"Runaway" is a single by American rock band Bon Jovi.
 The song was originally recorded in 1981 for the so-called "Power Station Demos".
 The recordings were primarily done by an ensemble simply known as John Bongiovi & the Rest.
 One night after a show, Richie Sambora found Bon Jovi backstage and told him that he should be the guitarist.
 Bon Jovi wrote him off and did not think much of it but told him to learn the material and show up for rehearsal.
 Sambora was early and knew the material and Bon Jovi was impressed; in that moment, Sambora became the band's lead guitarist and Bon Jovi was born.
These Days (stylized as "(these Days)") is the sixth studio album by American rock band Bon Jovi, released on June 27, 1995 by Mercury Records.
 This was the first album Bon Jovi released after the dismissal of original bass guitarist Alec John Such.
 It was also the first album to feature unofficial bass guitarist Hugh McDonald, who became an official member in 2016.
 The album, produced by Peter Collins, Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora, is praised by many critics and fans as their best album.
 "These Days" is overall a darker album in contrast to the band's usual brand of feel-good, inspiring rock songs and love ballads.
David Bromberg (born September 19, 1945) is an American multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter.
 An eclectic artist, Bromberg plays bluegrass, blues, folk, jazz, country and western, and rock and roll.
 He is known for his quirky, humorous lyrics, and the ability to play rhythm and lead guitar at the same time.
"This Is Our House" is a song by American rock band Bon Jovi.
 It was originally written by Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora and Desmond Child and recorded in 2009.
 Originally intended as an exclusive track for the forthcoming National League Super Bowl season, it became a hit with Bon Jovi fans who asked for it to be including on the band's new hits collection.
 Greatest Hits had already been pressed to disk and it was too late to include the song of a physical format but it made its debut proper as a bonus track if one downloaded Greatest Hit from the band's website.
 The song was also released as a bonus track on the iTunes edition of their Greatest Hits collection in the UK and Europe, but was released as a digital single in September 2011.
 Bon Jovi opened many shows in 2010-2012 with This Is Our House.
"This House Is Not for Sale" is a song by American rock band Bon Jovi from their thirteenth studio album, "This House Is Not for Sale".
 It was released as the album's lead single on August 12, 2016.
 The song was written by Jon Bon Jovi, John Shanks, and Billy Falcon, and it was produced by Jovi and Shanks.
 Jovi has said of "This House Is Not for Sale": "this song is about integrity and what we were going through these last three years.
 We've become even closer and, as the song says, 'this heart, this soul, this house is not for sale.'"
 The song also features the promotions of bassist Hugh McDonald and guitarist Phil X to official members.
Keep the Faith: An Evening with Bon Jovi is a live concert that aired on MTV in late 1992 prior to the release of the band's then upcoming album "Keep the Faith".
 The performance captures Bon Jovi in an intimate, "in the round" experience, performing acoustic and electric renditions of classic hits (Bon Jovi and non-Bon Jovi tracks), new material from "Keep the Faith", and also behind the scenes footage.
 The show took place at the Kaufman's Studios Astoria in Queens, New York City in 1992, and released commercially in 1993.
 To date it is the only live home video that has not been re-issued on DVD.
Keep the Faith is the fifth studio album by American rock band Bon Jovi, released on November 3, 1992 by Mercury Records.
 It is the last album to feature original bass guitarist Alec John Such, before his dismissal from the band in 1994.
 It is Bon Jovi's first album since 1985's "7800° Fahrenheit" not to be produced by Bruce Fairbairn.
 It was also their first album to have a title track.
 The album was produced by Bob Rock and was recorded at the Little Mountain Sound Studios in Vancouver, Canada.
 "Keep the Faith" represents the beginning of a new chapter in the history of Bon Jovi, marking a change of both the band's image and sound.
 Moving away from their early glam metal roots in previous albums, it introduced a more "rock n roll" driven groove to Bon Jovi's sound.
 The album turned away from heavy drums and wild guitar solos, but instead introduced a new sound of Bon Jovi which consisted of piano ballads and long epic guitar solos.
Hugh John McDonald (born December 28, 1950) is an American musician who is best known for his session work and for being the current bass guitarist of the American rock band Bon Jovi, whom he joined as an unofficial member in November 1994, not becoming an official member until 2016.
 He made his recording debut as a session musician for The Deirdre Wilson Tabac self-titled album in 1969.
 Before joining Bon Jovi he was the bass guitarist for the David Bromberg Band, touring extensively worldwide and playing on many Bromberg albums.
 He has played with many other artists, both live and in the studio, and has recorded with Willie Nelson, Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, Steve Goodman, Ringo Starr, Lita Ford, Michael Bolton, Cher, Alice Cooper, Ricky Martin, Michael Bublé, Bret Michaels, others and did a few dates during the Shania Twain, the Woman in Me TV tour.
Bon Jovi is an American rock band from Sayreville, New Jersey.
 Formed in 1983, Bon Jovi consists of lead singer and namesake Jon Bon Jovi, pianist and keyboardist David Bryan, drummer Tico Torres, lead guitarist Phil X, and bassist Hugh McDonald.
 The band's lineup has remained mostly static during its history, with the only exceptions being the 1994 dismissal of bass player Alec John Such, who was unofficially replaced by Hugh McDonald, and the departure of longtime guitarist and co-songwriter Richie Sambora in 2013.
 Phil X and McDonald both became official members in 2016.
"Real Life" is a single by American rock band Bon Jovi, released in 1999.
 It is taken from the soundtrack of the film "EDtv".
 A remix of the song is also present on the "100,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Can't Be Wrong" boxset.
 It reached the top 40 on the Radio & Records Airplay chart.
 At the time he was an unofficial member of the band, so this marked the only time that bassist Hugh McDonald is featured on a Bon Jovi release's artwork until 2016, when he was featured on the artwork for the This House Is Not For Sale single.
