talking and getting excited, its great!
Bon Jovi was the king of ballads and catchy songs like this, "Never Say Goodbye", "In These Arms", "I'll be there for You". For something more energetic, try the "Born to be my Baby", the "Living on a Prayer" anthem, or "It's my Life". Tons of hits.
Love your reactions and love this song ..
Definitely a power serenading masterpiece
"Runaway" is another Bon Jovi song I think you might enjoy.
Saw Bon Jovi in concert in three different decades saw them in the 90s the 2000s and in the 2010s
Info dumps are not only allowed but encouraged ❤
Great reaction to an amazing rock band. Whilst watching this I looked up Jon Bon Jovi and was surprised to read that "During a stop in Los Angeles on The New Jersey Syndicate Tour he secretly took a trip to Las Vegas and married his high school sweetheart, Dorethea Hurley, at the Graceland Wedding Chapel. The couple have four children: A daughter, Stephanie, and the boys. That melted my heart. Can you react to Always next please, another power ballad but I think you'll be all in for hearing it. That and Livin' On A Prayer. I also love their song Bad Medicine which is a bit more rock and less ballad if that's what you're looking for.
As far as the shredding and piano on the mountain top, apparently the music video producer wanted Jon up there, but he said "I was on top of a mountain in 'Blaze of Glory', send them" (Richie Sambora and David Bryan)!!! My first thoughts are it's all show, I mean where's the power source for the electric guitar? And maybe it's a fake piano, though maybe they did airlift a real one up there, who knows. They were really up there though, special effects weren't that great when this came out and I think we'd notice if it was green screen, which is all they had back then I think.
High harmony is Richie Sambora - as well on Living on a Prayer.
He had (dunno what he got now) a great set of pipes as well.
If you're in the mood (or feel the need) for a heart-warming ballad, a recommendation likely not well known by this channel's usual followers is Emerson, Lake and Palmer's "I'll Be Watching Over You."

Saw bon jovi live about 5 or 6 years ago and man they can still put on an amazing show!
You should check out "You want to make a memory". Its another great song by him.
This song was in the movie bird on a wire with Goldie Hawn and Mel gibbson
I knew that Sambora was taken by helicopter to the mountain
Awesome reaction. One song I think you’d like is Living On A Prayer by Bob Jovi. One of my favourites.
No, they brought the mountain to the studio and hoisted the band up. They were glued to the mountain for health and safety reasons. The mountain was then returned to it's original position. Glad to help 😜
Bon Jovi's best songs came out once the hair era ended and they tranistioned into the raw sound of the 90s. Keep The Faith is their best work for me, and to a degree These Days. You should listen to their masterpiece called Dry County.
Bon Jovi has so many amazing songs in their catalogue - you'll have plenty of ammo for lots more videos.
jon an richie together had the most amazing harmonies, never heard again such a shame. 2 wonderful voices.
I LOVE THE HOLY GHOST! Props to Bon Jovi for mentioning the Holy Ghost. It makes JBJovi that much tougher. God bless and Rock on!
Check out the live version of this! Bon Jovi was pretty special live
Amazing reaction 😊
Jon is a ballad king!
"Bed of Roses" is more the standard Bon Jovi music I think.
If you want more of the "Western" feel, the album "Blaze of Glory" is full of it.
BON JOVI STUDIO SONS LISTEN ’’ THESE OPEN ARMS’’,’’LIVING IN SIN’’, BORN TO BE MY BABY ’’, ’’RUNAWAY ’’ I GOT YOU GIRL’’
He has a songs in Spanish too. Como yo nadie te ha amado… definitely a must listen
Bon Jovi has the cash to put a piano on the moon if he wants lol
