I'd take the This Left Feels Right Always, I'll Be There For You, It's My Life or even Wanted Dead Or Alive over that crappy Hey God.

That's it, I'm selling my tickets. I won't pay to see a singer who can't sing. I swear to God that I can sing Hey God better than him when I'm showering.

I pretty much feel the same way now. The thought of a Samboraless Bon Jovi is a pretty hard thing to stomach, but add to that a lead singer who can't sing, what's the point anymore.

Relax. People jump off the cliff every time they hear a bad vocal performance (via YouTube), and then things settle down when they hear something better (they're back!). The performances don't yo-yo as much as people's emotions on this board. Take a chill pill.

Ah in fairness, Jon has sounded continually awful on this tour. It's not like a random bad vocal here and there and other than that he generally sounds good. At the start of the tour he sounded poor, which was to be expected based on previous tours, but where as previously his voice went from strength to strength, unfortunately on this tour his voice has just gotten weaker and weaker, to the point now where I can't listen to him.

Hey God.
The worst version ever.

Oh my god. That's embarrassing.

It wasn't a single bad vocal performance. He's been awful for the whole tour. Instead of getting stronger, his voice is getting weaker and weaker as the tour goes on. And I'm not judging only by looking at videos on youtube, but a lot of people going to the shows are reporting that he sounds awful.

There are times when he sounds bad and you don't really notice when you are at the concert, but this time a lot of people are noticing. This gives you an ideia of how bad his voice has turned into.

I don't have any problems watching performances from the HAND and Bouce Tour, when his voice was shot to pieces, but I simply cannot watch any videos from this tour until the end. It's embarassing and makes me sad. I remember back at the European Tour in 2011 when I was thinking: "Jon must be happy because now he can include songs like Something to Believe In, I Believe and Something for the Pain in the set." Now, when I see him struggling to death trying to sing Always and Hey God, I imagine what must be going through his mind. it's like he really hopes that his voice will come back to him but it doesn't. It must be very hard for him to face that.

I agree on the recent performances. But I was at the show in Nashville, and he was good. The performance of Always was one of the best of the tour, every bit as good as 2011. One of the rare times that he has been better in the U.S. than Europe. I just think it's wrong to make sweeping conclusions that it will never be back. There will be good times and bad.

Bon Jovi - Always - Nashville TN - March 6/13 -...

You're right, he sounds better here, but that wasn't his normal level at the american leg of the Because He Can't tour.

Anyway, he's got a lot worse after that. And there haven't been many good times.
