I just love the dramatic opening to this! The glam metal single Livin' on a Prayer was a U.S. #1 and peaked at #4 in the UK. It was the second single to be released from the album Slippery When Wet, and was released on 31st October 1986.From
New Jersey in the U.S., Bon Jovi formed in 1983 and have sold 120
million records worldwide. In the 80s, the band had nine top 40 singles
in the UK between 1986 and 1989, from two hit albums, Slippery When Wet and New Jersey.
The
band members are Jon Bon Jovi (vocals and guitar), Richie Sambora
(guitar), Tico Torres (drummer), David Bryan (keyboards) and Hugh
McDonald (bass) who unofficially replaced Alec John Such in 1994.
