Jamel, I think that I speak for many of your viewers when I say, We Love You! The joy and comfort you have brought to all of us during this time. Keep the faith and stay strong!
My husband made me late to one of their concerts when I was 6 months pregnant, and when we got to our seats the girl next to me said: "You just missed Jon, he just flew over (on his harness) next to your seat and sang a song. The look I gave my husband....
These guys are just as awesome live, I've seen them as a customer and as someone working a venue and they never disappoint. The last concert of theirs I went to they did FIVE encores. They just kept coming back for us. It was also obvious that even after 30+ yrs they still love what they do and the audience could feel it. Love them!!
If it were possible, I would take you back to the day when this song came out, Jamel, and show you how much fun we were having dancing and partying to this song! It.... was.... GLORIOUS! Have a great day!
I can 100% back this up. Teens at the time were losing their minds with this song cranked up to 11 on a daily basis! And here, in 2020, it's considered one of the greatest rock songs of all time.
My favorite Bon Jovi song!!! Doesn't get any better than this .especially the song's 'introduction'....In the opening bars of "Livin' on a Prayer," when Sambora's guitar almost seems to be saying "a whoa whoa, a whoa whoa," that's actually Richie Sambora shaping his guitar's notes into "whoa" sounds using his mouth.
Saw them live when they were first taking off to the stratosphere. He was so good at working the crowd. They opened for Rat, two weeks later, they weren't an opener anymore.
I’ve been a fan of these guys since 1989 & will forever be a fan 🤘😁🤘. I’ve seen them in concert 11 times over the years & it was so worth EVERY dollar I spent ✊️😎👍
This was the very first song of theirs I ever heard while on holidays in the US “back in the day” & I was instantly “hooked” 🤘😝. Jamel... This was typical of the 80’s.... BIG hair, BIG outfits & wild ass rock 🤘😜🤘
As a long-time Bon Jovi-fan, "She Don't Know me" is one of the few songs that BJ themselves didn't write. So even though it's a cool song, it's not really fitting for someone getting to know the group. "Bed of Roses", however, is a gem. One of their best songs, in my opinion.
@Maria Ramirez honestly I'm not sure. Guitar Center stores may have them, but you probably have to order it online because I haven't seen them in stores.
Seen Bon Jovi in 86/87 when I was in the Navy. Thank you. Try doing some April Wine- like to rock, Sign of the gypsy queen, and just between you and me. They are a great band from late 70's. Keep up with the great job you do for all of us
Jon's dad was a hair dresser and used to cut Jon's hair. His younger brother used to sell some locks of his hair to his high school friends. Cute story
One of the all-time great rock songs....without a doubt (as Garth would say). I didn't fully appreciate Bon Jovi when they were at their peak but a few years later I realized their greatness. This song is best enjoyed AS LOUD AS POSSIBLE!!!!!....but please don't bother your neighbors or others....be courteous and considerate.
That ua-ua- u-u-ua sound is the guitar player Richie Sambora who uses a Talk Box. The guitar signal goes into a tiny speaker that is connected to a tube. The other end of the tube is close to the Mic Richie uses for singing (he is an outstanding singer, by the way, does most of the background and harmony voices). Riche plays guitar with the tube in his mouth while he sings. That makes the guitar sound like it‘s talking. Peter Frampton (do you feel like we do / show me the way) and Joe Walsh use this effect a lot, too.
Love rockin and grooving out with ya even when you know the song- keep em coming Jamel- Love our Mr. Video soooo much too- he did Daryls house but..had no clue who Daryl was.. oh my.. still love him tho, for sure- someone requested it I’m sure. But he needs to at least know who Hall & Oats are and hear the originals first in my opinion- ❤️✌️
1986. I'm ten years old. My best friend is SO excited as he tells me about this music video that's in black in white until the singer "kicks" (ok it was a knee but TVs weren't that good back then!) and it goes to color and how I have to see it. And he was right. This was a jam.
Holy Flashback! I saw them outside of DC over 30 years ago. What you can't see or hear in this video is the sound of women screaming. Now Bon Jovi can bang. I was on the floor and could barely hear them. OMG, the screaming! It was insane !
Bon Jovi released "Livin' on a Prayer" as a single on October 31, 1986. The Lost Boys was released on July 31, 1987. So yeah, some stunt tech overlap there most likely.
The sound being made at the beginning of the song is being produced by a talk box. It's an effects unit with a tube that the guitarist puts in his mouth, usually by a microphone, and using the cavity of his mouth, shapes the sound content of the note coming from the guitar, thus in this song, the verbal "whoa, whoa, whoa" riff.
I was 24 when this came out; it was directly in the CENTER of my wheel house. we had Barracks Anthems while i was in the military, and this is one where everyone in the barracks knew all the words; you could hear us out on the road. great band. great musician. 35 years later he's still performing like it was the 80s, except with a hair cut.
that opening sound is Richie Sambora using a Vocoder. Peter Frampton used one on Do You Feel (Like I Do) and Joe Perry uses one at the beginning of Aerosmith's Sweet Emotion. Its basically an electrified voice box that works in tandem with the guitar.
Jon Bon Jovi is one gorgeous and talented man. Richie Sambora too. I've seen them a few times in concert. Just as good in person. Nothing more fun than being in front of the stage and interacting with the band during an 80's concert.😍💗🤘💋
Would love to see a reaction to the Bon Jovi song, Runaway. It is the first Bon Jovi song I recall hearing prior to their album Slippery When Wet which brought the fame. Thanks.
Bon Jovi is out here still rocking it too. Just last year he released another album named 2020. One of my favorite songs from it is "Brothers in Arms".
Two Bon Jovi videos Two references to Keifer (lots of names) Sutherland. Young Guns II (2) Sutherland in both movies. Watch them. Recognize most of this cast Sound track is all Bon Jovi Blaze of Glory
My little sister was a huge Bon Jovi fan. I remember helping her study for vocabulary tests by setting the definitions to the tune of Bon Jovi songs. She got really good grades on those tests.
One of the first bands that I totally obsessed over !!! I could play all the guitar and bass parts for this album (Slippery When Wet) 7800 Fahrenheit and Bon Jovi ..... also got the others as they were released too ...... seen them live over 400 times to date !!! You need to check out Never Say Goodbye, You Give Love A Bad Name, Raise Your Hands...... then These Days, Born To Be My Baby, Silent Night, Only Lonely, Lay Your Hands On Me, Dry County, Keep The Faith, Ill Sleep When I’m Dead, Have A Nice Day, This House Is Not For Sale..... the current single from 2020 Do What You Can too ..... there are so many others but this is a good starter
Peter Frampton's Talk Box is called, "The Framptone". So, "The Framptone" is the instrument used in this video. Here is some more info on that: Frampton's talkbox featured in Bon Jovi's number one hit - MPR News Staff - March 13, 2017 3:50 p.m. - Today's Morning Edition music is from "Livin' on a Prayer" by Bon Jovi which was number one on the Billboard popchart 30 years ago today. The song was recorded using a talkbox - a device that was connected to Richie Sambora's guitar. The sound from the guitar is fed through a plastic tube into Sambora's mouth. By changing the shape of his mouth, Sambora can alter the sound which is then picked up by a regular microphone.
That sound at the beginning is called a Talkbox, Its a tube that goes into the guitarists mouth with the guitar sound fed through the tube from a pedal on the floor, the guitarist then moves his mouth to change the sound and its then picked up by a mic.
This was released during my senior year of high school. Magical times. I quickly got burned out on this song as it was overplayed. You Give Love a Bad Name was released before this. They went on an incredible run from here. An earlier song of theirs called "Runaway" still hits hard for me.
Raise your hand if remember when MTV played music videos and you saw this video 1 million times🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️
We watched it go from snow to MTV!
🙋🏻♀️
😆🖐🏽😆🖐🏽😆
MTV's Most Wanted with Adam Curry. Junior High dreams!!!
slippery when wet was awesome
Jon has been married to his highschool sweet heart for 30 some years. That's rare in Rock n Roll
Barry Gibb has been married to his wife for 50 years!
A good man, hes done some very charitable things.
Bono as well.
John Kay (Steppenwolf) has been married to his wife Jutta for close to 50 years, they met in 1965. Take the Magic Carpet Ride!

The 70’s and 80’s were the best time to be young and stupid. Loved it!
And I was certainly both of those back in the day 😂
Yup!!!! We lived to tell the tale!!
@@barbarabutterfield2679 yup. Stories I have are legendary. I should write a book 🤣
@@michellewhaley3489 I subscribed to you. Please let me know when you write that book and link me to the website. 😁
Was right there with ya !!!...so much fun !!
One of my all times favorite groups I still listen to this these days. Any true fans I'm sure still do.
They always looked like they were having so much fun.
And I still have a massive crush on John Bon Jovi. He has aged like a fine wine.
His voice unfortunately has not
One of the ULTIMATE anthems from the 80's!!!!
I agree with you Jamel, the 70's and 80's were an awesome time!
@ted ritola I agree Ted! Thank you for the info.
Jon is even handsomer now if that’s possible! He has a free restaurant in Jersey for poor people. His Dad, Mr Bongiovi , styled his hair!
Some people really age like fine wine.
First time I’ve seen you sing with a song! That’s when you know it’s good.
Jamel, I think that I speak for many of your viewers when I say, We Love You! The joy and comfort you have brought to all of us during this time. Keep the faith and stay strong!
My husband made me late to one of their concerts when I was 6 months pregnant, and when we got to our seats the girl next to me said: "You just missed Jon, he just flew over (on his harness) next to your seat and sang a song. The look I gave my husband....
Coincidentally, Bon Jovi actually has a song (and album) titled "Keep The Faith." You'd like it.
A really awesome song!
I just asked for Dry County probably my fav track by them.
These guys are just as awesome live, I've seen them as a customer and as someone working a venue and they never disappoint. The last concert of theirs I went to they did FIVE encores. They just kept coming back for us. It was also obvious that even after 30+ yrs they still love what they do and the audience could feel it. Love them!!
The key change at the end of this song always gets me. Please do Bon Jovi's "Wanted Dead or Alive."
If it were possible, I would take you back to the day when this song came out, Jamel, and show you how much fun we were having dancing and partying to this song! It.... was.... GLORIOUS!
Have a great day!
I can 100% back this up. Teens at the time were losing their minds with this song cranked up to 11 on a daily basis! And here, in 2020, it's considered one of the greatest rock songs of all time.
80s arena concerts were the best!
80s was the shit good times!
The anthem of a generation
Great song to dance and drive too.
His dad was his hairstylist if I recall correctly. :)
You are correct 🙂
@Maria Ramirez yes, his dad was his hairstylist.
Loved the Lost Boys reference.
Yup. Made me laugh.
😂😂
Just watched that movie...still good!
I did too - and it makes sense as it is from the same era.
"Sleep all day. Party all night. Never grow old. Never die. It's fun to be a vampire."
Please react to you Give Love a bad name from Bon Jovi.. This man can sing even a telephone book and make it look awesome
Thank you brother Jam ♥️
The late '80s. Best time of my life. Song will never get old.
Tommy & Gina featured in this song, is the main characters in a series of songs by Bon Jovi :)
Хорошая задумка!)
At least three, possibly four
Oh man, I used to sit in front of the TV and wait for this to come on MTV. I was obsessed. Still love Bon Jovi.
My favorite Bon Jovi song!!! Doesn't get any better than this .especially the song's 'introduction'....In the opening bars of "Livin' on a Prayer," when Sambora's guitar almost seems to be saying "a whoa whoa, a whoa whoa," that's actually Richie Sambora shaping his guitar's notes into "whoa" sounds using his mouth.
That sound was the "voicebox" we've heard in many songs. Just used as an accent instead of forming words like Frampton did with it.
i remember being in 5th grade singing this song with my best friend playing tetherball on the playground. simpler times man
Bon Jovi New Jersey was one of the first TAPES I ever bought and I wore it out. The whole album is pretty bad ass!!
Great band with an even better frontman. Jon Bon Jovi is a great man. Even runs a restaurant for the homeless.
Several. He’s truly great. 💜
Saw them live when they were first taking off to the stratosphere. He was so good at working the crowd. They opened for Rat, two weeks later, they weren't an opener anymore.
Saw them April 3rd 1987.... I was only 12 but it was a rocking show! My 3rd live concert! Thanks for the memories!
Its just a classic isn't it you can't listen to it without singing along.😁
I’ve been a fan of these guys since 1989 & will forever be a fan 🤘😁🤘. I’ve seen them in concert 11 times over the years & it was so worth EVERY dollar I spent ✊️😎👍
The device used for the vocalization is called a talk box. Worth your time to look it up! I'm glad you enjoyed this song!
You dated yourself. Lost Boys is my favorite soundtrack. And this is one of my favorite cassettes. And yes I aged myself. (I also had 8 tracks)
I knew I had raised my kids right when they busted out a capella singing this while we all washed dishes
“What is that?” That’s called a talk box. It filters your voice similar to a whaw whaw pedal. It was made famous by Peter F4ampton.
Oh wow! The very first concert I went to was Skid Row and Jovi in 1989. My mother took me to it.
This song has become the anthem of Bon Jovi. Audiences react and become part of the band during the chorus. Great song. A classic.
Gotta love '80s Bon Jovi.
just adding another loverboy song that was so much fun is "Loving every minute of it" ty
I love Bon Jovi, seen them 3 times now, and I can say for the old songs the energy is still the same at the concerts. Good times.
This was the very first song of theirs I ever heard while on holidays in the US “back in the day” & I was instantly “hooked” 🤘😝. Jamel... This was typical of the 80’s.... BIG hair, BIG outfits & wild ass rock 🤘😜🤘
This was one of the biggest rock songs of the 80s. A true rock anthem.
And with a so good message.
I was just thinking, they used to make songs that would lift you up. Gotta love the 80s!
“Bed of Roses”...and a real early Bon Jovi song...”She Don’t Know Me”.
As a long-time Bon Jovi-fan, "She Don't Know me" is one of the few songs that BJ themselves didn't write. So even though it's a cool song, it's not really fitting for someone getting to know the group.
"Bed of Roses", however, is a gem. One of their best songs, in my opinion.
She don't know me as well as roulette are me favorite songs but most won't even remember them lol
Eighties music is the best. I still listen to it and it was a great time to be a teenager!
It's called a talk box, it's a guitar pedal that runs through the amp to your microphone
He must have forgotten that because he already talked about that once when he did a reaction to Peter Frampton.
@Maria Ramirez honestly I'm not sure. Guitar Center stores may have them, but you probably have to order it online because I haven't seen them in stores.
They had it all...gorgeous and talented. Met them quite a few times.
Seen Bon Jovi in 86/87 when I was in the Navy. Thank you. Try doing some April Wine- like to rock, Sign of the gypsy queen, and just between you and me. They are a great band from late 70's. Keep up with the great job you do for all of us
A couple of other good rockers from Bon Jovi are Wanted Dead Or Alive from this album and Lay Your Hands On Me from Bon Jovi's New Jersey album.
Jamel. I am a 3 time cancer survivor and I appreciate these old songs so much.!They really lift my spirits in this wacky world today. Thanku. !😇
This song is played every night in every club/bar in New Jersey, and everybody sings along.
Jon's dad was a hair dresser and used to cut Jon's hair. His younger brother used to sell some locks of his hair to his high school friends. Cute story
One of the all-time great rock songs....without a doubt (as Garth would say). I didn't fully appreciate Bon Jovi when they were at their peak but a few years later I realized their greatness. This song is best enjoyed AS LOUD AS POSSIBLE!!!!!....but please don't bother your neighbors or others....be courteous and considerate.
Best hair ever... Everyone aspired to it.
This song means a lot during these times..Love Bon Jovi 💓
This comes from the album Slippery When Wet which has multiple classics
I have always loved this song. The sentiments have become relevant all over again.
That ua-ua- u-u-ua sound is the guitar player Richie Sambora who uses a Talk Box. The guitar signal goes into a tiny speaker that is connected to a tube. The other end of the tube is close to the Mic Richie uses for singing (he is an outstanding singer, by the way, does most of the background and harmony voices). Riche plays guitar with the tube in his mouth while he sings. That makes the guitar sound like it‘s talking. Peter Frampton (do you feel like we do / show me the way) and Joe Walsh use this effect a lot, too.
So badass to see someone who enjoys music as much as I do
Lost Boys is one of the greatest movies ever, with one of the best soundtracks ever. Lol.
Love rockin and grooving out with ya even when you know the song- keep em coming Jamel- Love our Mr. Video soooo much too- he did Daryls house but..had no clue who Daryl was.. oh my.. still love him tho, for sure- someone requested it I’m sure.

Amen...livin' on a prayer...and so it is...bless from up in here ...sista in 🇨🇦🌬♾🙏🎸
I love your reactions. You make songs that have been the background music of my life exciting again.
That sound on the guitar is one your favorite things, the tube! Absolutely 80s
"You live for the fight when that's all that you've got." Been there.
Nice call on “Lost Boys”. One of my favorite movies! 🎶 🧛♂️
Love this band live! I've seen them on five different times in my life, equally awesome every time.
Love how well this video captures the energy and positive vibes you felt at one of their concerts. Yet another brand of sexy done well.
one of the greatest songs ever recorded.
Yeah, seriously, any videos you can watch, no matter what bands, are so worth it. So so so so so so a million
that opening sound is Richie Sambora using a Vocoder. Peter Frampton used one on Do You Feel (Like I Do) and Joe Perry uses one at the beginning of Aerosmith's Sweet Emotion. Its basically an electrified voice box that works in tandem with the guitar.

OMG..... they look sooo young. I used to love this song and BON JOVI always had great music.
Saw them twice in concert and they were such a entertaining band♡
Loved this song when I was a kid...still love it to this day!!
Two Bon Jovi videos
Two references to Keifer (lots of names) Sutherland.
Young Guns II (2)
Sutherland in both movies. Watch them. Recognize most of this cast
Sound track is all Bon Jovi
Blaze of Glory
My little sister was a huge Bon Jovi fan. I remember helping her study for vocabulary tests by setting the definitions to the tune of Bon Jovi songs. She got really good grades on those tests.
There's something about 80s music, doesn't matter who the band is, but it makes you feel so alive! I LOVE 80s music
My favorite Bon Jovi song of all!
One of the first bands that I totally obsessed over !!! I could play all the guitar and bass parts for this album (Slippery When Wet) 7800 Fahrenheit and Bon Jovi ..... also got the others as they were released too ...... seen them live over 400 times to date !!!
You need to check out Never Say Goodbye, You Give Love A Bad Name, Raise Your Hands...... then These Days, Born To Be My Baby, Silent Night, Only Lonely, Lay Your Hands On Me, Dry County, Keep The Faith, Ill Sleep When I’m Dead, Have A Nice Day, This House Is Not For Sale..... the current single from 2020 Do What You Can too ..... there are so many others but this is a good starter
How I missed this reaction, have no clue, but so glad it came back up so I could watch! THanks again!
Peter Frampton's Talk Box is called, "The Framptone". So, "The Framptone" is the instrument used in this video. Here is some more info on that:

Just was asking if you like Christmas songs. Merry Christmas darling by the carpenters is a great song. Loved listening to bon jovi!
Thank you for keep great music alive
That sound at the beginning is called a Talkbox, Its a tube that goes into the guitarists mouth with the guitar sound fed through the tube from a pedal on the floor, the guitarist then moves his mouth to change the sound and its then picked up by a mic.
This was released during my senior year of high school. Magical times. I quickly got burned out on this song as it was overplayed. You Give Love a Bad Name was released before this. They went on an incredible run from here. An earlier song of theirs called "Runaway" still hits hard for me.
Jersey band. Richie Sambora is underrated. Talk box on guitar ... when you asked "what was that?"
Soundtrack of my life. Love this. Thanks for sharing your reaction.
Road trip songs, like Born To Run, some songs were meant to be sung loud as you’re driving fast! Bon Jovi’s It’s My Life was always the favorite.
The sound you’re asking about was Richie Sambora using a talk box a.k.a. The Tube!
Bon Jovi got us through LIFE!!!!
This song will make you move and make you sing. Its become a classic
