Bon Jovi fans, still, anyone? Thought I’d share this earnest rendition of The Beatles‘ classic Let It Be by Jon Bon Jovi & Richie Sambora. Oh just watch it – it’s amaze!
It was the closing act of the 2007 Royal Variety Performance. Royal Variety Performance, if you didn’t know (and you’re perfectly within your rights to not…), is an annual variety show put up for the British monarchy, typically consisting of British performers. Bon Jovi, in 2007, was the first American act to headline this gala affair. (Rumour has it that The Queen specifically asked for them!) The year 2007 marked another first for RVP as it was held at Liverpool for the first time to celebrate the city’s 800th anniversary and “European Capital of Culture for 2008″ designation. And what better way to end the show than to the greatest song from the city’s four most famous sons?
PS. Does JBJ ever age?
