There is no better guitarist for Bon Jovi than Richie. The chemistry he had with John, his vocals, his song writing . I have never seen any guitarist that had as much charisma and love for what he was doing. When I watched him play it was as though he was “making love” to his guitar (not in a sick way), he pulled me into the emotions he was feeling as he played. THAT is what I miss the most. Plus the chemistry.
I agree with everything you just said with the exception stating the chemistry he “had” with JBJ.. no doubt Richie’s departure was anything but amicable but we all know they promised when they started the band that they would not air dirty laundry in public and to keep it in the “family” and they are one of the few bands that kept to that oath. That being said I really believe Richie will be back sooner than later because they are just that. Family, brothers for life and I don’t think they can really function without each other. They all fed off each other when it came to writing all those opuses that gave us memory’s for life. I think hands down best band in the world. I can’t think of one other band that had the amount of number one hits that are as timeless. They have so many love songs that went number 1 they could make 3 full albums.. who does that? So good. Richie will be back jamming next to JBJ for sure.
@@maverick744 Richie actually confirmed a few weeks ago that he’ll be back to performing and recording with the band as soon as Jon gets his voice together.
For all those who love the band, this ceremony meant a lot. Seeing all the band members together again as a team was very exciting. Especially the end of "When We Were Us", with the complicity of Jon and Richie...like in the old times. I feel very nostalgic. They're legendary. Long live Bon Jovi!
I just realized, after watching this: Jon is not just a great performer, musician or a great looking guy, but a GREAT humble, grateful, intelligent, caring, supercharismatic and wonderful human being!! What a long but beautiful speech, giving praise to all entitled so gracefully. When he got a standing ovation, man...I could cry with him. What a well deserved induction for him and the guys: Congratulations Bon Jovi!
@jabba2000ad Yes, i was fortunate too, saw them in the 80's on their Slippery tour in Holland. But I think you are responding to their performance, while I was referring to his speech only.
The fact that David Bryan, who was suffering from COVID-19, did the opening for us, and ONLY him, was truly amazing, if you’re reading this David, God bless you and I hope you get better, and god bless you Bon Jovi band mates, you’ve made 80% of the 90s for me
My favorite American Band, my first singer crush, BonJovi!! Just as great as always! I wish I had caught more of them at The Monsters of Rock concert in Mannheim Germany but hey I was in my 20's, in the military, and unfortunately didn't wake up in time to see the whole thing but did manage to make it to front just as they were exiting the stage! Only concert I have ever been to in my life. The next concert I go to I would love to have my favorite American Group and my favorite Korean group Stray Kids there. It could be like East meets West or something like that! Now that would be a concert I would spend my last dollar on to be sure to see!! I am glad Bon Jovi finally received the recognition they deserve!! Great job guys!!
God willing Richie will come back to the band and I will still watch you guys playing together with him. Congratulations for the tribute you deserve. Brazil loves you.
Still the best live band all these years later. Always saw them when they played in Philly. Long live the Spectrum. Will never forget taking my at the time teenager sister to her first ever concert to see Bon Jovi, think she cried through most of it and throwing her Hall’s cough drops at Jon to get his attention lol…it didn’t work but we still talk about it all these years later. A Bon Jovi concert was always a great time. Thank you gentleman, you still have the magic.
I saw Bon Jovi twice. The first time I saw him crying up against a wall because he had nothing more to give. The second time, he was on top of the world. And deserves the nomination to the Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame.
Can you hear those licks? The blues? That "Its My Life" My god ... Those backing vocals? - That's Richie Sambora! as a big old fan he will be back - He has to come back - Its time for Bon Jovi to go full circle and dare I say, end this ride on a 40 year high 💪
I've been saying for a couple of years now that they should do a ten date run in the US and maybe 10 dates in Europe as the original line up, no Phil X, no Shanks and no Everett Bradley. Sadly Alec has passed but get Richie back in for that last run and retire. Even though Jon's voice is shot to pieces in 2022 it would be great to see.
Rest in peace, Alec John Such! I really hoped to see him make special guest appearances with the band here and there, since this performance, but sadly, that can never happen.
By far my favourite version of "when we were us"! Just love it and watch it since that night every now and then! Seeing JBJ&RS together makes me smile everytime :D
I've was in a band as lead vocalist back in the 90s. We didn't have huge shows or very big tours but we had some great shows and even an europe tour. I must say that singing for more than 2 hours is really difficult and not a lot of people can do it. After 1hour and 30 minutes of singing rock yoir voice starts feeling weak and the power in it simply dissapears. Singing the high notes become harder and harder. The next morning after the show you can barely speak. It's imposible for a singer to sing the same as when he was young and believe me i know what i's saying. For those who say john can't sing anymore or that his concerts after 2013 became a shitty experience just try to sing for a month 2 hours daily. You will see how hard is it. Also during a concert you can't use the studio vocal techniques because you have to be sure that your voice will resist for 2 hours. Many singers don't push their voice at the limit in the concerts so they can finish it. They can do better but they choose not to destroy their voice. Next time you say Jon's voice is horrible try to do a concert with his music and see if you can sing like him. (You won't)
he never had the correct technique to start with the majority of his voice issues came from straining his voice too much with knowledge how to maintain it yes, it would've aged, but it could've aged well...
@@ostankovalex1176 But if he did it "correctly" we never would have gotten the music that we did. We loved the fact that he was straining his voice like he did in "Living on a prayer" and there's a reason that nobody else sounds like that, people care about their voices and don't want to fuck them up. Jon didn't know better but it gave us some of the best and biggest rock hits.
@@vladimirgertner3960 not exaclty true he has some good stuff that is sung correctly. He just destroyed his voice doing incorrect stuff. Also, it would be great anyway and there are all chances, it would even sound better in general. And the albums starting from Crush would not be voice dead.
One of the best things that came into my life in the last year is Bon Jovi. This band and their music changed my life. I truly love Bon Jovi, always. 💞
@@111highgh I agreed with U they had 1 good album "slippery when wet" & a couple good songs on "New Jersey" like the song "bad medicine" then "Days of Glory" then they died. I just seen them in concert in 1986 & 1989 & they were great but they were done. They don't deserve a wing
Overdue. And two other words come to mind; Thank you, Bon Jovi, for being my childhood and continuing to be my adulthood. To me, there’s no such a thing as music in my life if it weren’t for the Bon Jovi band. Forty years strong and still going! Keep on keeping on, Gents’! We love you so much! 😭❤️
Neil Boughton well, it’s very simple. Richie is not coming back into the band. Don’t know whether you read it on the internet, but when the Because We can album was touring, he got caught rocking up late at a concert and it was the decision made that Jon Bon kicked him out of the band. I mean, it’s great to see him on this video, but yeah, just saying. I don’t think that he will ever be apart of the band again.
Jackson Dunkley that was a rumor. Jbj and Richie both shut that rumor down. Richie made the decision to not show up because he couldn’t handle the lifestyle anymore and wanted to be with his daughter
Richie left the band because his daughter and mom needed him. He has a fashion company too that needed his attention as well. He couldn't handle being on tour anymore. I've heard that right from Richie Sambora in an interview. Yes, it's sad that he's not in the band anymore. I love Bon Jovi. Been a fan since 1984. I'm ALWAYS going to buy and listen to them!! Bon Jovi forever!
The first time I saw the video to "You Give Love a Bad Name" I knew Bon Jovi was FOR REAL. I was a teenager on a trip to San Antonio. Couldn't take my eyes off the TV when that video played. And then... "Wanted Dead or Alive" - And I thought these guys are going to be LEGENDS someday. I wasn't wrong. Thank you, Bon Jovi! - Manny
The real fans will never forget the Richie Sambora. Good to see him put the band on his back again. His vocals were second to none that night. His best performance of it’s my life in a long time. Made when we were us a real Bon Jovi song. And hitting the prayer high notes just made my jaw drop. We miss you Richie, can’t wait for the new album
KaKAuKo ge was great too, but he didn’t have the same impact Richie did, especially considering him and Hugh both played on the early albums in studio. That said Alec’s vocal harmonies and falsettos were missed severely. The magic Jon Richie Alec and David could make with their voices is unmatched
Bert Sonder I love Phil, but IMO, this wasn’t his time. I kind of wish that it was just the guys who were getting inducted. Phil and Everett Bradley are absolutely amazing talents. I do prefer Richie to Phil, but Phil has some amazing moments. He covers AC/DC vocals better than anyone I’ve seen and he can shred, just in a different way than Richie shreds
Felt so nostalgic! I was also there! As a 36 yr old man, I'm glad to say Jon's is still good. Richie is gone from the band but is still my favorite since late 80s and early 90s. ♡♡♡
Guess you didn't watch the original version before Jon was Auto-tuned? It's brutal, Jon really can't sing at all anymore, sadly. th-cam.com/video/Oixyd0-kxNA/w-d-xo.html
These guys are part of my life. I love so much this band for more than 20 years. I feel sooo proud of them! They deserved and I vote every single day for they to be inducted. I wish they could had play wanted dead or alive😢.... Jon and Richie are perfect together ❤. I thought after that, Richie would be back...
Here I am, four years later, crying again my heart out to this! I love this band so much, it's one of the most important things in my life! They are a really big part of who I am, wouldnt be here without these guys lyrics and melodies
I've just watched this in 2022 and had a mini concert by myself. Vino - check Mood lighting - check The band I grew up listening to - check I found myself watching this tonight as my partner likes to tell me Bon Jovi are S#i! We've been together 27 years and he is a big Steve Vai, Joe Satriani and Phil Lynott fan. Tonight, whilst watching this I reminded him of the year his Mum sadly passed away, 2011. I'll give him his due, through his grief he still accompanied me to Bon Jovi at Old Trafford in Manchester, England. I had bought seated tickets but decided I wanted to be among it so we made our way to the ground and stood with many people in the pouring rain, I mean pouring rain! My water proof was not worth the money!! Forgetting the rain, I found myself engulfed in the tunes I love and have listened to for so many years. My partner seemed to be enjoying himself, maybe just tolerating things for me. The guitar started and I knew immediately it was "Always", I immersed myself in the rain and my emotions but then looked to my partner, who by this point was stood in the middle of Old Trafford, in the rain, listening to a band he told me are S#i! crying his heart out. He has said so many times that he needed the rain and the song to let his emotions out. So, I say peeps, sometimes just listen to the music, forget the normal, explore things different and let your emotions run with the tide.
GREAT JON BON JOVI!!!! I'm an old Italian woman, so I was not Jon's fan in youth, but now that I know him I wish to express my appreciation not only for the great handsome performer, voice. lyrics, but also for the personality of a real good, significant, agreable, careful, responsible guy .... all the qualities we dream to share in family and society. Congratulations JON, YOU ARE LEGEND!!!
Said so, sorry to add Jon, that I reject totally👎 the Biden Clan, Obama, Clinton, Great Reset👿OMS and their sperimental vaccinations 😷of million of people, also to your kids Jon!!!. I had Covid, but I've refused forced vaccination, I don't believe in material health. We are more spiritual beings💓than bodies🫀..
Well said couldn't agree more I am truly proud to be afan of jon and bon jovi at last a person in a rock band that talks sense a true gentleman on and of stage and thanks for all the charity work they Partake in and do not brag about soul kitchen food banks etc
First time seeing this video of BON JOVI'S Inductees in the Rock in Roll Hall of Fame. They should have been honored a long time ago. OMG...I have tears of joy watching this wonderful event. Thank you sooo much for sharing! 💖
I love the friendship that they have, even after all this time!!! But I got emotional when Jon brought up Richie leaving the band in 2013!!! I'm happy Bon Jovi got inducted, but as a newfound fan, it's taking me a while to get used to Richie not being there anymore!
They deserve it. Still wiping away the tears out. I love them. We used to listen to their music as kids, in school in camps. Was lucky enough to have them in town.
BROUGHT BIG TEARS TO ME WHEN HE THANKED HIS WIFE. IT IS A HARD LIFE TO BE ON THE ROAD. THE L❤️VE JON HAS FOR HIS HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEART, HIS LIFE, HIS EVERYTHING.
Dang!! Seeing Sambora and JBJ sharing the microphone like that on, “When we were Us” was almost too much to take! The fact that they were able to place their differences to the side for this one night- so grateful! It’s like seeing your parents co-parent well after a divorce to both be at the wedding- Too bad the divide between them seems to have created an irreparable harm in terms of reuniting fully/always/completely but hey- at least all of us in the extended family got to see them “dance together” at the wedding for the sake of all of us💝💝 They had something special- I pray that if it’s meant to be that a full healing and repair of their relationship can happen; maybe some day
Love you guys still after almost 40 yrs. Best band ever. Even at my age of 69, jon birthday is 4 days after mine. He and I grew old together. I even have my car with a Bond jovi sticker, and front license Plate that say Bon Jovi. Love them dearly !!!!!
Richie could have been like a great lead vocal too (in my opinion) ... but he didn’t attempt to steal that spotlight from JBJ .. has just been like a support when he thinks Jon needs him ... he has left the group not because of jealousy or money but already reached the peak and just now want to chill and just self actualizing about the great ride it has been for him ... Rock on for Richie!
The best band ever finally got in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame!!!!! I have been following Bon Jovi from day one and it’s the only music my daughter would hear in the early days of her life. To this day at age 28 she still listens to Bon Jovi just as I do. You are incredible men ❤️
Thank you, bon jovi for the wonderful memories, i have listened to ye since i was a teeny bopper and i 'm still bopping to yer tunes! Bon jovi 's introduction into the rock and roll hall of fame in 2018 was long overdue! Love you, guys!♥️
Aguardando com ansiedade . Obrigada pelo presente de dia das mães ! Admiro a pessoa do Jon Bon Jovi, muito humano e consciente desse momento difícil que o mundo atravessa e fazendo sua parte para tornar menos sofrido . Gratidão!
Seeing this for the first time. I very recently said, why did the Hall of Fame take so long. Jon must be devastated losing his golden voice. It's hard to see him like that. Too bad Richie had to leave the band. They were perfect together. I wonder if Jon will ever regain his kick-ass singing voice. Thank God we had a blast while it lasted. 😎
I think it's already my 4th time I watch it and it has been one hour with a smile on my face . The whole freaking time :) love you guys. BON JOVI fan since I was 14 years old. ❤🇺🇸💪
Teary eyes watching this video,, I remember my younger days with my father playing Bon Jovi songs 😍 I've grown hearing Bon Jovi's music and me myself had idolized you til now 😊
The humility of Jon to let the band members to give their speeches first or talk at all show the character of the man. Bon Jovi my favorite of all time, followed closely by Def Leppard. Both in the Hall of Fame . Also, Jon and Joe being good friends is a bonus.
What a magical time, what a magical moment. I felt like it was an illusion when these were all happening back in 2018. It was like a magical dream come true. I'm in tears again after watching this. Couldn't be prouder of the boys, and especially JBJ. Love you too much man.
I'm watching this and seeing Richie and Jon on the stage together with smiles on their faces and singing. Trust me..."Tears of happiness and a huge smile on my face!"

That being said I really believe Richie will be back sooner than later because they are just that. Family, brothers for life and I don’t think they can really function without each other. They all fed off each other when it came to writing all those opuses that gave us memory’s for life. I think hands down best band in the world.

Long live BON JOVI ❤❤
Richies guitar really breathes a whole different life into the band it’s amazing
❤agreed❤🎉
Dude Sambora sounded awful. And he totally botched the solo on Its My Life. He is nowhere near the talk box. Inexcusable

The best day in Bon Jovi last decade... Jon, Richie, Tico, Dave , Alec and Hugh... that was the last time Bon Jovi made me cry for happiness!!!!
I'm sad that Alec is gone now.
RIP Alec John Such 🥀
The fact that David Bryan, who was suffering from COVID-19, did the opening for us, and ONLY him, was truly amazing, if you’re reading this David, God bless you and I hope you get better, and god bless you Bon Jovi band mates, you’ve made 80% of the 90s for me
Should he have been quarantined?
@@Vera-xu3xw no he was at home, he did the opening of this video so he was in quarantine
The greatest band in the world!! It’s good to see Richie performing again.
Richie sambora e bon Jovi together. It's a perfect combination, great show and vocals. Congratulations .
For those of us that have, and still follow Bon Jovi, this never gets old. Congrats guys....on a well deserved milestone!
I’m extremely happy they got in while Alec was still with us!
I am glad they got this while Alec was alive. R.I.P. ALEC

Jon also looked quite moved by it.. you could see Richie leaving broke his heart

Made when we were us a real Bon Jovi song. And hitting the prayer high notes just made my jaw drop. We miss you Richie, can’t wait for the new album
KaKAuKo ge was great too, but he didn’t have the same impact Richie did, especially considering him and Hugh both played on the early albums in studio. That said Alec’s vocal harmonies and falsettos were missed severely. The magic Jon Richie Alec and David could make with their voices is unmatched
I think phil x should be given minutes to show off here, im sad he is just additional guitar to the band
Bert Sonder I love Phil, but IMO, this wasn’t his time. I kind of wish that it was just the guys who were getting inducted. Phil and Everett Bradley are absolutely amazing talents. I do prefer Richie to Phil, but Phil has some amazing moments. He covers AC/DC vocals better than anyone I’ve seen and he can shred, just in a different way than Richie shreds
So Right. Enjoy this gift: th-cam.com/video/Mbjw_n3ytvk/w-d-xo.html
Felt so nostalgic! I was also there! As a 36 yr old man, I'm glad to say Jon's is still good. Richie is gone from the band but is still my favorite since late 80s and early 90s. ♡♡♡
Guess you didn't watch the original version before Jon was Auto-tuned? It's brutal, Jon really can't sing at all anymore, sadly. th-cam.com/video/Oixyd0-kxNA/w-d-xo.html
Well-deserved honor for the best band in the world!♥️ So proud it made me cry.💙
So rare to have all members past and present, together to perform was magic. Rest In Power Alec John Such.
Nice to see Alec, Richie, David, Tico and Jon together again! Thanks Bon Jovi! Obrigado para o Brasil!!!!
El miembro original de bon jovi
Fantastic seeing all the guys together again. Thank you for all the amazing years of rock music. ❤️ you all xx
These guys are part of my life. I love so much this band for more than 20 years. I feel sooo proud of them! They deserved and I vote every single day for they to be inducted.
I wish they could had play wanted dead or alive😢.... Jon and Richie are perfect together ❤.
I thought after that, Richie would be back...
Agree. Enjoy this gift: th-cam.com/video/Mbjw_n3ytvk/w-d-xo.html
Thank you guys for everything! I grew up with your music and you saved me more than just ones. You're legends! Congrats Bon Jovi!
Here I am, four years later, crying again my heart out to this! I love this band so much, it's one of the most important things in my life! They are a really big part of who I am, wouldnt be here without these guys lyrics and melodies
I've just watched this in 2022 and had a mini concert by myself.
Vino - check
Mood lighting - check
The band I grew up listening to - check
I found myself watching this tonight as my partner likes to tell me Bon Jovi are S#i!
We've been together 27 years and he is a big Steve Vai, Joe Satriani and Phil Lynott fan.
Tonight, whilst watching this I reminded him of the year his Mum sadly passed away, 2011.
I'll give him his due, through his grief he still accompanied me to Bon Jovi at Old Trafford in Manchester, England.
I had bought seated tickets but decided I wanted to be among it so we made our way to the ground and stood with many people in the pouring rain, I mean pouring rain! My water proof was not worth the money!!
Forgetting the rain, I found myself engulfed in the tunes I love and have listened to for so many years. My partner seemed to be enjoying himself, maybe just tolerating things for me.
The guitar started and I knew immediately it was "Always", I immersed myself in the rain and my emotions but then looked to my partner, who by this point was stood in the middle of Old Trafford, in the rain, listening to a band he told me are S#i! crying his heart out.
He has said so many times that he needed the rain and the song to let his emotions out.
So, I say peeps, sometimes just listen to the music, forget the normal, explore things different and let your emotions run with the tide.
GREAT JON BON JOVI!!!! I'm an old Italian woman, so I was not Jon's fan in youth, but now that I know him I wish to express my appreciation not only for the great handsome performer, voice. lyrics, but also for the personality of a real good, significant, agreable, careful, responsible guy .... all the qualities we dream to share in family and society. Congratulations JON, YOU ARE LEGEND!!!
Said so, sorry to add Jon, that I reject totally👎 the Biden Clan, Obama, Clinton, Great Reset👿OMS and their sperimental vaccinations 😷of million of people, also to your kids Jon!!!. I had Covid, but I've refused forced vaccination, I don't believe in material health. We are more spiritual beings💓than bodies🫀..
Well said couldn't agree more I am truly proud to be afan of jon and bon jovi at last a person in a rock band that talks sense a true gentleman on and of stage and thanks for all the charity work they Partake in and do not brag about soul kitchen food banks etc
I grew up.. listening to every bon jovi songs . They are part of my life
First time seeing this video of BON JOVI'S Inductees in the Rock in Roll Hall of Fame. They should have been honored a long time ago. OMG...I have tears of joy watching this wonderful event. Thank you sooo much for sharing! 💖
I love the friendship that they have, even after all this time!!! But I got emotional when Jon brought up Richie leaving the band in 2013!!! I'm happy Bon Jovi got inducted, but as a newfound fan, it's taking me a while to get used to Richie not being there anymore!
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY EVERYDAY 💕 LOVE ♥️JBJ♥️ FROM ITALY 😘🇮🇹💙
Happy mother's day @francescaCocola
💕💕💕💕💕
@@marlibatecini5329 anche tu in linea per la premiere ? 😂😍❤
#Happymomsdayforutoo
Happy. Mother's Day to all Mother's!
They deserve it. Still wiping away the tears out. I love them. We used to listen to their music as kids, in school in camps. Was lucky enough to have them in town.
Well this 47 year old mom just felt like a teenager again...swoon.....best part? When Jon thanks his beautiful wife....❤️
Same feelings😊
BROUGHT BIG TEARS TO ME WHEN HE THANKED HIS WIFE. IT IS A HARD
LIFE TO BE ON THE ROAD. THE L❤️VE JON
HAS FOR HIS HIGH
SCHOOL SWEETHEART,
HIS LIFE, HIS EVERYTHING.
Dang!! Seeing Sambora and JBJ sharing the microphone like that on, “When we were Us” was almost too much to take! The fact that they were able to place their differences to the side for this one night- so grateful! It’s like seeing your parents co-parent well after a divorce to both be at the wedding- Too bad the divide between them seems to have created an irreparable harm in terms of reuniting fully/always/completely but hey- at least all of us in the extended family got to see them “dance together” at the wedding for the sake of all of us💝💝 They had something special- I pray that if it’s meant to be that a full healing and repair of their relationship can happen; maybe some day
I Love the Original Bonjovi .
Ive raised with you and your Music Guys.
You are the Reason that Today iam a Musician.
Love you guys still after almost 40 yrs. Best band
ever. Even at my age of
69, jon birthday is 4 days after mine. He and I grew
old together. I even have
my car with a Bond jovi sticker, and front license
Plate that say Bon Jovi.
Love them dearly !!!!!
Thx so much for posting this (my birthday gift!). So much deserved. Will rock with them forever. David looks well. Bless!
This makes me cry each and every time I watch it!! Original...
Richie could have been like a great lead vocal too (in my opinion) ... but he didn’t attempt to steal that spotlight from JBJ .. has just been like a support when he thinks Jon needs him ... he has left the group not because of jealousy or money but already reached the peak and just now want to chill and just self actualizing about the great ride it has been for him ... Rock on for Richie!
Yeah. Its like an oldie in 80's. Miss them all...
For my it's the best band ever. I listen JBJ since 80' and i never replaced them with other. For me, they are the best!! Thank you!!!
Bin jovi still the best vocalist
My favorite front man of a rock band ever, I want to be like him when I was a kid. He deserved that honor. Damn...I love this band!!!
Por favor que vuelva Richie. Ya se ha visto la buena onda que tiene la banda con el.
Richie I miss you!!

Feliz dia das mães! 👏🏼 Do Brasil 🇧🇷
I grow up with Bon Jovi now i'm old school age 46 and still Hey we half way there hey we living on a Prayer !!! Cheers all !!
Happy Mothers day to all of the mothers ❤❤ This moment will live as one of the best in music history!
The best band ever finally got in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame!!!!! I have been following Bon Jovi from day one and it’s the only music my daughter would hear in the early days of her life. To this day at age 28 she still listens to Bon Jovi just as I do. You are incredible men ❤️
richie de the best of all them!! best singer, best musician, the best front man, the best partner!!! bon jovi live when richie is there!
Cero Positivo Rock CBA he is. But god. He’s fucked there. Lol. Love him
Best musician, yes. Best frontman? I don't think so. Jon's probably the best frontman that a rock band could have.
I love jon bon jovi the purest love he has for his wife.
Thank you, bon jovi for the wonderful memories, i have listened to ye since i was a teeny bopper and i 'm still bopping to yer tunes! Bon jovi 's introduction into the rock and roll hall of fame in 2018 was long overdue! Love you, guys!♥️
No Sambora , BJ can say Goodbye ! Sambora is th Heart of Bon Jovi,
Aguardando com ansiedade . Obrigada pelo presente de dia das mães ! Admiro a pessoa do Jon Bon Jovi, muito humano e consciente desse momento difícil que o mundo atravessa e fazendo sua parte para tornar menos sofrido . Gratidão!
Seeing this for the first time. I very recently said, why did the Hall of Fame take so long. Jon must be devastated losing his golden voice. It's hard to see him like that. Too bad Richie had to leave the band. They were perfect together. I wonder if Jon will ever regain his kick-ass singing voice. Thank God we had a blast while it lasted. 😎
what an energy after 35 years of career !!!! Even if it’s remastered if we watch the original... but wooow they deserve their rank in the hall of fame
Hi Bon Jovi, not a huge glam fan, but you guys transcended the genre with your quality music and positive attitude. Thanks for all that.
I think it's already my 4th time I watch it and it has been one hour with a smile on my face . The whole freaking time :) love you guys. BON JOVI fan since I was 14 years old. ❤🇺🇸💪
Teary eyes watching this video,, I remember my younger days with my father playing Bon Jovi songs 😍
I've grown hearing Bon Jovi's music and me myself had idolized you til now 😊
As a DJ/Musician for 30 years, this was the band that changed my life. God bless them!!
"Love meant more than lust when we were us"
That lyric Jon & Richie singing into the one microphone. Something in it just got me.
Richie and his vocals ... Bon Jovi can't deliver without him :(
The humility of Jon to let the band members to give their speeches first or talk at all show the character of the man.
Bon Jovi my favorite of all time, followed closely by Def Leppard. Both in the Hall of Fame . Also, Jon and Joe being good friends is a bonus.
Ebaaaaaa!!!! Mais uma oportunidade de ver a banda completa com Richie Sambora, amor eterno por esses caras👏👏👏👏💝💝💝💝💝💖💖💖💖
O melhor guitarrista
Thank you❤🙏 for all these years with you Bon Jovi Band!!!. It's a moment of pleasure😌 love all time. We love you❤❤. Thanks, thanks.
What a magical time, what a magical moment. I felt like it was an illusion when these were all happening back in 2018. It was like a magical dream come true. I'm in tears again after watching this. Couldn't be prouder of the boys, and especially JBJ. Love you too much man.
I'm watching this and seeing Richie and Jon on the stage together with smiles on their faces and singing. Trust me..."Tears of happiness and a huge smile on my face!"
Jon & Richie ‼️❤️☮️
Thanks guys you rock and always will!! JBJ for life.....
Bon Jovi amo essa banda
Uma das melhores bandas
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
É a melhor!!!!!❤❤❤
Hi
Uma das melhores não, "A MELHOR"
A melhor
Isso é um show??
I saw Bon Jovi concert twice in Toronto and they are absolutely brilliant. Can’t wait for their new album to come .
Rest in Peace Alec John Such, long live to best bassplayer Bon Jovi band!!!!
David Bryan's background vocals are like Michael Anthony's background vocals on Van Halen records. They are so distinct and cannot be replicated.
Yeah, that is true
This is what’s known as an insane truth. Something so true people look at you like you’re insane when you say it but you’re absolutely right
*Richie's background vocals. Fixed it for you
Bon Jovi - The greatest band EVER! CONGRATULATIONS!!
Very clear to see how valuable Richie is to this band.
Bon Jovi, Bon Jovi, Bon Jovi 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
It brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful story, specialy when Jon remembered David s dad.
