I love that David is singing in the song more than what we usually hear. It's easy to tell when it's Richie's voice, but David doesn't give us much to listen to when it comes to his voice. He has a great voice.
On These Days tour, David and Richie split the back up vocal. While in the original audio it's only Richie's voice. This is why I love Bon Jovi as a band. They always find a way to make a member play a part somehow. Alec also got some back up vocal work on live performance in the 80s. Tico also did sing on stage early 2000s.
@@faiz7180 I saw one video here where Tico sang a song that was for his son. He definitely doesn't have a singing voice (neither do I, and I can't play drums either), but he put himself out there and it was beautiful in it's own way. The thing that I hated most about Richie leaving was because of how well his harmony was such a compliment to Jon's melody. People talk about how Richie's voice was better than Jon's, but I sort of disagree because Richie puts a new twist on songs that I don't care for, but his harmony is so amazing. I truly miss hearing new music from them, but Jon can't sing at all anymore, something that was painfully obvious this year with the videos people were posting from concerts. It hurts to hear him try to sing when he just can't do it anymore. I'm so grateful to have grown up when I did. The 70's were such a great decade when it came to just about anything, but especially music. New singers, new types of music, rock and roll was exploding as was pop, soul, rhythm and blues, and country crossover. Then in the 80's it got amped up with hard rock or hair metal, two of the terms used to describe bands or singers. I have such a huge library of music, all genres, and music has gotten me through some tough times in my life. I love David's voice as well as his way with keyboards. So much talent by everyone in the band. I sure hope the song "Rock and Roll Heaven" is true. Makes me look forward to going to heaven.
@@survivrs I agree with you that Tico doesn't have a singing voice and definitely beautiful. You are right about Richie's voice is not better than Jon's and vice versa. Both of them are unique in their own way. Jon is more fitting for a rock band frontmen for sure. I hate it when people disregard Jon's effort just for the sake of praising Richie's. They are both great musicians that compliment each other very well. Growing up throughout the 70s, 80s and 90s must be really great. I'm a gen z but those decades are definitely my favourite.
One of Bon Jovi best song! Tx for sharing. How come it wasnt a hit as the others BJ songs? I grew up with Bon Jovi's songs. I always can relate to their songs since high school, college till i'm married with kids.
Dia 12/07/2024 eu aqui ainda apaixonado por voce! Mesmo sabendo que não posso volta atrás! Siga sua vida em diante! Mas te amo! Voce sabe quem e! Escutavamos essa musica juntos!😢
ohh I just discovered that the one who always said "yeah yeah yeah yeah" was David not Richie o.O lol! BTW nice song, so relaxing in my nights since 95' as well as Bed of Roses.
I had to back it up, did it on an extended version also because I knew it wasn't Richie's voice, but on each version, it's definitely David singing the "Yeah yeah yeah" part.
It's great that there are these old captures: it proves me that they really WERE good and it wasn't just my juvenile ignorance that made me think so. What I didn't like about that era was that they thought they had to look grungy... and - if you're sensitive to those things - you can tell that Jon's vocal technique isn't healthy, and nowadays he pays the price.
Thanks for this!! Man, I remember I tried to record this particular episode of Hey Hey when it was on tv back then, but the tape got chewed up and didn't record -- now I can see the whole set again and again in full..thanks again!! :)
Oh God. I like Jon´s wild style more than his style today! But anyway. Anytime he is an awesome musician and a smart guy. I give a fuck of what other people say! Go to hell!The important thing is: He touch my heart and my soul with his song and music! I love him!
