2020: The New Album

The amount of studio video footage Obie has is probably massive too from all the past albums.

Well we actually just got some footage today from the recording sessions in the CBS Sunday Morning interview:

Even Billy Falcon did some backing vocals as shown in there!

Since people already were making up stories here about David's absence lately:

David on Instagram:

To all BonJovi fans !! Enjoy our new album ! If you are wondering where I was for TV promo ....I couldn’t do all the promotion for 2020 because I was filming my musical DIANA for Netflix. I can’t wait to get back on stage with my band brothers and Rock the world again !! ����������

Oh.. and btw: Bon Jovi was sharing his post in their story congrating him on his success with his musical, and telling that he was missed!
Hopefully all these senseless speculations and making up rumours are coming to an end now...

Thanks.

It's good to have Billy in the backing vocals, I love the guy, a great talent. Phil's face is saying "this sucks."

I’d love 30 minutes of this. Jon presenting the songs to the band, clips of them playing etc

This. I could spend all day watching this kind of footage. Imagining seeing how "New Years Day" turned into the band song, as Jon said it was David ideia in the studio. Imagining see Richie thinking in use the 2 necks guitar on HAND...man, I would love to see that kind of things. And know that they have it and simply don't give it to us (or even sell!!) kills me all time.

I'm not sure how much relevance this holds yet the deluxe version of 2020 has suddenly jumped to number 10 on the itunes album charts here in the U.S.

It's the magic a (small) promotion can do (even if it's on Times Square for Spotify). Also Jon appeared on TV yesterday so that helps too.

And in fact it was No. 9 yesterday.

On point.
I dig that people are purchasing the much better deluxe version. Meaning Luv Can and Shine will be included in their experience.

Yeah, and that's something I really liked about "2020".

Jon wanted to make a topical record and for this reason he replaced Shine and Luv Can with AR and DWYC leaving them as bonus tracks. Obviously they'd make the album more commercial and lighter, however he choosed meaning over charts. Damn I'm glad we got to listen to these songs, but I do admire and respect "Jon's vision" for this record.
