American rock band Bon Jovi, formed in 1983 in New Jersey, became one of the world’s most popular stadium rock bands. With albums such as Slippery When Wet and New Jersey and hits like "Livin’ on a Prayer", "You Give Love a Bad Name" and "Always", Bon Jovi won millions of fans worldwide. Their energetic performances and catchy choruses made them icons of the 1980s and 1990s. A fun fact is that in 1989 Bon Jovi became the first Western rock band to perform in the Soviet Union, right in the middle of the Cold War.
