And all we knew at that point was being on the road and women, so that’s predominantly what we kind of sang about in those days.” – Richie Sambora And quite frankly it was because in our life at that point, in that juncture of time, we were 26 years old. “I think the most interesting part of that song, it was the first time we ever used characters. Besides, it’s his signature song so butchering it should be a crime. The correct lyrics are, well, more wholesome. That word just becomes extra sexy coming off his lips but sadly, he didn’t sing that one. “Naked” and Bon Jovi go so well together we’re tempted to let this slide.

Is that even inclusive enough now? How about everyone? Hello everyone!"ĥ. Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen.

Sample banter: "Hello ladies and gentlemen.

Healy certainly received a rock star welcome during the first three songs, but instead of soaking up the accolades, he paused the show anyway and asked people to spread out, saying it was stressful seeing so many people crowded toward the front, and implored his fans to take it easy during the next song "Sincerity Is Scary." A little later, Healy showed the safety and comfort of his fans was still on his mind, squatting and placing his hands on a security guard's shoulders as he whispered something in his ear.

God Bless The 1975" flashing on the screen during "Sex." Then during show finale "The Sound," a series of harsh criticisms as seen in the music video flashed on the screen ("robotic Huey Lewis tunes" and "punch-your-TV obnoxious" among them), but the crowd jumped exuberantly through this so-called "derivative pop" anyway.

The self-referential commentary continued during the encore, with the words "Rock & Roll is Dead.

What does it mean to be a rock star in 2019? At that moment, providing hope and community to thousands in troubled times, Healy appeared to have found his answer. "Truth is only hearsay/We're left here to decay/Modernity has failed us," Healy sang in front of retina-singeing video clips of recent atrocities, his lyrics highlighting racial injustice against black men and quoting President Donald Trump's offensive comments from that infamous "Access Hollywood" tape.īut amid all that anguish was the quietly hopeful chorus of the title, repeated again and again, and Healy and the twins dancing in defiance. And Healy's Auto-Tune-drenched pleas for help on "I Like America & America Likes Me" ("I'm scared of dying … Would you please listen?") erupted into a crowdwide rallying cry.īut it was near the end of Friday's hour and 40-minute set where Healy the entertainer and Healy the artist found perfect synergy during "Love It If We Made It."

"I've been looking through you while you're looking through your phone," Healy sang during "Somebody Else," the soft-spoken confessional blossoming to an impassioned singalong.

Songs from last year's "A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships," the band's strongest statement to date, really illustrated that mastery Friday. The frontman certainly has a magnetic charisma, but it's what Healy says in his songs, more than what he does on stage, that's propelled the 1975 to arenas.īehind a front of jaded lyrics and self-referential winks lies some vulnerable songwriting that speaks to the fear and longing of coming of age in the digital age. Healy's "what is a rock star?" narrative Friday likely didn't matter much to anyone besides the band and, well, the critics writing about them. Some of his stage antics were clearly tongue in chee, the way he took drags of a cigarette and sips of red wine during "Change of Heart," as he dryly sang about an ex-lover proclaiming he "looked like (expletive) and smelled a bit."īut Healy was also entertaining without irony, synchronizing steps with the Jay sisters for "TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME," tossing up hallelujah arms backed by strobe-light blasts for the gospel-touched "If I Believe You," and throwing out jazz hands and jogging in place (with a Davy Crockett hat on his head) for show opener "Give Yourself a Try." And despite his staged dilemma about rock stardom, Healy has really come into the role nicely.
