The Grammys: Bon Jovi Vote
As seen on CBS.com
Here’s your chance to pick what song Bon Jovi will perform live at the GRAMMYS®. Whether it’s the classic song ‘Livin on a Prayer’ or one of their newer hits, ‘Have a Nice Day’ the decision is up to you!
Here’s how it works: right now vote from the top six songs listed on the website. Remember you can vote every day. Then on January 25th the list will be narrowed down to the top three songs with the voting continuing everyday. Then tune in during the GRAMMYS live on Sunday January 31st to see which song Bon Jovi will perform!
The songs listed are:
Livin' on a Prayer
It's My Life
Wanted Dead or Alive
Bed of Roses
Always
Have a Nice Day
So, I'm confused.
Isn't the band up for a Grammy for a song off of the new record?
And yet there are no songs from the new record on the voting list?
Now, I will admit, I tried to vote for HAND today, just because I want to see Richie flip off the audience during the chorus, but the text you have to enter (you know, to make sure spambots aren't voting) keeps giving me an error. Says the text doesn't match the image. I even tried to leave feedback to that effect, but the only thing you can leave feedback on is something you saw on CBS TV. Not very helpful, I'm afraid.
So, since I can't vote, let's chat.
What song do YOU should they play and why?
Should there have been songs from the new record on the list?

I can't vote either and the listed songs confuse me too. I really hope they performe a new song and the choosen (voted) song is just a part of the medley (as stated in the rules).
unless they are asking artists to do more "vintage" stuff, who knows. For me, I'd vote for HAND or Always, because they don't do those live very often and it might serve to expand the fan base even more. Plus, Richie will want to flip off the audience, but just like at MSG, he'll be told he can't
Well, since the show is airing on my birthday, I think they should sing happy birthday to me. Is that up for a vote? LOL
Honestly though, songs from the new album definitely should have been included since they are up for an award for We Weren't Born to Follow.
I know everyone wants to hear the old stand by songs but, hello, new album, use the new songs people.
JMO.
@Queenie, I think you're right, they should sing to you lol
@Willow, Richie may be more apt to ignore them for the Grammy's than "his own people" for MSG lol We'll see. I think it'd be awesome, and far less disturbing than some of the other shenanigans that go on during these awards show. BTW, did anyone tell Kanye to stay home?
@Foxli, I hope they perform the new material. I mean sheesh, at the very least, it would get more people interested in the new record, right?
I'm betting they will perform nominated WWBTF as well; this song will likely be a second song or a shortened version leading in...
Sadly, I'm not terribly excited about any of these 6, but then again "casual fans" probably wouldn't even recognize what I'd want to hear, LOL! Guess I'd have to go with HAND....
@Catte, I hope so. I have to admit, I hated, HATED, that song when it first came out. I've heard it so much I've started to like it. It's gotten better each time they've performed it live, too, which helps.
In terms of the song(s) I would have liked to have chosen from, I'd have to include Lie to Me, Damned (though not sure the censors would like that one lol) and Diamond Ring.
I know, I know that last one doesn't showcase the band.
Still a fave...
