exactly. jon is perfect for screams! can you imagine richie singing homebound train? i wouldn't like that!

Okay we all know that Jon can't hit the high notes on Prayer that's why he has Riche, David and yes Hugh sing them to back him up and if you also notice he points to the crowd each time. I've seen them live and everytime Riche will overpower Jon just cause he has a more powerfull voice. As for Jon singing any of Richies stuf forget it...but Richie can sing any Bon Jovi stuff just listen to the botlegs out there on him live but don't download them our you might get sued....I just can't see Jon singing Ballad of Youth... I can't just cause of how high Richies voice is..NUFF' SAID.

First off, let me say this is all my opinion.

All singers can't hit the high notes after singing for 20 years. Paul McCartney certainly can't sing Yesterday like he did when he started. No one's old - just older.

I can't imagine Jon singing River of Love - he doesn't have the throatiness necessary in that song. I can't imagine Richie singing Bed of Roses. All the songs are obviously written with the singer in mind.

That said, I would love to hear Richie do a blues album - like Clapton did with From The Cradle.

I like both voices - and both Jon and Richie singing IBTFY.
