Please come home for christmas
 
i asked about it in another thread but got no answer. I was wondering, is this a band record or a jbj solo song?

Supersonic 12-01-2007 11:46 AM

Aloha !

A band record.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

Is this a cover? I think I Wish Everyday Could Be Like Christmas is Bon Jovi song and Please Come Home For Christmas isn't. Am I wrong?

No you're right, at least for Please Come Home For Christmas, not too sure about I wish Everyday Could be like Christmas

Supersonic 12-01-2007 02:35 PM

Please Come Home For Christmas is a cover from Eagles. I Wish Everyday Could Be Like Christmas is written by Jon.

Salaam Aleikum,

No, it's a band song. It was released as a single under the bands' name back in 1995. I know some CD's a singles refer to Jon Bon Jovi when it comes to this song, but it is a band song and probable recorded during the Cross Road / These Days sessions. However, not every band member is present on the recording too, but I can't remember who is and who isn't.

Lots of people have done this song. Did the Eagles really write it?

Nope. It was a cover then as well. Don't know the original artist, but it wasn't the Eagles.

No, the Eagles cover is the most popular but the song was written by blues artist, Charles Brown.

Thought so, I knew it ws an OLD song. Older than the Eagles anyway.

Captain Walrus 12-13-2007 09:28 PM

Just like to add, I heard the full version of this for the first time since last Christmas today, and if that's not Richie playing the outro solo, I'll eat my own face

(Don't)Lie_to_me 12-13-2007 11:25 PM

Yeah, it sounds like RS's phrasing

I think it was recorded during the Keep the Faith era. Jon and the boys performed I Wish Everyday Could Be Like Christmas on An Evening With.

According to the liner notes, it's not Richie. Guitar is credited to Don Felder and Tim Pierce.

Well I put the CD single into my PC last week and it connected and got the info for the songs, and it listed it all as being Bon Jovi playing and doing the vocals and things.

Not....neccisarily. It appears they used the set during rehearsals to film the promo video. I don't think they actually did the song during it. At least as far as I know.

TheseDays2005 12-26-2007 03:11 AM

wich of the two songs is on the KTF single then?

And while were talking non-band performances on a BJ cd, isnt' there another song somewhere wich did not include bandmembers (not real life), maybe Letting you go?

Letting you go had Jon playing keyboards and a drum machine in place of Tico, so maybe it's the one you're thinking of. There have been plenty of b-sides with Bobby on it.
