This is a live performance of "Help" by Bon Jovi, on the Howard Stern Show. I think it's amazingly powerful and sad, and really moving. It's so slow and drawn out that it's like a dirge.

And they've sort of merged it with Amazing Grace at the beginning, in a way I think I lack the musical vocubulary to put my finger on.

Great intro.

Singing killed the instrumentals.

Takes a little getting used to being so slow. I think I'd like it better if it had been the first version I'd heard. I keep sitting here thinking, "Pick it up!" and "Enunciate already!"

Not bad, but U2 beat them to the punch a few years back doing a slowed-down version of "Help".

LOL Not nearly the dirge that Bon Jovi did. But, this is what he was refering to...

I remember this, I must have seen it on TV or something, that's a really great version too.
