This is a song that Jon wrote for his wife. Lot of metaphors here. The blond that gave him nightmares is his guitar (apparently he was struggling to write a song). He sleeps on a bed of nails because it's torture being without her. The mistress is the stage, he's not alone because he is with the crowd, but he's lonely because she is not with him. This is such a beautiful love song. And yes, Jon Bon Jovi is absolutely gorgeous, always has been.

A Lot of metaphors in this one. It's a song about how much he misses his wife while on the road. He wants to get back to her. The road is his mistress. His guitar is the blonde. The nails is his pain of being away from her. Just a little bit of info.

The problem with replacing Richie Sambora was not just that he's a great guitarist, but that his harmony vocals with Jon blended perfectly, while perfectly in sync, almost as if they had been singing together all their lives. You can always replace a musician, but voices are unique. And true vocal chemistry is not something you come across very often.

I’m not sure there’s ever been a better vocal duo in rock history!! Jon and Richie were just incredible!!

Jon could SANG! Amazing frontman.

I don't know if anybody mentioned this but Jon Bon Jovi married his high school sweetheart Dorothea. They've been together since they were 14 or 15 and still together today! Unheard of today, and absolutely unheard of in the years when hair metal was at its peak. For a lead singer whom women were throwing themselves at and groupies looking to add the ultimate "notch to their bedpost" he stuck it out with his "girl". That being said, there are a couple of songs that I think you might enjoy from the early 80's which are extremely different but both touching. The first is Kenny Rogers, "Through the Years" which is an homage to an enduring love that has lasted through trials and tributes. A fitting song for a couple married for life. The other is a love song by Phil Collins, who is the actress Lily Collins' (from Netflix Emily in Paris) dad. His band is called Genesis and the song is called "Follow You, Follow Me" I can't listen to it without shedding a tear. I don't know why. I don't relate it to anyone special. The composition and the performance just do me in. If you're looking for something to check out, both are great songs.

Jon is so young here. Now he is a silver fox, still with great hair. LOL He has a charity from where he grew up in New Jersey called JBJ soul kitchen, where the needy can come get a free meal & pay for it by doing dishes or whatever is needed. Pretty cool. Their music is great too. Lots of great tunes, live 'Livin' on a prayer'. Another example of a rockstar doing a balled is Steven Tyler from Aerosmith, singing 'I don't wanna miss a thing' which was used in his daughter Liv's movie Armageddon. That & Dream on are my favorite Aerosmith tunes.

Oh, you MUST watch Bon Jovi 1989 MTV music awards. It's just Jon and Ritchie and 2 guitars and they absolutely stole the show and you want to hear them sing in harmony and you even get some lead vocals by Richie and you will be amazed how their voices were just made to be together. I beg you please watch it

@stacyyoung8496

I've watched that like 50 times lol. Some say that performance inspired the idea of MTV Unplugged.

Jon Bon Jovi wrote the song while dealing with a bad hangover and wrote the lyrics in an attempt to express how he felt at that point in time. In the line, "While my mistress she calls me to stand in her spotlight again," the "mistress" is the music industry and the live stage. The "spotlight" is the media. He calls music his "mistress" to show that it's a thrill, but something that perhaps isn't going to do him any good.

Bon Jovi is one of those groups that sound almost as good live as they do on the CD!! It’s so awesome!!

Been to 4 of their concerts and it seems everyone in the audience knows the the lyrics to all their songs. It’s because it always tells a story that people can relate to. Check out “I’ll Be There For You” It’s My Life,” “Livin on a Prayer”, This Ain’t a Love Song” to name a few.

True fact in 1982 Jon was a solo artist Going to all the New York radio stations with a song called runaway which turned into a hit, the problem was Jon didn't have a band and Quickly had to find a Lead Guitarist (Ritchie Sambora) a Bass player(Alec J Such) and a Drummer(Ticco Torres) The keyboardist(David Bryan) was a friend of Jon's who'd he played in bands with before and also did recording sessions with Jon.

Bon Jovi has a TON of ballads/slow songs. Richie actually has a great voice, and is phenomenal guitar player. Check out Richie’s solo album “Stranger In This Town” and listen to Father Time.

The mistress is the stage in the spotlight. Song was written for his wife.

Used to send this to my wife whenever I missed her because I lived in Germany and she was in England at the time. Favourite line is "so far away each step that I take is on my way home" because of my deployments all over the world. I used to send it and say go outside look at the moon and I would do the same and text "no matter how far away we are we can still see the same things".

I've crushed on this man for decades and he's still gorgeous 💜

I'm not normally a big "lyrics" guy, but this song has a handful of some of the best lines ever written: "I dream about movies they won't make of me when I'm dead" "With an ironclad fist I wake up and French kiss the morning While some marching band keeps its own beat in my head while we're talking" "I wanna be just as close as The Holy Ghost is" "I'm so far away, that each step that I take is on my way home A king's ransom in dimes I'd given each night just to see through this payphone" "Tonight, I won't be alone But you know that don't mean I'm not lonely" Such great lyricism. Vocally Jon just slays it, and Richie slays it on guitar as well. Just a perfect rock ballad. Next Bon Jovi song: Bad Medicine!

Can you imagine beeing a teenager in the audience, seeing this beautiful man (with a killer smile) play guitar and piano (which became his tools of trade when he was 13 and started earning in pubs), sing so sweetly and powerfully - and not fall in love? I'm a man in my 50s and whenever I see live performances from the 80s and 90s I fall in love all over again. Oh, it's no doubt a beautiful ballad. However, my favorite ballads from the band are "My guitar lies bleeding in my arms" "Dry county" and "I'll be there for you" and from Jon's solo projects "Santa Fe", "Dying", "Ugly" and - of course - "Blaze of Glory". When you listen, you'll know why.

Jon wrote this! These Rock ballads were written by true poets. Sung by angels❤❤❤❤

I have seen Bon Jovi live 9 times, not only good looks, great vocals but a superior performer!! This is one of my very, very favorite songs by them. He is an absolute icon!!

His version, of Hallelujah is great

Jon. Beautiful. Not just outside, inside. Huge heart. Richie Sambora on guitar and backing vocals. Have you done "Dead or Aive?" He wrote this for his wife Dorothea. He married his high school sweetheart. 💘 The mistress is the stage and touring. Beautiful❣️ More please. 😊

Before Bon Jovi gave us Bed Of Roses, they gave us Silent Night. Don't let the title fool you. It's not what you think. It's the ultimate break-up song if there ever was one. This is a gem that hardly anyone mentions when talking about the band and hardly anyone actually does a reaction to the song. So, I urge you to check it out and give us your thoughts on it.

Their second album was a commercial disappointment, so the band never really revisited those songs after touring that album. Which is probably why few people seem to remember those songs. Of course everything changed with the third album, Slippery When Wet, but that's another story. But in terms of Bon Jovi canon, it typically starts with Runaway and then skips ahead to SWW. That said, I agree Silent Night is a great song, with all the familiar hallmarks of Bon Jovi at their best. That and Secret Dreams holds up to anything they did later, in my opinion.

They are to totally different songs which there are a lot of people don't know of the first one.

@@rantoppp I think perhaps the biggest issue with 7800 F was the production - it was considerably weaker than what Bruce Fairbairn would offer on the next one. Not that it ruins said songs in any way, but mr Fairbairn was a true master. The label went all in on the third album: Killer producer in legendary Vancouver studio, and one of the most sought after songwriters of the 80s. You don't see that kind of commitment from labels these days: Artists get one album, if they're lucky.

I like the duet he did with Jennifer Nettles for Habitat for Humanity a number of years ago.

He is so handsome. Please keep reacting to more. They are one of my favorite bands of all time. You should also watch one of the many interviews he has done. Him and his wife are such giving people.

Aside from being great musicians, their songwriting skills were off the chart. Every song told a story that if you were growing up in the eighties you could relate to.

Bon Jovi continues to be so underrated despite all he has done. but he has been one of my favs since i was a kid back in the 80s jamming out to slippery when wet.

I grew up thinking the same about rock. I thought it was just a bunch of screaming & distorted guitar sounds. In the hood it was hip hop, r&b, pop & gospel mostly. The older I got, the more my music pallet extended beyond that because I stopped caring about what some of my friends thought. This was the first Bon Jovi song I'd ever heard at the age of maybe 9. I loved it at first listen! That opened my eyes more to the world of rock. I'm just a music head though. People are surprised when they find out how wide my music tastes go. I can find songs I love in almost any genre. Just depends on my mood. Could be rock one minute, hip hop, some country, gospel or orchestral the next, etc etc. Still listen to this now in my early 40's. Bon Jovi is dope!

If you like this song you should check out the music video for Bon Jovi song Always. Another great song and video of his that sadly all too often gets forgot about but it's a really good one. They used to play that constantly on MTV back in the day when that song came out. He was at the height of his fame back then.

“Give everything a listen” I love that and it’s so true. You’ll appreciate so much more of music when you do

Rockers wrote the best love song and breakup songs. Could you react to KISS, I still love you, MTV unplugged 1995. Not many reactors have done it . Paul Stanley wrote after learning on the news his girlfriend at that time was getting married to an actor. A very heartfelt performance.

I have two tattoos. One symbolizes my late husband, and the other symbolizes Jon Bon Jovi. That tells how I feel about him. I once commented he was the President of the PDC,

Bon Jovi is the band most credited with bringing a female audience into the Rock genre. Other bands before them leaned into the "loud, angry, tough guy" trope and esthetic, but those blue collar pretty boys from New Jersey brought in women in DROVES. And yes, wherever they went, panties evaporated.

The best and hottest musician of all times but the best part of Jon is that he is a kind, sweet, and generous human being. I have had the pleasure of spending time with him on several occasions and saw that side of him. This is my favorite all time Bon Jovi song

He met his wife in high school together. Basically after she graduated, married, and married to this day.😮 He wrote this song about her, about how much he missed her when he was on the road and up on the stage.

His mistress is the music tour. The job. That keeps him away from his love of his life.

Power ballads were absolutely beautiful and Bon Jovi and Steve Perry knew how to sing them with such passion,They told us a story about their lives and relationships,Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora had such a smooth harmony,Plus easy on the eyes,We had the best music and artists of all times,Sadly I don’t feel the way they made me feel about music anymore unless I listen to the music they gave us so long ago but like yesterday to.

That’s because Bon Jovi was a phenomenon, a revolutionary kind of music 🎶

People have said some really cruel things about Jon Bon Jovi's vocals in recent years. He actually had one of his vocal cords atrophy and had to have a major surgery in 2022 to reconstruct it. In this video he was at his best. Bon Jovi has recently released a new single called Legendary. For comparison it might be fun for you to give it a listen. As a long-time fan, I am hopeful that the surgery was successful and he can continue to do what he loves to do. ❤

I'll never forget. I only saw Bon Jovi in concert, once, at Wings Stadium in Kalamazoo MI. It was Jon's birthday. They broke into this song and 19,000 people sang the entire first verse, word for word, with Jon. Never appreciated this song as much until I heard it live. In 1989 Warrant also did a song with this title but the lyrics were far different and not nearly sang as well. With all this said, however, I feel Always is a better tune.

Man he is fine!! Always was and really still is! It is not just his looks it is his music and his devilish grin!

Jon and Richie harmonize like Barbra and Celine… Legends all.

Prime Bon Jovi is a powerhouse vocally to the detriment of his long term voice. Every album was at the peak of his current range in really REALLY hard keys to sing in. Was no way he was going to sustain that vocal integrity. But damn was it amazing.

This is now one of my favorite Bon Jovi reactions of all time! Jon wrote this song 🎶 about his wife, she was his high school sweetheart and they’ve been married all these decades! Please do another reaction from this same footage from this intimate show there is more of it! Please react to Keep The Faith from this show, it’s another great live song!

Yup.Rock was a new freedom that the establishment had a difficult accepting. Thanks for opening your mind. You nailed it.

Jon Bon Jovi literally was a rock star. A hair band front man who managed to get a pass from dudes as well as be a hard rock pop god to the ladies so he was cool with everybody. And literally his side hustle was being a movie star for a ten year run between touring and recording at his day job, after dark. Jovi was The Goat. Check out Living In Sin by Bon Jovi. It's around the same time period as this when he was at crossroads in his life both personally and professionally and just turned thirty. This is when he took a huge leap lyrically and became a legitimate song writer with really poetic soulful passages that encapsulate a feeling, a moment, a very specific internal thing that somehow also speaks to a universal truth we all intuitively understand and get on a deeper instinctual level while his music makes the experience paradoxically feel intimate and like a special injoke or memory just between you two. I think a huge part of his relatability and maturity as an artist and man was he always stayed tired and true to his roots and remained a Jersey Boy throughout. He knows the terrain. He played a supporting part in an Ed Burns film from 1998 called No Looking Back and he is so real and authentic as the down and outer blue collar Jersey guy knowing troubles a coming and he's a good guy who the town severely under estimate the bad boy that lurks just below the surface and what he's capable of if pushed. He's the most reviewing thing in the movie. You can't take your eyes off him. He's just a naturally charismatic natural born matinee idol who just happens to be a bona fide legit good actor whose got the chops and delivers the goods. Then you remember, oh yeah, this is his spare time hobby, being an unmitigated born movie star when he finds free time to do it not busy owning it as one of the top 3 80s rock gods who never really burned out or faded away. He seemed to just quietly switch musical genres and become a country singer. Because, of course he just up and does it because, yeah, he's Jon Bon MFing Jovi. So that's a thing too Living In Sin.

There’s so much different music. It’s crazy. As Paul Stanley said God gave us rock ‘n’ roll music.
