Bon Jovi- Edge Of A Broken Heart (Studio Demo)

[Padarack1]

I think the final version is a half-step higher, than this, actually.

[zloychechen5150]

and also the back vocals in the chorus....)

[zloychechen5150]

guys, what are the lyrics in the bridge section? i.e. "when i hold down my hands i'll be reaching for you i gave it all that i've got..." and so on.. i can't work out, i'm a foreigner)

[Dawgzfan86]

@zloychechen5150 "And when I hold out my hands. I'll be reaching for you. I'll give it all that I've got, that's all I can do.  When I'm waiting for love, I'll be waiting for you.

[zloychechen5150]

@Dawgzfan86 nope that's from the final version. it appears to be different here.

[zloychechen5150]

this demo is actually a bit better than the final version, even though it's unfinished. but it feels more alive and moody.

...just love it! <3 nothing else...

and there I stood just like a soldier... ♥

ok folks if you want a copy of this song full version its on the "Disorderlies" soundtrack.

[SimonHolland7]

it was also on the B-Side of the 12" 'Living on a prayer' single in 1986. It was recorded for the 'Slippery When Wet' album and Jon admits he made a big mistake by not releasing the song. A cult favourite with core fans, should play it live!!! One of my favourite BJ songs, if not no. 1!!!

[MrBluesman2]

great song!

[nuttynut88]

they released this song on a single in the uk in the nineties i played over and over so many great bonjovi songs don't make their albums for me the best rock band in the world

[spideylong007]

it's on Always cd single

which i'm lucky to have!!!!

[spideylong007]

not sure why the slippery when wet album cover is shown above though because Always is on Crossroads and Romeo is Bleeding soundtrack, but hey who cares great song!

[Undeadbaby87]

@spideylong007 It was suppose to be 4 Slippery but Jon didnt put it on there as he didnt want Livin' On A Prayer

[lance4titanium]

I second the question...... where did you get it and how can I get a copy??

[oooouuups]

on the edge of the broken heart is one of the best songs ever written ...

[imugly678]

@oooouuups I think this would be like the coolest intro ever.. If I had to design my dream set list for a Jovi song this would be the opening song... the sad thing is they probably have never played this out live :(

[BullRun1861]

Two questions: Where did you find this recording and how can I get my hands on a copy?

[Hishnaak]

i like this version
