    I think people forget just how talented Richie Sambora is, yes Jon was an incredible singer but Richie on guitar and singing is just something else.

      @@christopherone1 I do think Richie leaving had something to do with Jon maybe NOT acknowledging just how very very important his role was in the bands's success even though he was first hired for song writing first and singing and being a musician second. his role turned into so very💕 much more.
      I read where Richie said being in the group was like being in the Mafia. whatever that means. Jon did say him leaving messed him up for bout three whole years. he said on the stage when they were receiving the hall of fame award that Richie was his right arm.
      sometimes it is just too much on the ego for the front man and namesake of the band to admit that one person in the band is just as important as he is especially in the eyes of most of their fans.

      @@parisjok5311 It's a BAND. EVERYONE IN IT is important. If Richie had problems, maybe he should have brought them up instead of walking out on the day of a show with no notice. I don't care how big his contribution was, or what his problem was, that was a shitty thing to do to the FANS, many of whom probably paid a week's pay for their ticket. But I guess his ego is all that matters, right?

      I will never understand why these kinds of singers and songwriters who have been extremely successful are still made fun of by the top critics in their field. even after selling over 120 million albums and the song Always reaching over ONE BILLION hits on spotify and so many other awards they are made fun of by some. I can understand 100% why these front men and name sake of these bands have to have huge egos cause so many are telling u that u ain"t shit no matter what.
      The famous extremely talented Bee Gees went through the exact same thing!! Even after the huge success of the Fever album they were made fun of. At one time no radio station would play any of their songs so they started writing and making number one hits for other famous singers. that is a brutal business and is only for the very few that can stomach it which is not many.

    Man... I miss seeing this duo in action... It's sad they're not together anymore and it's also sad that Jon doesn't have this vocal range anymore and that he's facing so many difficulties in his live performance...

    Bon Jovi was my first ever rock n' roll concert when I was 13 years old, and I was hypnotized by Jon and Ritchie was obviously the second in the row, hahahaha!!! This concert bonded me with one of my besties in life and made that night unforgettable, it was magical! By the end of it I remember my friend and I got one of the cups Jon drank in the concert, we kept it as a souvenir of that night for such a long time, what a crazy thing to do, but we were crazy chicks back then and life was pure ecstasy!!!!

      What about RDJ and Chris Hemsworth in late 00s early 2010s in The MCU
      Also in film at the same time as Richie and Jon Brad Pitt and George Clooney.
      Richie, George and RDJ.
      The roughly handsome brunettes that so many girls consider more manly.
      the more out going ones feeling more at ease on interviews.
      The funny guys
      Then Brad, Jon and Chris Hemsworth.
      The beautiful ones, the ken doll type of beauty.
      Also while they can be funny they are slightly more serious and maybe a little more reserved.
      So yeah three great and sexy blonde brunette duos in entertainment
      Jon Bin Jovi / Richie Sambora
      Brad Pitt/George Clooney
      RdJ/ Chris Hemsworth.
      Ok on the marvel Brothers im cheating a bitt. RDJ's true hot soul brother was Chris Evans.
      But I found Hemsworth hotter and still RDJ and Chris Hemsworth did get along pretty well.
      But honestly the dynamic duo's in the MCU were either Evans/Hemsworth or RDJ/Evans.
