However SWW is the most iconic album of Bon Jovi and is very prominent in the eighties. Could launch a 30th anniversary edition now, because it is the right time.


But they have been greedy with the reeditions the past decade.

2005 - SWW Dual Disc 5.1 (album in 5.1) no unrrelased song, no bonus tracks.
2010 - Special Editions Tour (remastered) only 4 live tracks.

2016 - 30TH Annyversary (would be... 2cd+book) cd1 Album+bonus tracks unrrelased songs. cd2 live show from 1986. book of pics from tour.


I do not know if they have a videotaped concert worth, simply with these 2cds, we would be very happy.

i've been listening to this song non stop today, it's so freaking catchy.

I had that phase 4 weeks ago :D

Oh gee maybe Bon Jovi just has too many dummies for fans like me. I didn't even realize what those deluxe anniversary editions consisted of.

This cover would be a great TLFR version if Jon had recorded this one.

Is that autotune / pitch correction in the chorus?

Pretty cool either way, though!

Not sure, I think it's rather some (unnecessary) effect. This guy also made a cover of Brokenpromiseland and that's pretty much the tone and range of his voice, so I think it's natural.

I always imagine how it would be hearing a Bon Jovi-take on that song during the NJ era. Could be pretty fantastic, it's a great, great song that has BJ written all over it. Shame there's no band demo of it.

The Witness version sounds a lot more like BJ than the Dalton one for sure. And yeah, with this arrangement, it sounds just like the lost BJ song it is. The prechorus especially is a lot more effective this way.

There has to be a demo version of this song sung by Jon in the vaults...

And also a demo version of Jon doing Notorious by Loverboy... It's been stated that Loverboy rearranged the so much that it's much different than Bon Jovi's initial version...

I could so do without this: http://www.people.com/article/jon-bo...-entertainment

I don't know, I found it funny. Ok, same old story he's been telling for years, but other than that...

At least he doesn't endorse that crazy old madman that is Trump.

I've been listening to Meatloaf recently, and heard Elvis in Vegas last night, and wondered if there was a band demo or version of this, or if Jon wrote it especially for Meatloaf?

It dates back to circa 1994/5 so I would almost guarantee there is a demo version from the These Days sessions which would be amazing to hear. Sadly it's never leaked or been released.

One interesting fact that I picked up on during the NY Fan Club show was Jon stating that he doesn't drink anymore!

I don't think he was joking either... I wonder if it's because of his voice? Or maybe it was becoming a bit too much?

I'm surprised no one else commented or picked up on that...

Interesting!! I didnt know that.
In fact there are so few info about what he said in the last RT thing, if you have more pls share with us!

Did he say that during the show? Maybe he is really trying to do anything to preserve the rest of voice.

He was talking about the Direct TV videos... Go to that thread and listen to the link I attached...

I prefer Nickelback's socially conscious/optimistic rock songs to Bon Jovi's:

Maybe Jon not drinking anymore has something to do with not wanting to be the next rock star found dead from mixing pain pills and alcohol. My guess--and it is just a guess--is that Jon has pain pills for chronic pain from his multiple injuries that he probably doesn't take every day but he knows better than to mix alcohol with when he does take them. And if he didn't know better before than this year of celebrities dropping like flies may have taught his superstitious yet intelligent little self to think twice. After all, they traced Prince's death back to his pain medication for his hip problem. Wake up call, perhaps? Just a theory.

Good thing that Jon is almost never drunk in public, this is a sing of not-drinking too much (on the other hand Richie....). I think the last time I saw him drunk/drugged was in Rock in Rio 2008. Jon seems very reasonable, he knows that alcohol and too much medication is bad for him...

On the other hand he delivered one of my favourite shows while he was heavily drunk - Paris 1997 :)

Jon may need to "just" take the edge off before he can be as good as he really is. That was a hell of a show :)

Looks like those Direct TV ads are doing the business in the states as they were even mentioned on WWE Raw during a promo, as it's a running joke that Chris Jericho looks like Bon Jovi:

I'm sure that we already have answered this question but I can't find it anymore...

Do you remember which song is the One wild night intro? I'm sure that there was a youtube video with a full 3 minute song....

Are you referring to the elevator music?

Yep, exactly!

Bumping this old thread as there's no use to start a new thread.

I'm simply wondering if anyone remember the excellent site that used to be where you could find all the info you could possibly want about all Bon Jovi releases - regarding different pressings, CD/LPS, promo CDs, singles and so on.

Remember it was categorized in album and built up like a "bookshelf-kind of". Pretty bad description but I'm sure some of you knows what I mean. It has been praised here quite a few times, but now that I want to find it I just can't seem to. Maybe it's been shut down, real shame if it's so.

So, anyone knows what site I mean? I can't seem to remember its name...

It used to be this site:
http://www.bjaidb.com/index.php

But it's been offline for almost two years now.

I spent hours and hours looking at this site when it was online

I've been listening to a lot of bootlegs on the last days, different years and god, they were good, I saw Wembley 95 #1 last night and the energy, the happiness they had that night...

You may be able to find some of it about still http://web.archive.org/web/200806151....com/index.php

Then give Wembley night 2 a shot. To me it was the outstanding show of those three, especially since Jon's voice held up all night long.

Thank you so much!!!!

I'm gonna listen today! thanks

freaking awesome, thanks dude

this is amazing...man wish Jon would do stg to believe in

Me too! It was awesome!

Watched Yokohama 1996 last night after a few drinks. Nearly cried. Not their best performance so I'm told, but holy hell if it's not it proves what a band they were. 'Hey God' can melt your face off, 'I'll Be There For You' is perfection, 'Blood On Blood' is littered with heart and soul, 'Something To Believe In' is pure raw emotion, and that acoustic 'Wanted Dead Or Alive'...beautiful.

Are the beginning parts of We Don't Run live a playback??? Ooooooo, Ooooooo, Oooooo
