๐ข Awesome This is why I love his music so much
God is good all the time
You sure this is not just a set up to promote his next tour or album?
GOD loves you so much โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
i wanted to end mylife when i was 20. i had no money, no plans for future and owned nothing. Now i own a house, nice car, have plans and life is great. Young ppl need to understand that things chance.. no matter how bad it is now, it can change into better and better to great.
God bless her and God bless him ๐ โค. Lord please let her find a peaceful path so that she may thrive in this world and know that You Lord are with her every step of the way. ๐ โค In Jesus name I pray this for her. Amen โจ๏ธ ๐ ๐ โจ๏ธ
How can you just walk by?
Well done you Mr Bon Jovi.๐๐
Let's be grateful it was Bon Jovi and not Van Halen ๐
That song is nice God like the prayers ๐
You the man bro you wasn't there she jumped like a ediot kn body wouldn't off known her dead body in that river till her body pop's up out off kn where we'll done John
How can other people just walk by?
Diddy or Kanye prob wouldve pushed her
So glad it was Jon Bon Jovi and not David Lee Roth yelling "Jump"
This brought me to tears, but what really grinds my gears are the couple that walked passed her minding their business as the baby appears to attempt to walk towards the lady to possibly comfort her.
He really did that. โค See, not a bystander. He directly helped. Y'all do the same and the world will be a better place. I hope this lady gets support care, not some hand off to police to treated like a criminal. She needs support not another reason to stand at that bridge contemplating you know what.
Truly Amazing
What a great guy. He has stayed so true to himself. โค
Odd that they were filming the whole thing ๐ฎ
It would have ended very differently if it were Van Halen
I'm surprised she didn't try to attempt after Jon pulled her over and she just walked away like nothing happened
God bless ya jon
Good Samaritan and philanthropist; JBJ Soul forever!

Wow! That's him, my lovely Rock Star, Jon Bon Jovi. I will always love your heart, your band, and all of your beautiful songs.
"I'll Be There for You"
Staged
Good man๐โค
Bravo!
Goodjob sir Jon bon Jovi we salute youโคโคโคโคโคโค
Mr Bon Jovi supports Kamala Harris. Iโm guessing heโs not aware that she and the Democrat party are anti free speech. Iโm just guessing he doesnโt know. Imagine the pos heโd be if he does know. Hope the woke havenโt grabbed you Jon, youโve always seemed a good guy. Cheers
i have always loved him
