Bon Jovi

Updated: Sep 1, 2019

Not sure if you know but I am a huge fan of Bon Jovi. I can honestly say this band is a legend and their songs are timeless. Is there anyone who doesn't know 'Livin' on a prayer'?? I don't think so! Jon is everything I admire in a frontman - charismatic, fun, with great stage presence, magnetic personality, with superb vocals, even more so - hardworking, tenacious, determined, relentless in his drive to success - the list goes on. I look up to Jon in every aspect as myself I am a singer and on my music journey I try to be the best I can be.


I can say that my adventure with BJ started only a few years ago - as a teenager I was more into dance music and pop and knew only 'Always'. Later on, I don't remember how come, but in college I borrowed a tape of BJ from my friend and really loved their songs. But it wasn't until YouTube had been invented, which opened the door to music and made it more accessible, that I discovered more of BJ songs. As soon as I saw Jon's live performances and Richie's solos, I was hooked. I kept watching their YT videos non-stop, one by one and couldn't stop. Each performance would give me even bigger goosebumps. They became my heroes, full stop!


Don't know what it is but Bon Jovi's song catch my heart strongly and take me to another world. That is how I felt when I went to their long-awaited concert in Wembley Stadium yesterday i.e. 21.6.1019. I may truly say that I experienced total magic. Was I in a 'Blaze of Glory' or something? Definitely some sort of blaze. I haven't had so much fun for years (digression: London clubs suck in my opinion...). I simply didn't care that I jumped like crazy all the way from the start and even more by the end of the concert. This is what effect their music has on me, what can I do, haha. It was the best night out ever, which left my throat a little bit sore:) But it was soo worth it! If I could, I would follow them everywhere! My idol: Bon Jovi :)


Thank you to Jon, Tico, David, Phil, Hugh (and Richie who left but still is responsible for creation of many awesome solos) for an unforgettable experience!
