I used to listen to this when i was younger and never understood what the song was about. But now i do, and i love it. My dad has the best taste in music to show me this.
Sadly that will never happen again all most all of the so called rock music today is written by computers and not true artists like Jon. And what isn't written by computers is politically motivated by corporate writers.
trini lopez So right man! It's still feels good to just go back to what... the 90s. Good times. Btw I'm 17 if ur wondering. I sound like an old man reflecting back to the "good ole times", don't I?xD
@@flufnroll Me. I like my computer, flat-screen, etc. Plus the fashion was awful. Music was good. Today's music seems like shit, but it is a trade off.
@@flufnroll Me. I don't actually want to trade in all of our social and scientific/technological progress just to experience some music that we can still listen to now, and on a lovely portable wireless touchscreen device
@@TheMarkmcr almost noone at the time wrote riffs to songs. Most songs on the radio back then were played with chords. And there's this unbelievable piano riff that makes you wonder if Jon Bon Jovi (who wrote it) was pure genius...
You ok my dad did some sick shit to my sister it took 2 police officer to get me off my dad I was only 11 she was 7 I’m 23 and my dad knows not fuck with me what ever you do don’t hesitate to call 911
New Jersey’s Finest! If only I listened to Bon Jovi a lot more in the 80’s like I should have, I could have appreciated this music even more now then ever! Living On a Prayer will always be my favorite Bon Jovi Track!
"Dad, why's this sound so... awesome?" "Son, because this song was made by a group of people who worked together to make every part of it great, instead of one person who forgot their own last name that can only get one part of a song write: their face." --What I'll tell my kids when I introduce them to the real music
This song is a great start for the band! The crazy thing is, when played at 1.5x speed, it bears a striking resemblance to the Mega Man 1 stage select! I can’t be the only one who noticed that!
I'll never understand why John Bon Jovi didn't actually sing ,"rather than mumble up," the lyrics , at the end. I would think ,him showing off his high vocal range ,at that point in his career would have been a huge push!
Yesssssssss.. makes me proud to be a born and bread Jersey Girl. (I remember the attention the house he grew up in got when it was given away on MTV..I was a 14 yo kid.. time goes fast..)
This song was stuck in my head after watching an episode of The Mandalorian when there was a ship chase scene in season 2. I know this song wasn't used in the episode but my brain made the connection to that moment of running away and this epic song.
I was lucky to stumble into a bar absolutely plastered and there was a tribute band playing this and I couldn't for the love of me remember who sang this song then it all came back!!
Years ago, had a little doggie. I named her Jovi, after this song. She was an outcast, a little "runaway" Actually, she was a big doggie? lol. No one else wanted her? So I took her in. gave her all the love that Heaven could allow. (sorry Bruce) That's what we are here for. This song brings back memories....
80s were the best years man. I was a kid in the 80s. I see the lives of kids now compared to the 80s and it makes me sick. We used to be able to live comfortable with the man working and taking care of the financials...... Yea right now days unless you're making 70k plus..... friends of mine that have masters degrees, making less than me and I'm at 20 an hour..... We need to rise up and bring the good living back.... this music makes me happy from remembering nny childhood when life was good..... now days....i fear for my kids.... not for nothing, prior military.... sorry for the rant.... had to release it
Still one of the most energetic and kick ass songs ever made. Hard to believe this was his first song. Bon Jovi was destined to be a legend.
Thisstays super, cause this is their very first song, FIRSTVIS ALWAYS THE BEST
@@anishaloysius5821 a homerun on the first hit

Dads kick ass, moms r on average the boring parent
I've grown up to all the good classics of rock and this is one of them
I used to listen to this when i was younger and never understood what the song was about. But now i do, and i love it. My dad has the best taste in music to show me this.
I've got my dad to thank for showing me this awesome era of music.
Me too!!! 🤘
Hearing it at the Nashville concert made me love it even more. Brought back the 80's memories.
My first time hearing this was while watching Paul Blart, and then Bumblebee reminded me of it all these years later.
OMG FUCKING SAAAAME!!! LITERALLY THATS WHY IM ADDICTED TO IT AGAIN! PAUL BLART then BUMBLEBEE. Dude ur fucking awsome!😊😄
Every time I hear this song I think of drunk Paul Blart dancing that the bar
Peanutbutter and blart🤣🤣. Everytime this song comes on I cantstop thinking about paul blart
I wish that people still made music like this nowadays

@@snakewithapen5489... Thanx for the laugh I needed it...
I’ve been searching for this song for years, I’m so glad I’m finally here
I’m not a huge “hair band” fan, but the lyrics of this song are really something else. On the scale of 1-10...
The lyrics are a 12.
Make it a 15, that's about right
The lyrics have always mattered more than anything to most of us..
This song was so fucking ahead of its time
Same about livin' on a prayer.
How exactly?

The Beetles were way ahead of their time, Pure musical geniuses ❤️💜
Maybe, but these songs were right on time for me..
An alltime classic! Bonjovi will never die! 👌💚💚✌
This song always made me remember running away from my dad when I was a teenager.. never imagined having a monster as a father

I'm 11 year old, and legit LOVE this song! Here you see, all types of music, old, new, doesn't matter. It can all be good.
Me too, i’m 12 tho 😂x
And they say the young ones dont know good music. Yeesh their so wrong.
@@monkeyman4015 yes they are wrong. But sadly, in my class you only hear 6ix9ine and that kind of shit.
@@bread1616 ugh! That music sucks! I’m 12 and I know rock this song, among others 80’s music is what’s real!!! And that’s the music I want
No one is ever too young to appreciate music..
Love listening to this while riding the motorcycle!
Same at 57 i remember how many runaways i picked up over the years all the same daddy girl issues they all blend into one 🤣
Wild is the wind...
Quarantine made everyone to listen the music of golden period 💛
This song is a classic
New Jersey’s Finest! If only I listened to Bon Jovi a lot more in the 80’s like I should have, I could have appreciated this music even more now then ever!

I love that movie so funny I like how he thought the alcoholic was lemonade I believe in magic and he falls throw window so funny.
@Cedar Tiger yeah was just trying to agree with the guy yeah I do not care too much I was naming my favorite part of the movie.
@Cedar Tiger Salty much?
2:14 is one of the most underrated guitar solos ever
Tim Pierce!!
@@jimbobc2882 Tim Pierce is a legitimate badass.
Believe it or not, there really is one song better than this one.
MORE of this one.
Was born in 1999 and love listening to classic rock, its better than the modern crap we have today
99 ?
I've got a pair of boots that I bought in 97'...
Man!
Got anything during the 80'S to late 90's had so many great songs
Not at all of our modern stuff is bad tho just most of it
I misread "crap" as "crop" and was like "why TF are you listening to crops"?
Yes
Ah the classics love BonJovi
"Ah you blinked!!! You blinked!!!" "Time to pluck the grape from the vine." "I BELIEVE IN MAGIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
MALL COP😂😂😂
Shoutout to the pops for showing me this genre of music when I was young
Here cuz i listen to the radio and it played something good
"Dad, why's this sound so... awesome?"
"Son, because this song was made by a group of people who worked together to make every part of it great, instead of one person who forgot their own last name that can only get one part of a song write: their face."

Your not the only one. Both Mega Man and Runaway were nostalgic arts in the 80s.
Well, Keiji Inafune, teh guy who created the original series, is a huge rock fan, so that might not be just coincidence.
mäki osaan soittaa tän kitaralla! hitsi ku tääl o paljon suomalaisia, hyvä musiikkimaku meiän kansalla ;)
2019! Even though this song is older than me.
This is the best Song that I have heard ever

THANKS BUMBLEBEE 😍😍😍😍
I've heard this many times on my local classic rock station.
You have to admit...
The lyrics perfectly describe Eleven from Stranger Things.
True
Yeahh
Yep the only reason i am not liking this is because it has 69 likes. I am 7 year old sry
@@ledegrazia6260 That's ok. I would act the same way xD
Yeah
Going to hip-hop Concerts every week, but nothing can take my old roots from me
This is probably the best thing they did
