Bon Jovi, Jelly Roll, and the Living Proof

I'm about a week late posting this, as I've been busy and in a different time zone, though I did listen to it when it came out... "it" being "Living Proof" by Bon Jovi featuring Jelly Roll.

Check out the new "Living Proof" lyric video:

 

The original "Living Proof" was released as a single with very little fanfare in May 2024 and never got a music video. Maybe this version could have served as a hard relaunch that attracted Jelly Roll's fans, except... the dude's barely on it, lol.

Bruce Springsteen and The War and Treaty added something interesting to their versions of "Hollow Man" and "The People's House" respectively. Jelly Roll's inclusion on "Living Proof" seems pointless, like he was some rando who got handed a mic at a karaoke night and sang a verse then left. I'm not particularly well versed on Jelly Roll's music, but I'm sure he could have contributed something more than that.

Anyway, I have no real problems with the track, but I can't hear any good reason to listen to this one instead of the original (or neither if you didn't care for "Living Proof" in the first place)... your mileage may vary, of course.

What do you think?
