Jon Bon Jovi - It's Only Make Believe (Conway Twitty Cover / Los Angeles 1998)

Performed at the "Arnold Schwarzenegger Tribute", I finally found that video snippet on an old tape last night.
The quality wasn't the best, but I could save some during the transfer and replaced the audio with a different source.

OK, I must admit. When I first saw that Bon Jovi had covered it’s only make believe, I said this isn’t going to go well. Have a grown-up listening to both artist, and I just didn’t see John singing this song the way it should be sang. However I must say just like the comment below, I too am impressed. He was able to keep Conways concept of the song intact, while including his unique 80s voice that we all grew up loving great job!

Respectable, but he doesn't have the voice to do this song justice. This is a pop song that The Three Tenors should have done for kicks.

I have to admit that I don't think anyone else could have done it as well as bon Jovi. He impressed the heck out of me and being a eternal Conway fan, that wasn't easy to do

@@dianeribchester4429 I am a bit biased and think Glen Campbell's version is the best, simply by the way he makes the song climax together with his vocals

Lainey Kleever Conway was a fav of mine until I was 14 and my dad took me to a rodeo in Sikeston MO to see him. We found his bus and as soon as the concert was over, I ran as hard and fast as I could to get to the bus before Conway. He came out, walked between the bus and fence where I was standing holding a piece of paper and pen asking for an autograph. I was the only person there, my family hadn’t caught up to me yet, and still Conway wouldn’t give me an autograph. I was a kid, but that was the end of my idolizing, or listening to, Conway. As an adult, I can make lots of excuses, rationalize, and justify why he didn’t stop to sign an autograph, but as a child, there was no excuse. He didn’t have time for me and I wasn’t going to spend time or money on him. I’m sure he never missed my $3 for his albums/45s.
