Livin' on a Prayer Video & Audio

Here's our song of the hour in all its Bon Jovi glory.

"Livin' on a Prayer" has a rare effect upon fans. This guy, caught on the Jumbotron during a timeout during a Boston Celtics game, simply can't keep from rocking out.

In 2001, just following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Bon Jovi performed a slow, mournful version "Livin' on a Prayer" as part of the America: A Concert for Heroes fundraising event.

This rare concert footage captures the band performing "Livin' on a Prayer" in 1986, just after its release. From the crowd's reaction, it's clear that the song hasn't yet become as well known as Bon Jovi's earlier 1984 hit, "Runaway."
