@@harryking9674Yes 70's to. Boston, Elton, The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac man I was born in 1970 and by the time I could walk and talk I was jumping off our couch onto the pillows on the floor doing front flips to all my Mother's 45's dam wish we could go back and do again then the 80's came a lot of good bands like 'The Car's, Madonna The Cure that's when the Girls started happening ! 👍
He toured with the Scorpions that summer (‘84) as their warmup band. I got to see him when he played in Charlevoix, Michigan. Absolutely ELECTRIC. He almost stole the show. We had close seats too! Back then you could get concert tickets for $12-15. Good times!!!
THIS IS 1984, my sister and I turned 17 y.o., and we were the C/O 1984 as we Graduated High School. IT was the most AWESOME 😎 TIME FOR MUSIC, & BON JOVI WAS taking off in their BEGINNING. They surpassed them ALL ALMOST. AS STYX sang, These We're The Best of Time's BABY!!!❤
The 80s were the best and American bandstand was a great show and never missed it. What a treasure and thank you TH-cam and technology. This is with Bon Jovi back in the day! Love you, Dick Clark, and rest in peace and love you, Bon Jovi and the gang still rockin! ❤
I was a senior in 1984 and I can't count how many times I've seen them live! Love that Jon serves his community after all his success! I dated a guy who was a few years older, played guitar in a band and he had Bon Jovi hair, lol! Man those were the days!
Mark Goodman was talking about how funny this is on Sirius today so I had to look it up. Great album. I was in Jr High when this album came out. Saw them twice in 89 with Skid Row.
You were listening to the same show I was I was doing my UPS route when I heard the same thing that’s why I came here to check it out. Nothing really funny that I saw though.
@@John-w2w2q true, I really liked them and still do. I thought this was awesome, other than it being not live, lip syncing at its best, and not a cord plugged in for the guitars or mic, but hey, that was the awesome 80's.
“She Don’t Know me” was actually my first fav song by BJ. Found out later it’s one of if not the only song Jon and the band didn’t write?? I can’t remember if they played it when they opened up for the Scorpions but I know I haven’t heard it played live after that? I’m going out on a limb and saying these two songs on AB were 100% lip synced. I’m so glad they left that behind as that’s when Jon’s voice was incredible! I hope this cutting edge surgery he had on his chords helped him. I know he was pretty upset but Father Time gets even the best singers.”
Until today no party or road trip without BJ ✊🔥✊. My kids and grandchilds grew up with them and if we are in the car it is a MUST to listen to their great music... Bon Jovi was and is a beautiful man with a big heart same as Dorothea 💝💝💝.
Got to admit.. They were pretty tight. Remember when this came on the stage. Fresh, new, big hair, great pants !! 😅 Time goes by fast.. Thank you Maynard James..
1984 I was 15 going on 16 what an awesome time looking at this ugly world that we live in now can I go back to 1980 and it's relive it all over and stay there
Getting signed to a major label, having hit radio songs, going on world tours, videos being shown on MTV & performing on Dick Clark’s “American Bandstand”…Wow!!!
After hearing their hit song Runaway on the radio I went out and bought the cassette tape which I still have to this day. Also while at work back in 83 I was the fourth caller to my local radio station and won two tickets to see them perform live at a night club on US 1 in NJ just as they were starting their career. Forgot the name of the club but it was a great time. Miss the 80's!
Ha this made me smile...sum great memories!! Saw them in concert several times, and they rocked tha house! Wish I could go back...the clothes, the big hair, the bad azz fast cars and the music!🤘
I love how Jon said that his band is opening up for The Scorpions. Who knew that just a few years later Bon Jovi would be the headliner band? I also like how Jon introduced David by his real name, David Rashbaum.
Great footage. I was 12 yrs old at this time and fully in to MTV. I bought this album that same year, but somehow missed this AB appearance. Great to watch!
But he was the one who coined Steve Perry as ‘the Voice’. Jon was humble enough about his talent to be able and willing to praise others. Admirable of him.
This was the first record I ever bought! Love Bon Jovi.❤ I was only 14 when this came out! Wow! Time flies, and I still listen to 80's music all the time.
I only watched AB when they had JBJ and my musicians. Although I can’t knock the show so many people loved it. They are so adorable, this was the year I was hooked. Jon had me, back then they had 3-4 guys sporting the same perms and long hair earrings and more makeup than I wore. It took me a few days to nail down its Jon not the others. Thanks for the journey Jon!
Seems like forever ago. Yet it brings me back like it was yesterday. ~ I will forever love you Bon Jovi. My very early teenage years when I was just becoming women. Jon Bon Jovi was my first true love, although he never quite knew it. lol But that young girl turned into a women one day and she got to meet him and the band. Yes, that was me and it was the highlight of my entire life. Never will forget these amazing memories and all the concerts I want to. ~ Forever in my heart. 🩷
Nothing but raw talent and wanted it I was getting ready in two years to start my first band I copied everything he did the hairstyle clothes the sound he signed me a microphone I was the frontman and Ritchie signed me a strat guitar still a huge fan but I didn't make it but it awesome fun wish I could have made it
I wanna wake up and be back in the 80s when all music and life in general was good.
ME TOO😊!
The world was the same, we were just young and free.
Me toooo!!!!!
Sign me up!!!!!
🙏🏼
The 80's where the best ever!
Thank you it's the truth.
Man the 80s were the best times
60's were a blast.
Yes they were. 👍😎👍
@@tonys1210 К СОЖАЛЕНИЮ, ЧТО БЫЛИ
Not really.
I concur says this 80s girl 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Bring back the 80s!!
I remember when She don't know me came out. The 80's felt like 10 years ago. Great times!
Yep..wasn't that around the same time as "sing me away"? And "Hollywood" by shooting Star?
sooo many great Hair bands in 80s - Cinderella, Europe , Ratt, Quiet Riot, Journey, the list is endless
Dont put Journey in the same sentence with these characters. Steve Perry, totally different level of talent.
Totally.
The 80s were the best of everything,music,partys,girls, everybody got along and could chill best times ever !!!!
Dude, that's a lie. I've been told of many, many fights in schools and elsewhere, of discrimination, sexual harassment and more.
Cartoons and then Bandstand- Saturday morning in early 80s
Take me back!!
The BEST times!!
Yes sir . Every Saturday morning. After football. Jr. Pro football lol
Yep!!
This takes me back. In 84, I was 12 years old and fell in love with Bon Jovi, and you know what, I still do.
I was 17
I didn't think he was that good looking until I saw him in person in 2004. He is way more beautiful in person.
I was in High School and if you were wanting to get with a super cutie....go to a bon jovi concert...damn
My 20s were in the 80s . I love that music then and still love it today ❤️ 😍 💕 ❤❤❤❤❤
Me Too
Yep, me too. 🤟
Just 2 years later they penned “Wanted Dead Or Alive” greatest rock ballad on the planet!🤘
I wouldn't consider Wanted Dead or Alive a ballad.
They changed a lot in those 2 years....Jon got much less gawky and clumsy on stage. They definitely got cooler....Style and substance improved a lot.
@@7Earthsky 100%🤘
Nope. Greatest rock ballad is Living in sin
@@mikemeaney4027except? It is😊
This is funny....they are timeless and they had no idea back then the journey ahead and the millions of records they would sell..Love them❤🥰
Oh boy they had no clue...Life was about to take a HUGE turn for them.
I was 13 living outside of Boston, fast forward to 1987 and I was living in Hawaii and went to the very last show of the Slippery When Wet tour.,
Too bad this wasn’t a live performance. It’s a lip sync of the studio recording. Terrible. 👍🏻✌🏻
I knew theyd be a hit first time i heard them Still love them
I have a Boston too. Best damn dog ever!!
I remember listening to Bon Jovi cruising in my 1985 IROC-Z, class of 85!
Class of 88' here!
Same❤@@paulaburris1427
Class of '85 here, too!!
🤘
Class of 85 ROCKED
@@tonyfontana8222 damn somebody had a rich daddy lol
They’re all so young & cute on this show! So very long ago…I miss the 80s!
Theses guys might make it one day
maybe you will ...
The 80s were the best time in history to be growing up.
Not really the 60s with the British invasion and the 70s were the best years from music the greatest bands
@@harryking9674Yes 70's to.

Totally agree graduated from h.s in 1985
Not really 90s were much better bill Clinton was ten times better than jelly bean boy lol
The 80s had the best concerts for sure!
American Bandstand brought the world the greatest genre of music and talent
Yet never let them play live….
R.I.P Alec John Such
Alec John Such, passed away!? When?
@@jonjor-xk7iw 6/5/22
What happened?
I remember seeing this when it aired. I was 13 and thought he was the most Beautiful man I'd ever seen 😊
No te equivocaste es el más guapo y hermoso de todos!!! ❤
I agree! I was also 13! And still a fan!
Richie was cuter
Ditto!
He still is!! He has aged very well! And kept the same wife too!!
They did a great job of lip synchronization to their studio recording! 👏
Definitely lip syncing
He toured with the Scorpions that summer (‘84) as their warmup band. I got to see him when he played in Charlevoix, Michigan. Absolutely ELECTRIC. He almost stole the show. We had close seats too! Back then you could get concert tickets for $12-15. Good times!!!
A realistic world back in the 80s....it has fallen off a cliff now
Yup, wichita ks 2 months before I left for navy boot camp
I saw the same tour Cincinnati Gardens eating blue tips. Wow what a night.
I had just turned 13 when this aired. It's one of my "go to" songs on my ride home from work, to this day....and I'm 50 yrs old!
He's always been adorable and still is....I've always loved his music too.
THIS IS 1984, my sister and I turned 17 y.o., and we were the
C/O 1984 as we Graduated High School. IT was the most AWESOME 😎 TIME FOR MUSIC, & BON JOVI WAS taking off in their

Fast-forward to 2024 and still jamming this 🎸🎶🎶🎶
This footage is historic
❤😂 Married my wife in 1984 and I was a senior in high school back then.. what an awesome song I lived it!!!..... Peace ✌️ out WARRIOR 💯
1984 wjat an incredible year..
This is a promising band. I think they’re going to make it big.
🤔
Lol
😂
🤭🤭🤭🤭
I've heard good things about them 😂
They were just babies then. In 24 I had 3 babies. Had them all in 4 1/2 yrs. Always loved watching Bon Jovi on MTV
God how I miss the 80’s! Love Bon Jovi and all the bands. Miss Dick Clark he was an amazing man!
They were so young and sweet. No idea how their lives would change 2 years from then ❤
The 80s were the best and American bandstand was a great show and never missed it. What a treasure and thank you TH-cam and technology. This is with Bon Jovi back in the day! Love you, Dick Clark, and rest in peace and love you, Bon Jovi and the gang still rockin! ❤

Indeed 💯 ❤
I was a Senior also Class of 84
Mark Goodman was talking about how funny this is on Sirius today so I had to look it up. Great album. I was in Jr High when this album came out. Saw them twice in 89 with Skid Row.
That's why I'm here. 😂

my favorite during my high school years!!! 1987 baby 😊 Jon and Ritchie Sambora ❤
16 yrs old in 84 cant deny that i was one of the many fortunate ones that got to live it see it and be a part of it great time to be alive
Until today no party or road trip without BJ ✊🔥✊.
My kids and grandchilds grew up with them and if we are in the car it is a MUST to listen to their great music...
Bon Jovi was and is a beautiful man with a big heart same as Dorothea 💝💝💝.
Crazy...I remember when this aired....
❤me too❤ I was 19
I always loved the Runaway song! ♥️🌟👋
The 80s were the best ever!!! The best time of my life!!! One of the best bands of the 80s!!! Great rock band!!!❤❤❤...
Blasted this in my 79 Chevette my senior year of high school in 84!
I watched this performance the day it aired, awesome!!!😊
It's funny how we never realized they were all lipsyncing back in the day😂😂😂😂
Some of the best memories in music.
Miss AB and dick Clark 😢🎵🎶🎤
I remember wondering why they didn't speak into the mic theybwere just singing through haha. The doors ruined it on ed Sullivan bye saying "high"
However, no Arsenio Hall's show years later the bands played live, and it was loud. LOL
No instruments were plugged in. 😉
Seen this and thinking, the signers cute but cocky. 30+ yrs later, still playing and helping his community and still looking good.
Which one's the signer
Got to admit.. They were pretty tight. Remember when this came on the stage. Fresh, new, big hair, great pants !! 😅 Time goes by fast.. Thank you Maynard James..
Notice that when Jon introduces Bryan David, the band's keyboardist, he uses Bryan's real last name.
I noticed
Jooz especially back then always hid their identity by changing their joo names to something more western.
1984 I was 15 going on 16 what an awesome time looking at this ugly world that we live in now can I go back to 1980 and it's relive it all over and stay there
Sorry, but it was just as ugly. The only difference is many more of us are awake and evil has been exposed by the Light.
@ALM1936 yes we definitely had hate n so many other things, but they were never on this level we have now,
@@michaelmyers3892 kinda curious what things or people you think are so bad right now?
Amazing how they sounded exactly like the studio tracks off the album. That's real talent!
BonJovi its never to late to discover them.
Love this video of the star band! Always enjoyed Dick Clark show especially when Bon Jovi band was entertaining everyone! ♥️🌟👋
Getting signed to a major label, having hit radio songs, going on world tours, videos being shown on MTV & performing on Dick Clark’s “American Bandstand”…Wow!!!
I know right who would ever think it possible with an uncle head of a major recording studio…it’s mostly who ya know, ya know?

Young but stars even back then.
I saw them in 1984 backing up The Scorpions and I kind of died. 🥰
I saw them open for RATT. They didn't do "she dont know me" I was mad
I love each one of them. I wonder how they felt lipsyncing that whole thing. Still love it.
Great footage. I was 12 yrs old at this time and fully in to MTV. I bought this album that same year, but somehow missed this AB appearance. Great to watch!
05:21 Didn't know that was how Richie joined the band, how awesome!
Man i miss the 80"s & 90's. Such a great time to grow up in. Love these jeresy boys as well. Much love from Kentucky!!
RIP Alec.
Incredible start!!!!!!❤❤❤❤
So young and cute 🥰 Richie!!! The clothes ! The perms! Miss the 80s! All those who say Jon doesn’t have a good voice, can go and eat dust.
But he was the one who coined Steve Perry as ‘the Voice’. Jon was humble enough about his talent to be able and willing to praise others. Admirable of him.
The mighty BON JOVI💯🎸💣🙌🤟👏👑👑👑
I love the 80s was so lucky to grow up in this era John bonjovi was my favorite band ❤️. Love him till the end and beyond ❤️.
They are FOREVER LEGENDARY! ♥️♥️♥️ Man I love them!!!!
We had the Best Bands! & Bon Jovi was definitely an all Time Favorite for most of us Xers. Loved American Bandstand
I been with this band since the beginning of time he's one of my favorites of all time.❤❤
I was 27. Loved him then and still love him❤
I really enjoyed rewatching this. I remember watching this back in my childhood hood. I’ve always had a crush on Bon Jovi. 😍😂
Always a fan of the star band Jovi! ♥️🌟👋
Come on now they should have millions of 👍 get with it! They are awesome’. ❤😅😊
Fun to re watch and reminisce. I also remember 10 years of this same formula in music and couldn't wait for it to end at about year 9.5.
Csodálatos hangod van.
After listening to this song in 1984, I became a Bon Jovi fan😀
The lead solo was actually played by Tim Pierce on the album’s recording studio.
This was the first record I ever bought! Love Bon Jovi.❤ I was only 14 when this came out! Wow! Time flies, and I still listen to 80's music all the time.

The TV host said "Sounds like a French Band". He never thought that they would change the world a couple of years later.
That’s Dick Clark.

Great hair styles!
AB and Dick Clark two American icons!! I wonder if John still has that shirt?
First time seeing them was opening for Ratt at Market Square Arena in Indianapolis in 1985. Great show! Hard to believe almost 40 years ago!
When this aired my dad had just graduated highschool and became an uncle, and my mom had just moved from new york times fly
