Bon Jovi's first number one single was written for their third album 'Slippery when wet' released in 1986 which is also considered their breakthrough album. The major difference between this and
the last album was the first ever collaboration with songwriter Desmond Child.
The lyrics include lines like 'Shot through the heart and you're to blame', 'a schoolboy's dream you act so shy, your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye' or 'I play my part you play your
game' that instantly show the extreme irony and as Jon always says that it is 'meant to be fun'. Every fan knows the lyrics to it and there's no show without this song.
Fun Fact: This song has originally been written for the band Loverboy.
