The best of the best

I've had a busy weekend. However, it's finally over and tonight I was able to sit and watch the 52nd annual Grammys which aired live. It was a truly interactive show this year as fans were able to vote on one of the songs that  Bon Jovi would play during their Grammy performance.  


For the first time ever, Bon Jovi played the Grammy stage and it was quite a performance!!  The song that their fans selected was their biggest hit ever, 'Livin' on a Prayer' which they rocked out with back up help from Sugarland's Jennifer Nettles. I must confess to singing and tapping right along with them. LOL  


Here's a more recent video clip from Bon Jovi's show live in Honolulu (Blaisdell Arena) at the kick off of The Circle Tour. Enjoy!


Livin' On A Prayer lyrics
Songwriters:  Bonjovi, Jon; Sambora, Richard; Child, Desmond;
Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike, he's down on his luck
It's tough, so tough

Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man, she brings home her pay
For love, mmm, for love

She says we've got to hold on to what we've got
It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not
We got each other and that's a lot
For love we'll give it a shot!

Oh, we're half way there
Oh oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it I swear
Oh oh, livin' on a prayer

Tommy's got his six string in hock
Now he's holding in what he used to make it talk
So tough, mmm, it's tough

Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night, Tommy whispers
"Baby it's okay, someday"

We gotta hold on to what we've got
It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not
We got each other and that's a lot
For love we'll give it a shot!

Oh, we're half way there
Oh oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it I swear
Oh oh, livin' on a prayer
Livin' on a prayer!

We gotta hold on ready or not
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got

Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer

Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer

Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer

I didn't watch the Grammy's but Bon Jovi is one of my fave bands from the 80's, and "Livin' On A Prayer" is definitely one of the their best tunes.

Happy February, Enid! :o)

Love and hugs,

Diane
