Billy, this song is about touring in a band. The steel horse is the tour bus. A loaded 6 string on my back is his guitar

Bon Jovi Blaze of Glory is a good one to react to

You've heard bits of this one simply by virtue of the fact that you draw breath on planet earth. Movies. TV. Commercials. They put some of this in EVERYTHING. If you got the money, they got the time. Make that money Jon! Another good one Billy. Carry on sir.

I'm 17 and I love Bon Jovi! I grew up on 70s and 80s music and feel blessed that I did! Love your reaction!

I STARTED LISTENING TO REACTION VIDEOS CAUSE I WANTED TO SEE WHAT OTHER FOLKS THOUGHT OF MY FAVORITE MUSIC. NOW THEIR FAVORITE MUSIC IS MY NEW FAVORITE MUSIC! SO MUCH TALENT!!

I remember Bon Jovi since the 80's I saw them live w/ Ratt!! Great show! Jon Bon Jovi and his band have some talent!!

This is used as the theme song to Deadliest Catch on Discovery Channel.

Bon Jovi You give love a bad name!!!

Supernatural TV show Sam and Dean sang with it while riding in the Impala.

Two other Bon Jovi recommendations, if you want to appreciate his vocal range check out Living on a Prayer. The other is the theme song to Young Guns 2- Blaze of Glory (another cowboy western themed song) Oh, one more Have a Nice Day. Sounds innocent enough but think saying have a nice day with your middle finger raised high. Great song. I don’t remember for sure but Blaze of Glory may actually be Jon Bon Jovi without his band.

Also a great intro song to the movie "Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man" (Mickey Rourke, Don Johnson) I consider this "asphalt rock" - love it.

More Bon Jovi: "Livin' On A Prayer", "You Give Love A Bad Name", "Always"

Jon and Richie were the very 1st singers to play acoustically at the AMAs. This is why they started the show show in MTV.

I will never forget seeing them live. Fantastic live, fantastic show! They have so many great songs, tons of hits. Thanks for reacting!

You definitely heard Living on a Prayer, that's Bon Jovi

I love the OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO of this song SO MUCH MORE than just the lyric video 💜

1:55 Which is why, whenever possible (and not blocked), you should watch the official video for whatever band you react to.

Ritchie needs back in the band. His Harmonies and playing make this band .

Dude you made me sub because of the massive range in your reactions.. no one else goes on a bon jovi binge out the blue..

I faintly remember an interview with Jon and he said that the “steel horse” referred to in the song was the tour bus. This song was a reflection of a time when they were on tour. If I remember correctly. It was a long time ago but the tour bus part stuck with me. Their song “Living On a Prayer” is considered to be one of the biggest songs to come out of the 80’s, not just the hair metal scene. Even people who didn’t listen to metal knew this song.

This song used as opening theme for Deadliest Catch !

This song always reminds me of an old episode of “Miami Vice” from the ‘80s. It was the theme song of an episode where Willie Nelson played a retired Texas Ranger out to revenge the murder of his son.

My Bon Jovi favorite song is "Bad Medicine"

MTV started the acoustic show because of Bon Jovi singing live accoustically on the AMAs.

Hey Billy check it out Jon Bon Jovi blaze of glory from the movie Young Guns 2.

I'm a truck driver too man, I've blasted this tune in the middle of the night numerous times

I was born in 1977 I grew up listening this in the 80’s and other music like this

It was the theme song for Deadliest Catch.

Bon Jovi - It's my life

This song has been sampled, been on all kinds of movies, commercials, tv shows, etc, that's why you know it somewhat.

It's Jon's take on being a rock star and comparing it to a cowboy in the old west. The steel horse is the tour bus. The loaded six string? Think guitars. ;)

The acoustic version of this song will really knock your socks off. I saw them in concert a thousand years ago. When guitarist, Richie Sambora, walked out on onstage with a triple-necked Ovation guitar (mandolin, 6-string, 12-string), and played the intro to this song, I had a religious experience.

I love Bon Jovi, seen him live twice. Song got even better when Sam & Dean sang it in Supernatural.

FYI!!!! the 'other vocals' (WANTED) belongs to Bon Jovi's guitarist Richie Sambora!!

An iron horse (steel horse) is a motorcycle. Modern day Jesse James! And you're right, they were fantastic in concert. The hair band era was an absolute blast!

You gotta watch Young Guns 1&2!!!!! They are such a great movies. You will love them. Man this song took me way back to the 80s. Best time to ever grow up in. (imo) All the hair bands like Bon Jovi, Cinderella Montley Crue etc...So happy you reacted to this. Now you gotta respond to LIVING ON A PRAYER by Bon Jovi. One of their most famous songs.

The song is a homage to bon jovi's early touring days when they were doing 100s of live shows on world tours, night after night, travelling around on a coach day after day, night after night, and the crowd would want them dead or alive, no matter what, they had to perform. Sometimes they'd sleep, sometimes not for days, people they meet, go their separate ways. Tell the days by the bottle (whiskey) that they'd drink. Times when they're alone, all they can do is think. Seen a million faces, and they've rocked them all. It's the Bon Jovi anthem.

Favorite song from movie.... Harley Davidson and Marlboro Man..

You should listen to the Black Crowes She Talks to Angels or hard to handle. I know you like Metallica do you still should listen to now that we're dead or Halo on fire.

The live version is amazing. When the crowd sings the first part!!

Bon Jovi for the win. Good call my mans! Thanks for being so crazy!

I saw Bon Jovi in concert in 1989 when I was 16 on their New Jersey tour and they were awesome, especially Richie Sambora! I grew up in Anchorage, AK and they were one of only a few bands back then that came to Alaska so we were psyched. They were only planning one show but they sold out three. Jon could still sing back then and it was a blast. My wife finally saw Bon Jovi in concert last year (without Sambora) and Jon’s vocals were crap with every song lowered and not even trying to hit the notes anyway. Sad. Enjoy exploring more Bon Jovi because they are hit machines who pumped out great rockin’ songs and heartfelt ballads. Some additional suggestions for rockin’ songs are Blood on Blood, You Give Love a Bad Name, Livin’ On a Prayer, Runaway, Bad Medicine, Lay Your Hands on Me, I’d Die For You, Blaze of Glory, and Wild in the Streets. Suggestions for ballads are Always, Never Say Goodbye, Born to Be My Baby, I’ll Be There For You, Living in Sin, Bed of Roses, and Someday I’ll Be Saturday Night.

was played in Supernatural.... Young Guns 1 and 2

This song was always on in the gym on my base when I was in the Air Force. Guys used to always say the steel horse for us was the aircraft.

SO MUCH GREAT MUSIC! SO MUCH TALENT! Without reactionist like you reacting to my oldschool music i would have missed out on the great newschool music

One of my favorite Bon Jovi songs.👏👏

This song is in several movies. Bet that is where youve heard the strings and hook

This song was at the height of his career and it's about him being wanted by everyone dead or alive the steel horse is his motorcycle

shot through the heart. from 1rst album.... best bon Jovi song... and in and out of love.... love lies... breakout... only lonely...

Runaway is a great song, one of their earliest ones.

It was on the soundtrack for Deadliest Catch. It was also played on Supernatural tv show. The music is based on the acoustic guitar riff Sambora came up with. It is one of the first things many new guitarists try to play. The "guitar part sounding like Led Zepplin" comments makes considerable sense, as Richie Sambora absolutely idolized Jimmy Page (Zep's Lead Guitarist) trying to emulate and even improve on riffs JP taught him.

Great song by a great band and Jon Bon Jovi's voice is also great! He has a ton of awesome songs! You should react to "It's My Life", " Livin On a Prayer", "You Give Love a Bad Name" and "Hallelujah"!

Im with you there, driver!

This is a song about being a band on the road and going from town to town....Almost every big band has a similar song about being lonely on the road. This is a good one.

Every time I listen to this song I always think of the movie Rock of Ages. XD Where Stacey Jaxx was singing to Constance

In the late 1980s/early 1990s, this song was a staple at near every biker clubhouse or bar.

It's about an outlaw Also,this song was from the second Scooby-Doo live action movie.

This song was in the movie about Billie the Kid that's probably why you recognize the beginning...the one where Emilio Estevez played Billy the Kid Lou Diamond Phillips, Kiefer Sutherland, Young Guns!!! That's the movies!!!😘 it was in Young Guns II

If you enjoyed this, watch rock of ages. Tom cruise, yes, the mission impossible man sang this song. It's a great movie. Musical type movie about rock and roll. Great great movie

I know this song from Supernatural season 3 finale and it makes me cry EVERY TIME! I literally balling my eyes out right now.😂 I really like the song though!

Here are a few to check out. “I Don't Want to Miss a Thing” by Aerosmith, “We Are Love” by Il Volo (there are 2 versions, English & Italian), “If I Can Dream” by Elvis Presley, “How Am I Supposed to Live Without You” by Michael Bolton & “I’ll Never Fall In Love Again” by Tom Jones.

it was played everywhere when it was out. I heard it everywhere there was a radio

This song is about touring and life on the road for a rock star (I've seen a million faces..and I've rocked them all). The "steel horse" is the tour bus. Wanted "dead or alive"... by the fans.

This Song is on an episode of supernatural & a part of the song is in the Scooby-Doo 2 Monsters Unleashed

The “steel horse” he’s referring to is his motorcycle

Bon Jovi is the kind of band that even if you don't know them well, you have heard A LOT of their songs even if you didn't know it at the time. You should listen to some of their newer material, post Crush and It's My Life.

Yeah, Bon Jovi had a lot of great songs. I'd also suggest (along with pretty much everyone else here) "Blaze of Glory". And also "It's My Life", "Livin' on a Prayer", "You Give Love a Bad Name", and "Always".

This song is mistakenly attributed to the movie "Young Guns II" (and sometimes "Young Guns") but Jon Bon Jovi did another song for YG2 called "Blaze of Glory." You should listen to it and watch the movies (in order) as well. They pretty much had most the of the 1980's "Brat Pack" in them.

If you ever watched Deadliest catch on the discovery channel, this is the song they play for the opening credits of the show.

I'm sure it's been mentioned, but this song is about the life of a musician traveling around playing shows. He's using old west metaphors.

Richie wrote this song with Bob Seagers "Turn the Page" in mind.

His “Lay Your Hands On Me” is also phenomenal

Man, Jon was one of my favorite celebrity rock star crush but got to say, he had better hair than I did,lol

I have been driving trucks for almost 19 years now

Trucker eh? My dad was one. People don't usually realize how hard that job can be. Much respect my friend.

Favourite song ever a classic 👍

The Wanted is from 1986 You give love a bad name(2986 Livin on a prayer (1986) Dry county is epic.do the lyrics video(1992. do the keep the faith live from London 95. Its my life (2000) Bon Jovi tour now in Europe in the biggest stadiums!!is a legendery rock band!! They sold 130.000.000 millions album's from1984-2019.

A common misconception about this song is that a ‘Steel Horse’ is a motorcycle, it typically is, in this case however, it’s a tour bus. The point of this song is to highlight the strains of touring, he’s Wanted Dead or Alive by the audience, like an old west outlaw going town to town, making no real connections, the life brings fame and hardship and the audience each night has no idea about the behind the scenes strain, it’s fresh to them. He has a ‘Loaded Six String’ on his back. That’s juxtaposing a guitar with a six-shooter western revolver.

This was and still may be the theme song for the show on Discovery Channel called Deadliest Catch and crab fishermen. Great show.

Love this song! Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora wrote this in the basement of Richie's Mom and Dad's basement.

Not about how old you are as a reaction artist Sir! Its about the reaction! I never would have heard JOYNAR LUCAS, J. COLE, TECH N9NE, THE REAL AK, NF, LOGIC, or known how many AMAZING LYRICIST ARE HERE IN THIS DAY! NOW!! 2019!!! THANK YOU!!!

Livin on a prayer is another good Bon Jovi song.

This song played in the show Deadliest Catch. You might have heard it there.

You may have heard it in a old movie called Young Guns. Lou Diamond Philip's, Elmo Estesves( I think) Keitfer Sullivan and many others.

official videos are so much better than lyric ones. This was an 80's rock band and the performance is what it's all about.

I just this in the car last night on my way home from work

The term "Cowboy" refers to him being a Rockstar. And the "steel horse" is the tour bus.

Definitely check out “Wanted Man” by Ratt

Livin on a Prayer next!

Intro is in the beginning of Deadliest Catch!

i usually thought of the steel horse as a motor cycle but in context its probably like a tour bus

I've no doubt several hip hop artists have sampled this song

BillyYouSoCrazy Since you did this one you should do "Blaze Of Glory", "You Give Love A Bad Name", "Bad Medicine", "Always", "Never Say Goodbye", "Born To Be My Baby" by Bon Jovi. Ohh and you should check out "Seminole Wind" & "Straight Tequila Night" by John Anderson and "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes" by George Jones.

I'm DOWN with some Bon Jovi. This dude has an AMAZING voice. Can you please react to Hail to the King by Avenged Sevenfold?

If you've ever seen Young Guns and Young Guns II, you've heard this song. Another one you gotta check from the movies by him is "Blaze of Glory." Kickass song!

Anybody gonna give Ritchie props for that harmony and solo?? 🤘🤘🤘

If you're as sad as I am then you picture the scene from the scooby doo movie where Fred is jousting the black Knight ghost, I loved this song way before that but can't help picturing it in my head

This was used for the Deadliest Catch intro if you watch that show

From Young Guns 1, He did Blaze of Glory for Young Guns 2

This song is the theme song for the Deadliest Catch on the Discovery Channel
