Richie Sambora - Ballad Of Youth

[fadeingod]

Missed this one, what a track!!!!!!

[TheXPrisoner]

Richie was stuck in between corporate business and a band with a very talented singer. Sucked yet uncredited he should have been a vocalist in a different band. Without taking his credit, i think Bon Jovi would have been just fine without him.

[sebaswildboy]

masterpiec

[wouldntyoulike2know]

Richie's hair is perfect in this video *_*

[ace51515]

bon jovi was a hinderance to his career he didnt need them

[JuttaOlli]

@ace51515 really now ...he might disagree ; ) and if he'd agree he would have left Bon Jovi ...but as far as I have understood his best friends are in the band and he is integral part of it ... he hates it when people critisizes he buddies ...that's a quote ; )

[ace51515]

@JuttaOlli that album he did is better than everything the band did in there career hes also far better vocally ... now hes really gonna hate me :(

[NoShyGirlHere]

i agree with you darlin' people round here suck..bunch of Vampires..know i have fond memories just not the kind they think..me my mine are Good Memories..People I LOVE

[millybonjovi]

Richie!!!!!!!!!! el mejor del mundo! esperando con ansias el nuevo álbum 2012

[TheRockgirl995]

this is sooo gooooooooooooood :))))))))))))) love you ♥ :)

[kittysano1]

damn....... just........ damn ♥♥♥♥♥

[tadracket]

If you like this, check out the self titled single for this album, "Stranger in this Town". I was jamming this shit when my friends were rolling over to P-Jam and Nirvana. Sambora is a top notch singer, songwriter and overall musician who was unfortunately out shined by Jon Bon Jovi. It is no wonder the band Bon Jovi is such a huge success. They had no other option give the talent.

[JiubTheSaint]

0:53 rocks lol!!! =)))

[motleylee1]

I love Jon but Richie is a amazing singer and hott and funny

[guitardipu]

[sCoryvo]

richie is a better musician, he plays guitar well, he's an amazing singer (i never heard slash sing parts solo), and richie writes beautifull songs.

[sCoryvo]

@sCoryvo correction richie is one of the best guitarists :)

[kmariann21]

richie <3

[kajzec]

what the fuck has Slash to do with this song? bunch of idiots.

[frenchvenus31265]

Richie's definitely better than Slash. Better guitar player and much better looking!

[Fred6498]

How scaly is this solo !! Never a still note either, vibrato everywhere !! Lovely stuff

[Madseeen1]

I LOVE RICHIE!! And i will say he is one of the best guitar players in the world - BETTER THAN SLASH!!

[Horselover32993]

Slash is the better guitar player, Richie is the better looking one.

[K1K1BJ]

I CANT IMAGINE BON JOVI WITHOUT RICHIE

HE IS THE KING

[K1K1BJ]

OMG I WISH TO WAS RICHIE'S GIRLFRIEND

[K1K1BJ]

@K1K1BJ LOVE BON JOVI <3 <3 <3

[perryfan49]

Richie's best ballad! Yeaahhh...

[stevedabestperiod]

Sambora's music is actually better than Bon Jovi if that makes any sense. Bon Jovi sucks!!!

[GoodGuitarSolos]

@stevedabestperiod Bon Jovi have great songs too, check out "Dry County", "Keep the Faith" and "Save a Prayer".

[TheDelilah71]

I almost die <3<3 !!!

[msscitizen]

I listened to this song many years ago on a Keep the Faith album of Bon jovi! ... It's been around 2 years that I've searched to listen to this song 1 more time.. but couldn't find the album include this song on the web (even I didn't know the song title, or anything else) ... but just now all of a sudden I found it ... n I'll rest in peace tonight

[TheDelilah71]

<3

[uffaize]

@deedy95:

[magsmartinmacleod]

I used to watch this video every morning before goin to school nearly 20 years ago

[JohnnyHARDROCK]

what a beautiful riff ♥♥♥....Rich is underrated musician

[LidijaJovanovskaMJ]

I FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS MAN!

[ZX2ManDave]

Jon Bon Who?

[deedy95]

thumbs up if u think that Richie is BETTER THAN Slash and sadly underrated than him

[sharingan56789]

@deedy95 dude you can´t compare him with slash. it´s like night and day

[deedy95]

@deedy95 How many people can Write timeless hits ,Sing like that,Play the Guitar like a God (he is actually)

and Perform Flawless Live ???ONLY RICHIE SAMBORA Why the fuck is he that underrated ?((

[aducimeH]

@deedy95 I wouldn't say better but as good as, but that was 20 years ago, guess he drank most of it away.

[slashangus123]

@deedy95 and also slah cant even sing not to mention sing as good as richie sambora

[deedy95]

@slashangus123 exactly

[adm924s]

I mean, what about the solo...holy shit, how scaly is that...One of the class things about the Sambora is listen when he holds notes-he never just holds them, it's always vibrato. Or he chucks in loads of pinch harmonics. There were comments that Phil X was any sort of a replacement. No insult intended but he's up against a legend here, they should have cancelled the gigs 'till Richie was back, I'd have asked for a refund being a "Bon Jovi" fan.

[Krrrimmi]

RICHIE MADE THIS SOLO ALBUM WHILE JON BON JOVI WAS RECORDING "BLAZE OF GLORY". \m/

[carly829]

It was so sad when Bon Jovi broke up for awhile, but if they hadn't, a fantastic song like this never would've been made. Love you Richie!

[Brain245able]

my favorite part

"Temptation makes us fall from grace

But the angels were sinners

And the sinners saints

Forgive yourself cause were all the same

Everybody rides on the karma train"

2:34-2:50

[ledford1100]

[BelialBKK]

[lolliepop6061]

[24SweetThing]

Richie Sambora is a very sexy man inside and out. Extremely underrated. He can play the shit out of a guitar.My thoughts and prayers are with you. Keep the faith. Love ya Richie

[mannaggiatutti]

@Yirass Check out Dann Huff ex-lead singer and lead -guitarist from giant.

[jeannieh01]

I didn't have any clue that Richie sang but it was pretty kool ... I really enjoyed his music..........& his looks he is Hot

[ckelley63]

What a great song!!! Richie should have gotten a grammy for this one. This song alone should leave no doubt in any one's mind has to the talent of this man. The arrangment and composition is outstanding!!!!

[tiedyelyndab]

omg... so dam sexy!!!



[Sikki4Nikki]

YUMMY!!! hes sooo sexyyy

[mikomiko800]

人生七転び八起き…なんて生意気ですが、リッチー。頑張って克服­してください。絶対に負けないで。みんなリッチーを待ってます。

Get well soon, Richie, I believe in you！

[magyarikristof]

@mikomiko800 What do you mean get well?????:O

what happened?

[Fritha71]

@magyarikristof Richie's working on his alcoholism/(substance abuse?) atm, trying to get back in shape in rehab somewhere in California. Lots of prayers going his way that he will make it and join Bon Jovi for the European leg of their current tour in June...

[mikomiko800]

@magyarikristof Richie is in the rehabilitation institution now.

He overcomes alcohol poisoning by all means.

I hope that he gets well and comes back to the band.

I love Richie :-D

[polishesbyme]

you rock my mum thinks your sexy and im 10

[ameiko76]

I listen and it makes me hope and dream and laugh and cry....

..... and in fear and terror i claw to escape the time that encages my life....... and then....

and then.....

i whisper the words to this song in hopes it makes me immune.

oh how can we ever forget...?

[ckelley63]

@ameiko76 Maybe you should seek some counseling, WHEW!!!!!!!!

[Carrjam94]

I love Richie's voice, he is so talented

[BX02]

If he woudl have had better video producers maybe he would've takenoff better as a solo singer..but his videos even for those times are real cliche and typical..no depth or style..

[TheAndrewnaoum]

@BX02 poeple who listen this music don count on video ,

[adicts89]

@BX02 i disagree. this video is epic.

[CRexTasy]

This, my friends, should be an unequivocal classic!

[ThePhantomsSuperGirl]

Hmmmm this is a pick me up song for sure

but...

*sigh* his hair is prettier than mine...

[ThePhantomsSuperGirl]

Hmmmm this is a pick me up song for sure

[MissUranija]

@MrMikekelly2 Tom Keifer, Satchel... well there aren't much but also not so few :)

[cierralite]

Richie's first solo album is so awesome! I love every song. His second one is not nearly as good. He has such an awesome voice.

[cierralite]

Richie's first solo album is so awesome! I love every song. His second one is not nearly as good. He has such an awesome voice.

[ThePhantomsSuperGirl]

@cierralite i agree, theres only a few on undiscovered soul that are really good... stranger in this town was all good

[coolhellu]

OMG he has such a good voice!

[guizz89]

i used to hear this song when i was 13 and i loved it...

[wwawi]

Wow.. Such a hot man. He's a guitar GOD !! But I can't say that he's better then Jon. They both are so amazing.. Them voices are increatible good. But you just can't say that this one is better then other. They are too deffrent. I hate then people say "Teem Richie" or "Teem Jon". It's really stupid
