Hey everyone,
Just today I was thinking to myself, exactly why Bon Jovi are so popular and possibly the greatest band of all time???

and this is what I came up with.....

Right throughout Bon Jovi's career there has always been a certain resistance from the majority of the music listeners to rock music. However Bon Jovi have always managed to create Rock music that was worth listening to, and has sold well (This includes the 80's too).

When they first hit the scene in the 80's Rock was almost non-existant in the charts, but Bon Jovi were bold enough to say "this is our music, even if it isn't the trend", and obviously it has paid off with them being classed as rock legends.

Even today Bon Jovi is still fighting towards having rock more accepted, as its the trend at the moment to have artists like Britney spears, Christina aguilera etc, just show as much as possible (ie little amount of clothes), to get huge sales, and beat real talent like Bon Jovi.

However they have fought this battle all throught their careers, and have been (in my opinion) the best rock band ever!

Please tell me what you think
