Rare Bon Jovi – “Blaze Of Glory” Houston Performance Live 1991

Rare Bon Jovi – “Blaze Of Glory” Houston Performance Live 1991 | Society Of Rock Videos

Taking The Women By Storm

A young and handsome Jon Bon Jovi, sang his heart out to the tune of “Blaze of Glory” to the women of Houston 1991 and rocked the house.

Recording this song for the film Young Guns II, with heartthrob Emilio Estevez back in the ’90s, this song became quite an anthem which is clear by the high pitch screams of a particular woman overlapping the vocals in this song.

“I’m going out in a blaze of glory. Take me now but know the truth. I’m going out in a blaze of glory”

We all love the unforgettable Jon Bon Jovi, but something during this performance touches our hearts to their core. Maybe it is the 90s get up he is sporting or the sonic hold he had over every woman in the audience that night, but he really is a charming singer and performer.

Fun Fact: This song won a Golden Globe award for Best Original Song.

We honestly consider ourselves lucky to even have this amazing song gracing our presence, in all of its 720pHD glory. Enjoy!

+ Blaze of Glory Lyrics +

I wake up in the morning
And I raise my weary head
I’ve got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last night’s bed
I don’t know where I’m going
Only God knows where I’ve been
I’m a devil on the run
A six gun lover
A candle in the wind

When you’re brought into this world
They say you’re born in sin
Well at least they gave me something
I didn’t have to steal or have to win
Well they tell me that I’m wanted
Yeah, I’m a wanted man
I’m a colt in your stable
I’m what Cain was to Abel
Mister catch me if you can

I’m going out in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I’m going out in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I’m no one’s son
Call me young gun

You ask about my conscience
And I offer you my soul
You ask if I’ll grow to be a wise man
Well I ask if I’ll grow old
You ask me if I’ve known love
And what it’s like to sing songs in the rain
Well, I’ve seen love come
And I’ve seen it shot down
I’ve seen it die in vain

Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
‘Cause I’m going down in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I’m the devil’s son
Call me young gun

Each night I go to bed
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
No I ain’t looking for forgiveness
But before I’m six foot deep
Lord, I got to ask a favor
And hope you’ll understand
‘Cause I’ve lived life to the fullest
Let this boy die like a man
Staring down a bullet
Let me make my final stand

Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I’m going out in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
And I’m no one’s son
Call me young gun
I’m a young gun
Young gun, yeah yeah yeah
Young gun
