"You Give Love a Bad Name" is a song by the rock band Bon Jovi, released as the first single from their 1986 album ''Slippery When Wet''. Written by Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora and Desmond Child about a woman who has jilted her lover, the song reached No. 1 on the U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot 100 on November 29, 1986 to become the band's first number one hit. In 2007, the song reentered the charts at No. 29 after Blake Lewis performed it on ''American Idol''. In 2009 it was named the 20th greatest hard rock song of all time by VH1.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://music.spreadit.org/vh1-top-100-hard-rock-songs/ )〕 Despite the lyrics of the chorus, the song should not be confused with "Shot Through the Heart", an unrelated song from Bon Jovi's 1984 self-titled debut album. ==Composition== "You Give Love a Bad Name" was originally written for Bonnie Tyler under the title "If You Were a Woman (And I Was a Man)" with different lyrics. Dissatisfied with its success in the US and UK, Desmond Child re-wrote the song with Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora. The song was written with several catchy repeated lines and associated hooks to appeal to mainstream audiences including the chorus as well as several bridges. This song is written in the key of C minor and has a tempo of 123 BPM. The album version of the song ends with the title being repeated until it fades. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「You Give Love a Bad Name (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
