20 years ago: Again, I'll let the video speak first:
Jon Bon Jovi was asked to write the theme song for the film "Young Guns II: Blaze of Glory." He released an entire album of music "from and inspired by" the film, and the lead single set the world on fire, hitting #1 in the US and Australia, receiving a Golden Globe award and Grammy and Academy Award nominations. The album also featured guest appearances from legends such as Jeff Beck and Elton John.
Today: Jon never really went away like many of his hair band compatriots. His eponymous band, Bon Jovi, has released eight original albums, two "greatest hits" compilations (with a third on the way), a live album, a box set, and a documentary since 1990. They tour incessantly, and this year, released ten of their albums in expanded, remastered form, including live and rare tracks with each one.
