Jon thought the song sucked and richie had come up with the chord progression on the piano. |

There's loads of people that never hear the similarities to other songs until you start singing the direct melody over it. Fans said people were crazy for comparing Bells Of Freedom to This Ain't A Love Song, because THEY'RE SO DIFFERENT! OMG!" Put all the closes of It's My Life on 1 CD and many will think they heard 15 different songs. However, if because you don't hear it therefore won't accept that they are to someone else, or just refuse to accept how Bon Jovi are far from as creative as they'd like to pretend they are you're missing out a whole lot in music in general. Now I know it helps if you play guitar, or any other instrument for that matter, because you at some times develop a musical ear for this, but saying it's all a co-incidence is saying the same for everything the Chinese copy from the western world. http://repairpaintcar.com/wp-content...cSRX_thumb.jpg The left one is Bon Jovi, the right one is Tom Petty. "There's only so much you can do with 4 wheels", right? Salaam Aleikum, Sebastiaan |
I don't know if you are just stupid or you are actually trolling around. Useless topic.

Led Zeppelin are well-known for stealing many of the songs they call their own. They were also sued for doing this many times so at least Bon Jovi is being less blatant than them with stealing.
Because I'm lazy I just copied this list from some website. "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" - A folk song by Anne Bredon, this was originally credited as "traditional, arranged by Jimmy Page," then "words and music by Jimmy Page," and then, following legal action, "Bredon/Page/Plant." "Black Mountain Side" - uncredited version of a traditional folk tune previously recorded by Bert Jansch. "Bring It On Home" - the first section is an uncredited cover of the Willie Dixon tune (as performed by the imposter Sonny Boy Williamson). "Communication Breakdown" - apparently derived from Eddie Cochran's "Nervous Breakdown." "Custard Pie" - uncredited cover of Bukka White's "Shake 'Em On Down," with lyrics from Sleepy John Estes's "Drop Down Daddy." "Dazed And Confused" - uncredited cover of the Jake Holmes song (see The Above Ground Sound Of Jake Holmes). "Hats Off To (Roy) Harper" - uncredited version of Bukka White's "Shake 'Em On Down." "How Many More Times" - Part one is an uncredited cover of the Howlin' Wolf song (available on numerous compilations). Part two is an uncredited cover of Albert King's "The Hunter." "In My Time Of Dying" - uncredited cover of the traditional song (as heard on Bob Dylan's debut). "The Lemon Song" - uncredited cover of Howlin' Wolf's "Killing Floor" - Wolf's publisher sued Zeppelin in the early 70s and settled out of court. "Moby Dick" - written and first recorded by Sleepy John Estes under the title "The Girl I Love," and later covered by Bobby Parker. "Nobody's Fault But Mine" - uncredited cover of the Blind Willie Johnson blues. "Since I've Been Lovin' You" - lyrics are the same as Moby Grape's "Never," though the music isn't similar. "Stairway To Heaven" - the main guitar line is apparently from "Taurus" by Spirit. "White Summer" - uncredited cover of Davey Graham's "She Moved Through The Fair." "Whole Lotta Love" - lyrics are from the Willie Dixon blues "You Need Love." source: http://www.warr.org/zep.html Yeah. That should be close to about 20 songs and that's only the blatant ones. |

That said, what makes you think so? It's not as if I'm looking online for similarities all the time, all of the examples I listed stem from a first listen to any of the songs. I have a feeling you're not even hearing half of them and are therefore dismissing anything that's being said that indicates that not all Bon Jovi songs are so Bon Jovi after all. I started with 12, then added 8 more examples just from the people that post here. I don't understand why, if you're a Bon Jovi fan, or just a music fan in general, you wouldn't be more interested in what else is out there that have helped building up Bon Jovi's legacy. Is it reluctancy? Is it ignorance? I don't get it. Salaam Aleikum, Sebastiaan |
I just don't care. If I like the music, that's all that matters to me.
