Jon you are the most open minded artist I have seen in forever. I was there for your successful start and I continue to enjoy the music you put your heart and soul into. Keep up the good work.
Is there any other topnotching, high grossing, legendary band that was categorized under country, soft rock, pop rock, heavy rock, classic rock, acoustic rock band like Bon Jovi?
Who stand for the restless? And the lonely?, For the desperate?, and the hungry? Down for the count I'm hearing you now For the faithful, the believer For the faceless and the teacher Stand up and be proud What about now? - my favorite verses :)
What About Now? Now, I'm listening to this song for the ONE MILLIONTH TIME BECAUSE BON JOVI ARE MY GODS! Thank you guys, for inspiring many like me to write music and share our songs with the world! You are great men, great role models and talented musicians! Hope to see you back Richie, much love
Bon Jovi brings songs that are in the positive recessess of our memories; any words he has to add to his great songs will add wisdom from the others in my heart's collection. Bring on the present and future Bon Jovi, your fans are still here. Kitty Kelso
What I like in Bon Jovi, that every song almost tells those stories, thoughts and feelings that I had, think or feel... these songs can make me cry. This is THE BEST BAND OF ALL TIMES! (:
Wtf is wrong with these generations I'm 14 and i listen to Bon Jovi,Queen,Beatles,Deep Purple, Metallica,Guns 'n' Roses etc. this should be No.1 Everywhere
I am 10 and still listen to like Bon Jovi and others. My parents listen to some of this stuff and then i just come in like LETS PARTY and then dance a little. I cant live without the past :D

Some musical is classic Bon Jovi , Elvis , Whitney , gun and roses, Metallica and queen just to mention a few that’s why they carry through generations never to be forgotten ❤
IDK how this album hasn't sold MORE. It's much better than the last 2 albums they put out. Less focused on EXPERIMENTING with country and just doing them the best they can. This song is very good.
Pra quem gosta de uma banda de rock melódico, músicos competentes, um vocalista carismático e com uma postura de palco incrível, letras inteligentes, na minha humilde opinião, essa é a melhor!!!
I've NEVER come across a song they do that I've not fallen in love with!! :) His music has made good times in my life greater & gotten me through extremely hard challenges without failure!! THANKS JBJ & BAND!! You're truly everything a good, decent, kind & talented man that any music student should take a long hard look at!! If anyone could be called PERFECTION-my money's on you!! And thank you to your families for sharing you all with us!! :)
I need my Jon Bon Jovi to write songs like this again. Optimism, in the fight, giving, loving and encouraging. Never give up. However beautiful your last album 2020 was as you witnessed the struggle, I friking need a what about now song.
This man is the General. Because he was blessed with the talent and the strength, he can speak for those of us who don’t have that platform. We are the soldiers. We can’t do what he does but we can fight the good fight in our own communities. Now, more than ever, we need to stand up and help those who need help. If we don’t, who will?
I've been following them since they started and I can tell you right now they have no bigger fan than me!! We all are close in age and my first concert was on my 16th birthday in Binghamton, N.Y. the year was 1987. Best birthday present ever from my mom!!!
I think the last great Bon Jovi album was These Days, after that, Bon Jovi went into a different direction, one that does not fully satisfy me. But what I do appreciate is the fact that, even though they haven't blown me away with anything for a long while, the music always feels really accomplished, and genuine. Also, I enjoyed Burning Bridges A LOT more than expected, so I am eagerly awaiting the new album next year! Great band, and one I will never give up on!
+Michael Smith I like their old music and some of the current music. Like with any artist there is some songs that you just love and some that you don't really care for.
Old school video.... the song played over a video clip montage... usually boring.. But with Bon Jovi... there's something magic about it Great song... great video... GREAT GROUP !!
have a good health still,,, john bon jovi...your still great..since i heared your music when i was a little girl...since then im in age of 30s now...still your songs gettin` inspired to the society...have a bless day.
Who stand for the restless? And the lonely?, For the desperate?, and the hungry? Down for the count I'm hearing you now For the faithful, the believer For the faceless and the teacher Stand up and be proud What about now?
Bonjovi's songs are my life's soundtracts! Meaningful lyrics,positive themes!
I don't understand why this music don't have the respect and the known that he deserves. It's just amazing
What About Now"
You wanna start a fire

Don't be ashamed in need
'Cause tonight we're alive
Who'll stand for the restless and the lonely?

Bruce Springsteen- the guy that Jon's been ripping off since forever...
After all these years he's still as hot as ever js.
Jon you are the most open minded artist I have seen in forever. I was there for your successful start and I continue to enjoy the music you put your heart and soul into. Keep up the good work.

I have been listening since I was three, I may be only 14 now, but his music has been apart of my life for aa while
+GORESKING many other good musician out there, but don't know why JBJ's always very emotional for me, especially since he left glam rock
GORESKING same there bud, my father always played his song
"Hello from the other side" #1PalendromeNation
Bon Jovi. 1983-present. Always epic, always will be!
Bon Jovi + GNR + Queen + Aerosmith= Perfección.
I think it's safe to say that Jon Bon Jovi is like wine. He gets better, and better looking with age.
ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY & AMEN!! :)
agreed
wrong xD
Thiago Drovin jealous much?
You 're wrong. I believe he was a better singer before. His voice is not the same as it's used to be in the 80's or 90's. Still he's a great singer.
the best man ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the best band ! the best JOHN !!! the best voice and the best songs !
Bon Jovi brings songs that are in the positive recessess of our memories; any words he has to add to his great songs will add wisdom from the others in my heart's collection. Bring on the present and future Bon Jovi, your fans are still here. Kitty Kelso
LEGEND❤
What I like in Bon Jovi, that every song almost tells those stories, thoughts and feelings that I had, think or feel... these songs can make me cry. This is THE BEST BAND OF ALL TIMES! (:
Me too!
I LOVE U JON. REALLY LOVE U SO MUCH 😭❤❤❤❤❤
I've seen Bon jovi live many times they still rock
qualidade e muito taboo contra.. Jon vc é de Jesus, suas letras, melodias...fui em 4 shows... ainda muito fera com 56 anos....muito bom!
Bon jovi is awesome I love his music
Forever Bon Jovi
Wtf is wrong with these generations I'm 14 and i listen to Bon Jovi,Queen,Beatles,Deep Purple, Metallica,Guns 'n' Roses etc. this should be No.1 Everywhere
Yes. He is one of the best world musician.
I'm 44. But good music is never die. Bon jovi is too.
Same, I'm 13 and I listen to the same bands
@proixxy then you are awesom
I am 10 and still listen to like Bon Jovi and others. My parents listen to some of this stuff and then i just come in like LETS PARTY and then dance a little. I cant live without the past :D
***** Yep xD!
Can't believe it's been 9 yrs , this is real music 💕
I am 18 and I listen to 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s and music nowadays.
And I prefer old music.
My friends call this strange.
I call it good taste. :P
Nice , I’m amaze . I thought it’s only me .
feel the same🤘
I guarantee that you aren't strange. You feel old music is better than music nowadays. It's GREAT!!!!!!
23 grew up listen to older music today music mostly dont have taste
If those friends call it strange then they aren't friends.
Por que te amo tantoooooo Jon!!!!! eres lo mejor de este mundo..... amo tus canciones, amo lo que provocas en todos nosotros BONJOVEROS forever
Por siempre Bon joveros
Lo mejor nunca pasa de moda!
His singing its as beautiful as good times sweet moments history. ❤
Lyrics
You wanna start a fire?
It only takes a spark
You gotta get behind the wheel
If you ever gonna drive that car
If you wanna take a bite
You'd better have the teeth
If you're wanna take that step
Then get up off of your knees
'Cause tonight, we're alive
Who'll stand for the restless
And the lonley
For the despreate
And the hungry?
Down for the count
I'm hearing you now
For the faithful, the believer
For the faceless and the teacher
Stand up and be proud
What about now?
You wanna start a fight?
You gotta take a swing
You gotta get your hands in the dirt
To see what the harvest will bring
You wanna raise your voice?
Don't be scared to breathe
Don't be afraid to hurt
Don't be ashamed to need
'Cause tonight, we're alive
Who'll stand for the restless
And the lonley
For the despreate
And the hungry?
Down for the count
I'm hearing you now
For the faithful, the believer
For the faceless and the teacher
Stand up and be proud
What about now?
Believe for that reason
That drift through the seasons
'Til dreams are just bare, dark, and grey
And all of your plans
That slip right through your hands
Are just things that you take to your grave
Tonight, we're alive
Who'll stand for the restless
The lonley
For the despreate
And the hungry?
Down for the count
I'm hearing you now
For the faithful, the believer
For the faceless and the teacher
Stand up and be proud
What about now?
What about now?
What about now?
What about now?
Thank you, Rajan👍🏻

+Michael Smith spot on dude !!
+Michael Smith I like their old music and some of the current music. Like with any artist there is some songs that you just love and some that you don't really care for.
Their new album is set in March 2016
+Michael Smith its probably because you really enjoyed these days but they have so many more songs
shiit you aint the only one bruh he is the shit but seems more on the lines of country...
I can't wait!!!
感動しました！
Bon Jovi simplemente los mejores
