One Wild Night? Well, that's not strictly true, as this live album was recorded at Bon Jovi concerts spanning three decades. But why be pedantic when the result is a live album that effectively doubles as a greatest-hits collection? Bon Jovi's songs are tailor-made for stadiums and arenas, and, from classic fist-in-the-air rockers ("Livin' on a Prayer," "Bad Medicine," "You Give Love a Bad Name," "Runaway") to lighters-in-the-air numbers ("Keep the Faith," "Wanted Dead or Alive," "Something to Believe In"), the choices are suitably larger than life. The career-reviving single "It's My Life" sounds right at home, as do great covers of Neil Young's "Rockin' in the Free World" (recorded, appropriately enough, in Johannesburg in 1995) and the Boomtown Rats' "I Don't Like Mondays" (performed with Sir Bob Geldof). --Robert Burrow

Customer Reviews

A Party CD With All Invited
The 80's were a time of big hair, cool songs, and loads of fun. The 90's were a time of depression and deep thought. The new century, thus far, has seemed to be heading a little bit back to the 80's mentality and who better to usher in the new millennium of rock music than Bon Jovi?

Arguably the greatest Rock band of all time, personally my 6th favorite band, Bon Jovi released "One Wild Night' a compilation of the band's greatest hits performed live since 1985 in various different locations. One Wild Night, a cool song off their most recent album "Crush," serves as the title and I have to say that this is going right next to my set of party rock CD's next to ACDC Live, the KISS Alive set, and Poison's Power to the People. It is, without question, one of the better CD's of my collection which is not what I expected it to be.

It's a party CD. Plain and simple, it's not necessarily basic pop, it's not necessarily dance music, it's just a feel good, shake your bootie, bang your head good time. Though track 1 is "It's My Life," which I never really found too musically appealing live as I think the guitar should be used more prominently in the song as it does sound hard rock, not like it ended up sounding. The rest of the album is a giant rock and roll party. They take songs like Keep the Faith, which I never was a big fan of, and turn it into an incredible melody of blazing guitar and energetic chorus. Also, Rockin' in the Free World is something to keep your eyes open for.

Topping it all off is the one and only studio song on the album called One Wild Night 2001. Though the original One Wild Night came out in 2000 and was a hard ACDC meets Ricki Martin type dance song, this version drops the Ricki Martin aspect (which I applaud) and brings in more of the older Bon Jovi sound to create a "hair metal" sound that quite honestly makes me wonder how anyone could ever laugh at bands like Poison and Motley Crue, whom I've never turned my back upon and never will. All in all, Bon Jovi has gained my faith once again after a fairly unsavory review that I gave to Crush (though I think it's better than the boy band music out today by leaps and bounds). This is everything you'll ever need if you're a Bon Jovi fan, and all you'll need to become one.

DISC TWO: 1. I Believe 2. Say It Isn't So 3. I'll Sleep When I'm Dead 4. Hey God 5. Tokyo Road 6. Someday I'll Be Saturday Night 7. Lay Your Hands On Me 8. Bad Medicine 9. Wanted: Dead or Alive 10.I'll Be There For You 11.Only Lonely 12.In These Arms 13.Next 100 Years 14.This Ain't a Love Song 15.Keep The Faith

If you agree with me, please press "review helpful" to show the best band in the world what is missing. Even if you disagree with some songs, click it just because of the point. Thank you.

Great Live Bon Jovi CD
I am not a fan of live albums, but a huge fan of Bon Jovi. My husband wanted to get this for me, and I almost talked him out of it, because I have all the other albums with these songs on them. I am glad I let him get it for me anyway. This is a great live version CD. I usually hate these CDs.

I was not too keen on the song with Sir Bob Geldof. I mean, what's the point? I want to hear the band..not him on a Bon Jovi CD. Their version of Rockin' in the Free World is good.
I could listen to them sing anything. They are truly one of the greatest rock bands ever.

If you are looking for a good collection of "greatest hits" I would recommend Crossroads over this CD. If you are a fan, you need to have this live version in your CD collection.
