Bon Jovi plays Romeo and Juliet

[goldenheart96]

Bon Jovi, one good song. Blaze of glory. Thats it for me.

That's a Jon Bon Jovi song. He did the Blaze Of Glory OST alone. And got nominated for an oscar BTW. MK never was.

Well I never knew that. It turns out that Bon Jovi have never done a good song then. 

Wow, how do you know. Have you listened to them all??


I'm just trying to put things into consideration here. Pity so very few people are willing to discuss objectively.

well, that's the essence of music, isn't it, it is anything but objective. It's all about feelings and what it does to you.

and can somebody tell me the difference between bon jovi and bon jovi? Blaze of glory is not a bon jovi song but a bon jovi song? 

[Love Expresso]

Oh, it's the same as with Dire Straits and Paul SimMark Knopfler...
Stadium rock - Band, film score - solo

sort of...

Put differently, Jon Bon Jovi is the guy, Bon Jovi only (named after him obviously) is his band. Plenty complicated considering that you sometimes only use surnames for artists. Not recommended here

I'm just dicking around. Dont get offended by me. But since you ask. I dont know all there songs, but I do know there genre and style and its not my cup of tea. Thats the same reason I dont like alot of artists. It would be very hard if you had to listen every song an artist has done before you are allowed to form an opinion.

LOL, exactly 

[Jules]

Jon Bongiovi, actually

  Right, his dad is Italian.

Jon Bon Jovi has released two solo albums by the way, the Blaze Of Glory OST and Destination Anywhere. They are both worth having a listen.
And as for the Blaze Of Glory OST, there are some nice guest appearances by Little Richard, Jeff Beck and Elton John.

Richie Sambora's Stranger In This Town is also a very good blues album. The song "Mr Bluesman" features Eric Clapton.

I don't really have anything against Bon Jovi in the same way that I do against, say, Phil Collins or Michael Buble. I think Living on a prayer, Blaze of Glory and Keep the faith are good singles.

But overall they're just a fluff pop-rock band, no depth to them and certainly not worthy of three pages of discussion on AMIT.

As for not being nominated for an Oscar, previous winners include Three Six Mafia, Barbara Striesand and... Phil Collins. So MK is in good company IMO.

Well the thread title indicates it's MK related, if you like it or not, so...
Also, does that mean only intellectually challenging musicians are worth three pages on AMIT? 

[Rollergirl]

I think the thread on Phil Collins was much longer than 3 pages! 

[Banjo99uk]

Start one on Celine Dion and I'll get it up to 10 pages on my own.
