- Vocal Coach Reaction To Jon Bon Jovi - Livin On A Prayer - Ken Tamplin
Many years ago I was fortunate to have a small brush with the Monsters of Rock Festival throughout Europe.
On that bill were The Scorpions, Ozzy Osbourne, Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, Michael Schenker and a couple other artists.
It was fun getting to speak with and get up close and personal with these artists to see how they warmed up and to watch them perform at close range.
Not the least of which was Bon Jovi.
Jon was very warm and approachable.
Bon Jovi was a well-oiled machine with awesome lights, effects, sound and great stage presence.
I also realized that many of these Bon Jovi songs were very difficult to sing especially if you over sang the bottom and try to release and relax to go up top for the higher notes.
With that said I hope you enjoy my covering "Livin' On A Prayer" and keep in mind that I am a baritone singing way up into this registration. This is proof it can be done with the correct information and good old hard work.
Check out my and my student Alyona's version:
• Livin' On A Prayer - B...
• Livin On A Prayer - Bo...
I'll me posting a version by me in the near future.

Aside Jon Bon Jovi, richie sambora is also a great backing vocalist! Probably one of the best duos in rock history
Mr. Bounce! I can't disagree, Sambora doing his tribute for the troops was awesome as well.
Noel and Liam 😆
The BEST dúo Richie and jon
Richie Sambora's solo album was great from start to finish.
@@YouOnlyGetToDoItOnce layne and jerry.
I've always loved Bon Jovi growing up. Ritchie never got the real recognition that he deserved. I feel like he was very underrated in the music world.
Totally agree, and he is one of the greatest guitarists ever
Tonya Royland I agree also
Agreed 💯 👍
Jon and Richie
Are still the Best
Duo in Rock History! Hands Down!! ❤❤❤
They were indeed an awesome two!
Believe it or not, I was singing my lungs out with "Wooah Oooh!!" when you held out the "mic" to me.
Problem is, I got my headphones on. Getting weird stares from my family. I think my wife's already googling "mental institutes near you".
WTF 😂😂😂
When analyzing Bon Jovi vocals, please don't exclude David Bryan because he is the one doing the high pitch stuff. And moreover he has always been the one singing the high "Whoohah" part, not Jon.
i egree on that david doing it also perfectly the backing vocals
Exactly! Back in '86 ,before Jon shot his vocals, it was Jon and Dave hitting the high notes in the chorus and key change, Alec chipped in most times as well. I've never seen Richie sing those high notes live, which is interesting
I never knew that!
at least when Jon started struggling with the key change. Back in 1986 he could really hit those, just listen to Bradford 1986 :D
They don't do that anymore. Jon cops out and holds the mic out to the crowd. Disappointing, but time is ruthless.
Sambora is very underrated
Both his signing & guitar playing are very underrated
So.. Jon and Ritchie did such an amazing job when they went acoustic back in the 80s at the award show. Thise people did NOT appreciate how fricking AMAZING they wetet. Man, to have seen it LIVE!!!
Christie Kraczek RIGHT !!
If you want to see his more powerful voice you should check out his 1991 oscar performance of Blaze of glory or their 1992 mtv 'concert'.
Paco- thank you!
True.thats what i always Think if its about his voice.
Paco That performance is mindblowing
As my brother used to sing: "whoa, we're half-way there, whoa, living on my hair!"
Swamper60 Hahaha!
Jon and Ritchie are 2 of the best of all time. My favorite rock duo of all time. I miss Ritchie too. His "Stranger In This Town" has some of the most amazing vocal songs I've ever heard - songs that haunted me for years! And ya, when I've heard Jon in that Video in Wembly Stadium and other big stadiums, he does use a more nasal style than on his albums, but with Jon it always sounds amazing. Thanks for doing that.
Thanks for watching, Daniel!
Jon is the greatest!! especially at this concert!!
Bret Michaels Fanpage Great show!
Thanks for doing this Ken!! Bon Jovi is my all time favorite and I still listen to his latest music.
NOLI Awesome!
Wow! Been waiting for that for years from ya! Nice job 😊
The British Lad Thanks for viewing!
So pleased I got to grow up to all these bands.
Ken, what a fantastic video! Your reaction is priceless. Relished it so much.💞💞🌹🌹🥳🥳🤩👍🏻
Awesome! Been waiting, can't wait to hear your version of this song! 🤗
Thanks Dreamy Bokeh!
Bless you Ken, you're such a gentle soul.
Thanks Funkierthanafunkything!
That scream in Ill be there for you killed me, Wish he could still do it, I seen Ritchie do it not long ago, Im sure you seen love to get your take on that , Rock On
I always loved the beginning of this song with that "woah wah wah woah woah" and then the transition to "Johnny used to work on the docks" 👌
I've waited to see your reaction on Jon Bon Jovi not singing the chorus anymore, this just gold explanation.
Love your videos
Thanks CroPels!
Your reaction videos are GREAT!!!
It is Me Glad you think so!
John did great job in Always at that concept in 95. Love that version more than original recording. Richi is monster!
Always from that show IS PURE GOLD
You're always so happy and bright. It's like you have a spiritual glow around you bro. Definitely doing something right!
i have seen Bon Jovi in Chile at 2017 for my 18’ birthday(a gift from my mom, she loves him since decades) and he’s still a LEGEND, i love him
I hear a lot of twang in John's voice. It's unique and sort of goes with his looks, especially in songs like "Miracle" and "Always."
Thanks for sharing your perspective, VIDEOHEREBOB!
I'd be interested to see you react to Jon's vocals now and see if you can identify the issues and stuff he's got going on
James DodsworthThanks for the suggestion.
That was Wembley stadium 25th June 1995, I know I was at that show, it was amazing
Awesome reaction video Ken !! 😁🖒
Thanks dan!
The back vocal from Richie on I’d die for you are so insane. Listen to the 1995 version from that same concert, just after the solo.
Ritchie was totally underrated vocally! He has an incredible voice. He and Jon together sounded amazing!
Jon's winning smile is killing me! I love his stage presence. He's a huge talent and at the same a sweet and nice person. Their songs are top-shelf! I'll never say which I love more. Impossible!💗😘😘🤘🎸🎶
Richie and Jon are a perfect combination! Their voices were ment for each other!💖😍😍💕
Yeeeaaahhh!!! every time I like this channel more! ❤
Kisses from Argentina, Ken 😘
Awesome!
Great video. Thanks!. I was huge fan of Bon Jovi because of Richie....He is my idol forever. I am very sad that he left band but he is on his own way with his solo music and actually he started last year work on new album and i hope will be soon out maybe on his 60thBirthady this year or maybe on fall? Will see...I just will be support his music. I am sad about Jovi music since he left...And Jon voice is gone and broken permanently..I just dont undrstand why he need still touring...He dont have anymore to offer...
,, Once upon a time, not so long ago.. the legendary JOVIMAGIC..!!✨💕🤩
Awesome as always Ken. X
Thanks Lynne Kelly!
One of your best reactions Ken, loved it when you passed the mic on to your viewers!!!
Great analysis. Sambora never had the true credit to his work. I really like his tone or color voice. Yo should do some Sambora analysis. Please. 👏
you are my hero ken! Always great you are! love from Bangladesh
Thank you, Imrul! I'm not worthy!
@@kentamplin Thank you sir. You are very responsible for your listeners and viewers. That makes me very happy.
ken, of course you are worthy. You are just great!
I clearly remember when this album came out in 1986. I was 6 years old and my older cousin was cranking it on her stereo. It was that moment that I knew that I wanted to be a musician. I loved music but this grabbed me and moved me like nothing before it. There was something special about what Bon Jovi had on the first 3 albums that I wish they could get back.......and Alec John Such!
that key change at the end really will put the larynx into your eye balls
Haha! 😊
I enjoy your videos, Ken!
Swamper60 I'm really happy to hear that!
I Love When Richie Does “I’ll Be There For You”
My background is in film and I have to say, I love the format here much better than the longer shot of you sitting in front of your sound board. You rock that black shirt! 😊
Thanks!
Awesome reaction video Ken !! ☺🖒I'm singing along 😎🖒
My name in this song 😉 Richie Sambora is the MAN!! Loved his vocals, harmonies.. he helped make Jon..imo ❤️🎶 (auto correct kills me)
Gee Me 👍👍👍
They tune down a half step when they play live. Maybe a full step these days. Great song writing. Richie and Jon work so well together.
Kenny your videos are amazing! You have such an ace and laid back approach that I find so accessible when learning your vocal lessons. Ace to see you give such a shout out to the reason I started singing , I would love if you could do a series describing meeting some other singers, their technics and how they were as people. Your Ozzy comment had me in stitches. Keep on rocking in the free world dude, from Scotland !
Great reaction Ken, one of my favorite 80's rock band.....so interesting to hear your comments on the video, I learn so much from you, thanks again and do keep up the great work you do.
Nechia Lee Awesome! Thanks!
Its really hard to sing Bon Jovi Songs.Most of the Songs David and Richie helped him out on vocals
Being a woman who has a pretty wide range I have a hard time with some of their songs. Their ballads I'm okay with. But songs like this are a pain in the ass.
@@mcrchickenluvr true.hard to sing those high notes
They had to they had to help Jon when his voice gave out They are a Band of Brothers and always help each other. Why do you think they are still around today.
KEN TAMPLIN
You are Awesome!
BON JOVI is Awesome!
Thank you for sharing your reaction to Bon Jovi. I can't wait to hear what you sound like! I know you Nailed it!
Have a Awesome weekend and God Bless You!
BON JOVI has gone Country,now :-(. Oh, well. Still good.
Can you do a reaction
to "THIS HOUSE IS NOT FOR SALE" by BON JOVI.
Thanks RJEFF!
They didnt go Country.they just had one Album which was lil Country influenced.but still Far away From Country music in my opinion.This House is not for sale is a good Song
Here is a guy with a real passion for what he does, when you do a job you love, it's impossible not to be happy in life.
thehomefront 👍👍👍
One of my favorite singer...thanks...
Benlen Tiglao You're welcome!
It is sad that Jon can't sing the chorus anymore, but, at the same time, I respect that he does not lip sync.
That is a great point, SirDeviless!
Found this after hearing you sing. Was going to say how great Richie was. He had the power voice. Love ya holding out the mic 😂They did an MTV awards acoustic of Wanted Dead or Alive and when Richie sang he blew JBJ out. It's an amazing vid if you haven't seen it. Your cover was amazing.
Thanks for the kind words, MARYBLEUZ!
Your awesome. I really love your videos man.
Thank you, mark!
You are a real joy to listen to.. very articulate and well spoken..You seem like a real nice person.. Great analysis of JBJ. Subscribing to see more your videos. Rock on buddy!
Checkout the version of Always from this show. Unbelievable
AgentX Thanks for the suggestion.
PLEASE do a reaction of any song from Sambora's first solo album
His singing is brilliant
Ignacio Sanchez Sanabria Thanks for the suggestion.
True.Stranger in this town is Killer.Richie showed his Talent on This Record
Ritchie Sambora is only famous because of Jon Bon Jovi... that is obvious.
Wow, hanging out with Bon Jovi and Scorpions... Never been the crazy type of fan, but that's the stuff of dreams!!! Especially in the 80's!!!
Interesting stuff and details, thanks for presenting this! 🙏😁 Best Regards! -- François from Montreal, Canada!
I love when you sing in the courses
Thanks, Warzy!
😱 i thought u wouldnt reply
Another great band a tremendous singer with lot of charisma and a underrated guitarist in my opinion
I agree, Urbano Ramos!
Urbano Ramos who is yhe underrated guitar player, richie I can guess because he since he critiqued it's my life he did his own sentence!
Urbano Ramos to be in a band isn't a life's sentence!
Great content congrats! Love Bon Jovi specially that era
Rock on!
Thank you Ken for sharing Bon Jovi...cover.
Evan xhylyn Thank you!
Bon Jovi is in my top 5 bands of all time, I absolutely LOVED his voice in the 80s. Today, due to his vocal issues and changing style, he is so nasily sounding. I still see him live when he is in our area, simply because his shows are still amazing, but damn would it be awesome to hear the songs the way they were meant to be sung. Wanted Dead or Alive is my anthem..... unfortunately, he cant sing it like he used to. BUT, that being said, when he does Always.... im not sure if he is using tracks, but he belts that song out.
reid1boys Definitely the sound of the 80s. Great band. Great songs.
I think he saves his vocal powers for Always. It’s brutally hard to sing, and the performance at Wembley shows he definitely still has it in him, even if it’s inconsistent.
I think he forces himself on Always WAY too hard, you can literally see the pain he’s in. But regardless it was impressive
Awesome video
Thanks for the visit!
Love you’re channel . So interesting. You’re awesome
Glad you enjoy it!
It's a personal dream of mine to be able to sing this song! Though I feel on my way to accomplishing that spending an hour a night on Ken's amazing course. Ken, thank you mate, you're a legend!
Probably Jon's best vocal era..the whole these days album, besides being a masterpiece, it's sung just so damn well. Please do a Richie Sambora reaction (maybe father time '91...simply unbelievably good)....and few more requests :D ...Richie Kotzen and Tom Keifer
I think I could get through that if I had Ritchie and the band to do the "Whoa-Ohh Livin on a prayer" part, or even just the "Whoa-ohh" party of that. Ritchie does an amazing job if it anyways with his amazing high voice!
I agree Daniel, Richie does a great job!
I had the chance to be on the last Central Park concert they did, biggest thrill of my life, I went to Jones Beach two weeks before the concert and there was a radio station there I played a game and won two tickets for the concert, I will never forget it... I love Bon Jovi and this song...
eve ruby Very cool!
It's amazing how that show is still getting reviews and compliments, one of the greatest rock show ever! Just amazing
I know, right?
@@kentamplin loved your channel, trying to learn all I can from you! Thanks a lot
God I miss the 90's bon jovi best band ever
They are awesome, Idan 101!
That's when Bon Jovi was good but listen to him sing today, and he just doesn't sound the same
Pierre B Bummer.
Pierre B I don’t listen to any of his music after early nineties.
@@kentamplin And Bon Jovi doesn't sound good without Richie Sambora.His voice guitar and songwriting added a lot to the band.
I’m a Bon Jovi fanatic and have picked up an ear for what their playback sounds like, pretty sure the high notes are sung by Richie and David Bryan (the keyboardist) here. Jon rarely sang the high notes, typically lip syncing the entire chorus in 1986-1989 singing occasionally. He stopped faking in 1990, and sang the high notes a few times in 1993. Love and totally agree with the points you made, especially about Richie. Killer vocals and guitar is amazing of course.
Mike Stagnone 👍👍👍
Hey, Ken sir. That is me, by the way aka Daniel Jobber. I am one of your biggest fans, as you can tell from all my comments I make on your videos, and I will continue to do my best to let others know how amazing your channel and your vocal coach stuff is. I just have one tiny favor to ask if I may.
Bon Jovi got his start with the Star Wars Christmas special.
Interesting, Holobrine!
I loved Bon Jovi when I was 12. I listened recently some tracks and I was blown away by their songwriting. I looked at wiki who wrote their songs... Shame on me... Lol
Jon and Richie have also written a ton of hits for other people as well.
Another great video Ken. This was when Jovi were in their prime imo. This was one of 3 sold out Wembley Concerts (3 x 80,000) They were on fire and this gig was killer (I’ve watched it enough times haha). It’s tough for Jon these days - twenty something years later and how many more gigs and miles done and of course no Richie anymore. I’ve also notice unlike some of my favourite guys (David Coverdale & Ozzy etc) Jovi don’t down tune much to allow for Jon’s voice love these days. He truly is a hard working dude. Respect
Как мне нравятся эти ваши исторические музыкальные обзоры!!!!
Is it great encouragement for us beginners. That even Jon Bon Jovi is only human, which not singing every time on 100%. And is it reason, that we all beginners, can compare with him.
Ken Therapy Keep up the hard work!
Spot on... I love this song, but the original soundtrack really rocks, this "live" version though, not so much. But kudos to Bon Jovi and the band, (esp. Ritchie).. they gave us some great songs over the years to sing (or SHOUT) to.. still some of my favorites even to this day.
I love your channel Ken. Always giving good criticism in a respectful way even though you know how to sing way better than a lot of people you talk about.
Thank you, Angel!
The best band in the world and one of eternal Rock songs ever!!!
jose eduardo Yes indeed!
I agree with your critique he didn't put everything into this song.. Jon and I graduated from the same HS.. He was 3 years behind me..
Thanks for sharing, Dawn!
Bonjovi is smart enough to handle...he is one of the greatest singers of all time👍
Thanks, Khraw!
I love this tour, I went to two shows and the energy was high and pure fan service in the best way possible. One of them I went with a Bon Jovi critic, and at the “OHOOO” I told him, expect everyone to throw their hands in the air... and on cue 49000 people throw their hands and 1 reluctantly, laughing joined in... and a fan was born. Jon may not have the best vocals, less of all lately, but a live set will always “rock them all”! :)
So many bands you met, that is amazing. I've only met Kotipelto from Stratovarius and Herman Li from DragonForce, it was an amazing experience and also I know the music style is totally different but I still enjoy all those bands you mentioned at the beginning of the video and of course Bon Jovi. Hello from Guatemala City! 🇬🇹🤘🏻
The band or backning vocals singing the line "living on a prayer" everytime at the end tho, other than that it was pretty solid but abit weak as you said. Btw would love you to do one of Halfords best live performance wich is pretty well known by metal fans, its the "judas priest - the sentinel (live)" on UA-cam with 3.5mil views. Its 86 from Dallas, Halfords golden era IMO. Thanks Ken.
You could always review Richie doing I’ll be There For You at MSG in 09
YOU'RE AWESOME !!!
Ahh....weren’t the 80’s fun :). I miss those days
#kiske #kiskethevoice
ScaleWorx Kustoms They sure were!
I totally agree. Richie's voice made that band what it was...
Awesome fun video.
I'm pleased you think so, Never_2_Old_Fitness!
I enjoyed that, I can't believe this was 24 years ago 🤦 I was at that very concert. Amazing night 🤘🏻
So glad you enjoyed it, Paul!
Iron Maiden - Hallowed be thy name Live 1982
Yea !!!! Good one
I think this Hammersmith one was the first time they play songs from Number of the beast, so considering this was probably the first time he really sang this, Dickinson kicked ass in this particular version,,,,best version of Hallowed be thy name in my opinion
I love this song ❤
I'll second this. Ken absolutely should do a cover and while he is at it also a reaction video.
You know what Ken?
You would leave them all in the dust

I have trained with your UA-cam

Ken you are Absolutely wonderful vocal Teacher..best vocal Teacher
Wow, thank you!
Ken, you are so funny! I'm having so much fun watching these. I have a Bon Jovi story. When I was in my mid-20s way back in the last century I was dating a Delta flight attendant who was good friends with Jon and his manager/best friend, Billy. She was a total groupie and it drove me wacko. All day it was "Jon" this and "Jon" that and "Billy" this and "Billy" that. I finally decided I couldn't compete with a rock star and said adios amiga. :)
Great story, Ray! Thanks for sharing! That would drive me nuts too.
4:50 - 5:21 ~ Haha, you're such a dork, but I enjoy your videos.
Seems you give a lot more commentary on the bands, their histories, and the whole ensemble production than strictly commenting on the vocals, as other vocal coaches tend to do, and I don't know if that's more or less useful -- I think it's just different content, and I find it entertaining.
Either way, I am glad you are entertained, Concerned Citizen!
