jon bon jovi, and bettye lavette... holy crap. in this video, it doesnt matter if you like or hate obama, this is two legends at their best, making amazing music
@sfadropout87 Well, you're posting it to everyone when you post it here, so don't be rude when I'm curious, not that it's really that big of a deal...
you can take the boy from sayreville but no matter what you do, you cant the sayreville from the boy.....jon bongiovi take my hat off to you AGAIN....navesink river roads finest..
The whole thing is nothing but a stage event I dont think Ive ever seen a big concert being put on before a american president! The whole thing the lyrics in that tune is nothing but to fool americans into believing Obama is nothing like P Bush I advise you go do your homework and study Alex Jones And David Icke and listen towhat they have to say on the matter!
do you not realize that a black man being elected as President of the U.S.A is a big deal? People are excited and hope has been restored. I'm sorry that your ignorance won't allow you to realize this.
But..Obama is nothing like Bush.
And again..Obama's share the wealth program is exactly like that of Huey P. Long's...and it worked.. People didn't like it..but it worked even though it was never completely in motion...
You should do your homework. You uneducated idiot.
Holy cow.... mad cow... hehehe... damn... Legend is always a legend theres no doubt about it... Jon Bon Jovi Still kicking butts.... you rock since I started to listen and love the music of yours men.... Long Live Bon Jovi oooooorrahhhhhhhhhhhhh
oh my man look bon jovi he is getting older and getting better and that lady is good coz this is the first time hearing her and bon jovi i listen all the time
Her name is Bettye LaVette. She is superb..and of course so is Jon. To me, this was the best song ever! Just love it! I think they should record this song together! What a hit it would be! Love ya Jon! And Also Bettye!
wow!! bon jovi is smooth singer and wicked voice....but i noticed no one coment on that woman singing she is awsome to!! but who is she lol i dont think i heard of her befor lots of SOUL in her anyways wow they were both awsome
How good was that! these two should be labelled as "Duet of the Century". I have never heard of Bettye LaVette, what a lady. To share the stage with my favorite singer Bon Jovi is just one hell of a bonus. He is so gorgeous & sexy. Thank you for posting these clips.
I have a new favorite singer, and her name is Beatty Lavette! I cried during her entire performance, and now I cannot get enough of her. She is simply out of this world!
This is the best I've heard Jon's voice live for a while!! Can't wait till the next album!! He well should have played a bigger part in this - he's the King of Rock 'n' ROll. I hate the critics, the amount of times I've read about all the big stars playing and some never mentioned Jon who is one of the biggest.
the little girl sleeping behind obama kills me lol

Jon Bon Jovi is a true rock musician, nothing compared to Axl Rose.
Bon Jovi can actaully sing very good live!
Axl can't, maybe thats the reason why Guns N' Roses only had one world tour?
