Jon Bon Jovi said: I wrote Bed Of Roses in an hotelroom, it was during the time of the young guns record and the ktf album, and I was in LA, working on an album, a nova record. I was sitting in a hotel, and asked Paul Korzilius, who was our road manager at that time, to see if theres this wedding thats going on, if theyd bring up the piano to my room when they were done. And I went out that night, and got way into trouble. The next day I was determined to do some writing, and instead of laying the pencil down, which is what u do 99 out of a 100 times, I actually wrote down the lyric trying to capture that moment, but this moment i dont know, and the truth of that matter is that I was incredibly hungover. I wrote that verse and finally stoped playing. I played about a dozen songs for this guy, who helped me do the Young Guns record, as well as a bunch of other records I did. The 13th thing I played for him were those verses, and he said u got a couple of good ones here, but u gotta pull that song out of u .. u gotta finish that one. He made me go home and write that one, and of course Im really glad I went home and forced myself to write that one, cause it was such a big hit. It was a very personal song, a lot of problems were exposed in that.
