Default Vote for Bon Jovi for the Most Iconic VMA performance ever

I'm sure we've all seen the Prayer/Wanted medley from the VMAs in 1989, well it's not in with a chance to be crowned the most iconic VMA performance ever. Vote here: http://newsroom.mtv.com/2011/08/12/m...c-vma-moments/ (currently third)

For those who haven't seen the performance, need a reminder or simply want to watch the timeless majesty of it once again:

What a joke. MJ's "performance", like most everything else he did post 1992 was lip synched. Britney's was too. Bon Jovi's performance was raw, authentic, surprising, and revolutionary.

..don't see them having a chance against MJ, but I voted. The performance is the opposite of the MTV schtick, so I'd gladly vote. You can argue that some of the others deserve the icon title too. But I don't see what a live boa has to do with music, and Gaga is more the product of MTV than an icon of it, at this point.
