It's an interesting idea..... December 28, 2006 J. Fitzgerald (Henderson, NV - USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
....but it ultimately fails. I just can't get behind it. Everything seems off tempo or out of tune, and the violin or cello that is supposed to portray Jon's voice is just annoying and sounds closer to a cat in heat than Jon Bon Jovi.
Bon Jovi??? January 21, 2004 Linda Beaubier (kearny, nj United States) 6 out of 9 found this review helpful
As a huge fan of Bon Jovi, I was mistaken in thinking this had anything to do with the group as opposed to the group writing these songs at one time - It's as if a string quartet of some pretty good musicians recorded Jovi's songs with a fiddle as Jon's voice - I'm sorry, but I should have done without.
A stunning and pleasant surprise December 6, 2003 Adam Nystrom (Bethlehem, PA) 10 out of 13 found this review helpful
I was browsing the music section of a store in October and under the Bon Jovi listing, I happened upon this tribute album. I had never heard of this before, and being the rabid fan that I am, as well as having an appreciation for classical music, I decided to pick it up. I wasn't really sure what to expect from it, as Jon Bon Jovi's voice can not be substituted by anything. With that being said, I was blown away by this album. While it is true that some songs (Bed of Roses, Always, I'll Be There for You) would naturally translate into the smooth flowing music created by a string quartet, the tracks originally sounding harder (It's My Life, Everyday, Lay Your Hands On Me) take on a flavor all their own. If you have never listened to Bon Jovi before (shame on you two or three people), I advise you to listen to the original songs, then see how well they have translated into this form. For the rest of us, who already know how many faces have been seen and all of us who have been rocked, get this disc while it lasts.
