Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ on a Prayer” is one of the most recognizable songs in the history of rock. And yet the 1986 hit originally sounded very different. During a conversation with UCR’s Matt Wardlaw, Jon Bon Jovi explained why he didn’t think much of the song initially. “When we were writing it, we did not have the baseline,” the frontman noted. “We were picking on one note on the guitar, so it almost sounded like ‘London Calling.’” READ MORE: Top 100 ’80s Rock Albums While most bands would be happy to have a tune reminiscent of the Clash’s classic track, Bon Jovi didn’t think the song fit his ba...

Richie Sambora has only one regret regarding his exit from Bon Jovi. The guitarist, who abruptly quit the band in 2013 to spend more time with his family, was a recent guest on The Allison Hagendorf Show. When asked what he would change about his departure from Bon Jovi if he could go back in time, Sambora was forthright. “I probably would have left earlier,” the rocker admitted. “I might have left a couple of albums before because, I think Jon [Bon Jovi] was moving into a place where he wanted to not really be a band.” This was not the first time the guitarist sensed Bon Jovi would rather go ...

Bon Jovi‘s “Livin’ on a Prayer” was a multi-platinum international Top 5 smash that topped the American charts for an entire month in 1987. This no doubt came as a surprise to the group’s frontman, who really didn’t like the song when it was first written. “It wasn’t that I didn’t want to record it, but I wasn’t all that impressed on the day that we wrote it,” Jon Bon Jovi tells People magazine. “It was the simple chord progression, the melodies and the lyrics.” Then Hugh McDonald made an uncredited contribution, and “Livin’ on a Prayer” suddenly had new momentum. “The bass line came to life i...

Jon Bon Jovi understands now that he was told a white lie about the recovery time needed following his potentially career-ending vocal surgery. He sought out advice from Shania Twain before going under the knife, since the country star had the same procedure with the same medical team. She wasn’t completely forthcoming about how long it would take to return to the concert trail. “Not only did she reassure me that it would be OK, but I think she also pulled my leg a little bit because she told me I’d be out there a lot sooner than I have been,” Bon Jovi says in his new documentary Thank You, Go...
