Rock N Roll Birthdays

[Stars]

Soda, I also love "Wake Me Up When September Ends"-it's such a lovely, moving song. I remember when the "American Idiot" album came out, my sister got it just for that song, she loved it so much!

[Annabel]

That's a great video and a fab song. When I played it my 11 year old DD began to sing it. Evidently she loves it too. :thumbsup:

My favorite Bon Jovi song...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRvCvsRp5ho

[TimothyBFan]

That's one of my faves also PM. I could post all of the 80s Bon Jovi videos and say they are some of my faves.

A little personal tidbit regarding Jon Bon Jovi. In the mid 80's, in my apartment, there were several rock posters all over it. But taking up the whole bathroom door, from the bedroom side, was a LIFESIZE Jon Bon Jovi, sweaty, hair all over the place, sexy :drool:..... As soon as now hubby moved in, it had to come down. He didn't quite understand. :shrug: I rolled it and all the others up and put them in a tube but never got rid of them. About 3 years ago, found them again. Put them on ebay and made some pretty good money from them. It was hard to part with that one in particular tho.

[Brooke]

Willie, cool story! I just can't understand your hubby! :wink: lol

Happy Birthday to Jon and Roger! :birthday:

[tequila girl]

I remember Circus Boy....that was in the days we didn't have any TV programmes of our own and we imported all of yours! :hilarious:

[Brooke]

Just had to go lookin' for my fave Bon Jovi song:

Blaze of Glory

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfmYCM4CS8o

Check out his outfit! :drool:

He looks really young there. And where is the rest of the band, namely Richie? They should be in it too, right?

[Freypower]

I seem to remember that Blaze Of Glory was a solo song released on a soundtrack, so technically it is not 'Bon Jovi'. It's 'Jon Bon Jovi'. Big difference, eh?!:roll:

[TimothyBFan]

Yup-Blaze Of Glory was from the Young Guns soundtrack and was just Jon.

[sodascouts]

I have that soundtrack and it's great! Here's another song I really like off of it (note: this following is a fanvid, so don't be confused by appearances by the other members of Bon Jovi):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQ56h4ql8Dk

We were just talking about this movie in another thread. Shoot, Kiefer Sutherland looks good! And he's aged well too...

Plus - catch Jon Bon Jovi's split-second cameo - if you can recognize him!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99n5o6P1_Yo

And Brooke - I agree - Jon is delicious in that video! I love the lyric from "Blaze of Glory" that goes "I never drew first, but I drew first blood." So tough!

[Troubadour]

I love Young Guns! And Kiefer Sutherland. :heart:

[Stars]

Kiefer is aging well-I loved him in "24"!:smile:

[TimothyBFan]

And Emilio Estevez and Lou Diamond Phillips.....:inlove: Yum!!!

[TimothyBFan]

I almost forgot this one!! Geesh....

Nancy Wilson turns 57 today.

She is freakin' AWESOME at the beginning of this video!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5PKULglde8

[WalshFan88]

I love Nancy Wilson. My favorite female guitar player! Heart is a great band. They are going to be on tour this summer with Def Leppard. I'd love to go to Chicago and see them.

[Brooke]

Happy Birthday to Nancy! You rock! :thumbsup:

I'd love to see them, too. Maybe in St. Louis this summer. :fingerscrossed:

[Prettymaid]

Happy belated birthday to Eddie Money!

I saw him in 1996 and he had a little boy (his son?) onstage doing the Be my little baby parts of this song. It was so cute!

Still his greatest song:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7wwZVB4yMI&feature=related

[WalshFan88]

Wow that's a lot of Birthdays!!!!

Happy Birthday to all of the above! :D

[Prettymaid]

Happy birthday to all! That's quite a list of talent!

I'd like to give a special shout out to Steven Tyler who, because he took this gig on American Idol, has gained a new respect from people who never thought they liked him before, or thought he wasn't intellegent. Are his comments to the contestants the best I've ever heard? Not by a long shot. But he brings that rock star quality to the show just by sitting in that judges chair every week saying, "That was beautiful!"

You're beautiful Steven! Rock on!

[Brooke]

Agreed, Pm. That's beautiful! lol

And Happy Birthday Steven! We love ya! :birthday:

[WalshFan88]

I prefer Clapton's playing and guitar tone when he was playing Gibson Les Pauls, SGs, and ES-335s back in the day instead of Fender Stratocasters.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvI0P6o_H8k

Happy Birthday!

[MikeA]

If I haven't crossed my wires up horribly, I do think I recall that "Crossroads" was one of if not the first song that Clapton graced with vocals. Like a lot of guitarists, he didn't have the confidence to sing!

He was in good company though. Hendrix and Walsh were two more who felt that way.

[sodascouts]

I've always found this Clapton song moving:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7g2IlaDLVLo

And we can't forget this one:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUSzL2leaFM

[Prettymaid]

And after you've shed a few tears over those you can rock out to this!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Zv4XomHFM4

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERIC!

[Freypower]

Love you Eric. I am particularly fond of this version of the unplugged version of Layla:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQVvF0AeRLI

Then I found this. Phil Collins still on drums, Jools Holland on piano. If this were a DVD it would be beyond AWESOME.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6tZn8iUkIA&feature=related

[MikeA]

LOVE the two unplugged versions of "Wonderful Tonight" and "Layla". But then, I like a LOT of what Eric does with Blues too.

[AzEaglesFan]

SOMEDAY, I may learn how to post videos until then "Good Job" everyone. Love the videos.

[Koala]

Happy Birthday Eric Clapton!

Tommy Lee of Motley Crue turns 49 today.

This is so freakin' awesome!!! Warning: MAY CONTAIN STRONG LANGUAGE--if this bothers you, turn it down but still watch as he plays drums on a roller coaster track.

A big happy birthday from me to Jackson Browne, who will turn 63 on October 9. I liked him a lot back in the day - LOVE him now!

Where do I begin? Here's a video I made of one of, if not my favorite JB song. I love how it swells up at the end to the magnifiscent crescendo.
