In this new video from Associated Press, Jon Bon Jovi and his bandmates reveal they never discuss politics, with the singer stating, "I don't even know the political affiliations of the guys in the band."
Bon Jovi release their new album, This House Is Not For Sale, today (Friday, November 4th) in partnership with Island/UMG. In the video below, Jon Bon Jovi discusses the album’s title track:
This House Is Not For Sale is Bon Jovi’s 14th studio album since their 1984 debut. It reunites the band with Grammy Award-winning producer John Shanks, who began working with the band in 2005, for the RIAA platinum Have A Nice Day album, which entered the charts at #1 in 15 countries worldwide.
This is their first major release since What About Now (2013), which was the band’s third consecutive multi-platinum album to enter Soundscan at #1 (following Lost Highway in 2007, and The Circle in 2009).
Over an illustrious career spanning more than three decades since their formation in 1983, Bon Jovi has earned their place among global rock royalty. With over 130 million albums sold worldwide, an extensive catalog of hit anthems, and more than 2,800 concerts performed in 50 countries for more than 35 million fans, Bon Jovi is the consummate rock and roll band.
