Default When you sing along to Bon Jovi - which version do you sing?
Got the bus into Liverpool City Centre today and slapped New Jersey onto the iPhone. Album is full of hits that have been played Live numerous times. When singing in my head I found myself singing the live versions of the album songs! Anyone else do this? If so what songs? Me, I sing the live versions of Wanted Dead Or Alive - where the "Dead or Alive" line is sang at a lower tone. Same with Sleep When I'm Dead.

Aloha !

Yeah, I sing along to the live versions, that way I can always explain myself when I'm a bit out of key. "This is the part where Jon goes out of key as well, I'm just singing the live version!" You should hear my renditions of Prayer. They're very close to how Jon sings the song.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

I generally only listen to live versions. Studio only when I'm in the car and decide to be old fashioned and stick a CD on.

I sing in the TLFR live style. I even have a big old fashioned invisible mic.
