Default I'll Be There For You vocals

DISCLAIMER: I know that this has been asked before, multiple times probably. But I thought now would be a good time to ask again.

So after 3 tours of Richie being the one who mainly sang I'll Be There For You, Jon took the mic on all performances this tour (except for ), and it wasn't the sub-par This Left Feels Right version. It got many rave reviews, probably because it was fresh to the ears (and probably because Richie took over Homebound Train, at least for a little while). But who do you prefer singing it: Jon, or Richie?

I prefer Jon. Richie's version was, and is, fantastic, with the soulful vocals and the long outro solo. But I still would prefer Jon here, as I would on any Bon Jovi song. That's the way I got to know the song, and that's the version that is in my top 5 Bon Jovi songs.
