Around the release of Crossroad a friend played it through while I was at his house. I didn't become a fan until the IML single though.

Seeing the Always video in MTV got me hooked and got me to get the Crossroads album and it went on from there.

It was in 1994. My sister had the cassette of Slippery When Wet and made me listen to it. The first song I heard was Livin On A Prayer and I immediately fell in love with it! Since Cross Road had just came out, it was the first Bon Jovi album I bought, but it didn't take long before I got their other albums!

The first time i heard Bon Jovi was when It's My Life was released, I was on holiday in Spain and there was a bar on the beach that played music all day, and It's My Life would come on about 4 times a day, i loved the song so much and rushed out and bought it when I got home, then bought Crush. To this day it's my all time favourite song and Crush is my favourite Bon Jovi album (just becuase it ws my first)

Anyway, I didn't know a single word of English at the time but I knew Always by heart

Couldīve been anything between 1988 and 2005. Hard to say.

Probably in the mid 80's in school when we were allowed to bring our own cassettes to our music class. Some kid in my class brought in YGLABN. I gave it a 10.

-well it was around 1990 and i was only 5, my parents had this super tracks 2 cassette or whatever it was, and i used to love the first two songs, one i still know by heart and dont know who sings it and the second once was you give love a bad name, i would sing the whole tune back then and that was the only english i knew.

- when always came out, id hear it on the radio almost every morning when id go to school, not realizing it was bon jovi

-i really became a fan when i was at a friends house and he was like " man listen to saturday night" so i was like pff it cant better than the one i already know....and then someday ill be saturday night came on and thats all it took, i got cross road, realized bj sang yglabd and always and ive been a fan ever since
