Blast From the Past: Living In Sin

It seems that on YouTube many old videos are finding new life. Stereogum revisits old videos infrequently, and there's a lot of 80s footage on the 'Tube as well. I subscribe to several record labels on YouTube and recently Universal uploaded several videos from my favorite band from childhood.

Yes, Bon Jovi!

This is a video that features a youngish, if not adoringly handsome, Fabio. Before he was an international sex symbol, and then total joke, he was a video star. (Actually, this video was probably after he became an international sex symbol, but before he became a joke.) This song, "Living In Sin," surprisingly was a number one hit on the Billboard 200 chart. It's one of the cheesier songs (aren't they all?) from the Jovi crew, and I still love it today.

Highlight: Watch the look Fab shoots at his dad at 2:31. Priceless.



Doesn't that just make you want to dig out the purple leather pants?

God bless you, Jon Bon Jovi. God bless you.



Grant.
