Possibly the best rock band to ever put out an entire album of power ballads (Slippery When Wet). Led by singer Jon Bon Jovi, the band is one of the few to make the transition from the 80's hair metal scene to the alternative nineties. Liked mostly by girls, and currently not cool in the public's eye, but we all know that they rocked pretty hard.

A decent singer and band who get a lot of hate simply because they are not as metal or rock as other bands. Criminally underrated, the only people who hate Bon Jovi are people who listen to songs that make zero sense. Bon Jovi's songs are known for packing many emotions and telling stories about hard-working and respectful working-class people, unlike those horrible metal bands like Metallica who scream random bullshit.
Metallica fan: Oh man, Bon Jovi songs suck!
Any other normal human: At least their songs make sense and tell beautiful stories! What does Metallica sing about?
Metallica fan: ...I'm tired of this conversation.

One of the most incredible bands of all time. Many people judge them by some of the latest albums which aren't half as good as the early songs. Best songs include:livin' on a prayer, these days, just older, mystery train, in these arms, bed of roses, damned, diamond ring and so much more I can't name them. One of the few non-druggy bands around.
Some Guy with a good grasp of English: Bon Jovi are wicky-bo init
Another guy:Aye, man...dey is kickin.

As a verb, to "Bon Jovi" someone is to completely humiliate them either by their stupid actions or by your superior actions.
In modern cyber/text message language, to "Bon Jovi" someone is to completely pwn them, most often through some humiliating action.
