"Superman Tonight" music video to premiere on Vevo!
February 2, 2010(Feb. 2, 2010 – New York, NY) The show-stopping video for “Superman Tonight,” the explosive new single by Island Records group Bon Jovi, will premiere at #1 music network VEVO on Wednesday, February 3rd, prior to the clip’s broadcast premiere on VH1 Saturday, February 6th.
The news coincides with Bon Jovi’s debut performance at the Grammy Awards on Sunday night, broadcast on CBS-TV. The performance climaxed a two-week contest that invited fans to log-in at CBS.com and choose from a menu of six classic Bon Jovi songs for the band to perform – “Living on a Prayer” was chosen as the winner. At the Grammys, Bon Jovi was nominated for Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals for “We Weren’t Born To Follow.”
“Superman Tonight” is the latest single from THE CIRCLE, Bon Jovi’s 11th studio album (released November 10th). In addition to its #1 Soundscan debut in the U.S., THE CIRCLE was top 10 in more than a dozen territories worldwide.
As Bon Jovi’s 25th year celebration on record continues into 2010, the global success of THE CIRCLE and the release of “Superman Tonight” sets the stage for the band’s upcoming “The Circle World Tour.” A 32-city North American itinerary opens the world tour, beginning February 19th at KeyArena in Seattle, wrapping up four months later on July 30th, at Soldier Field in Chicago. Among the high points, Bon Jovi will play the kickoff event at New Jersey’s New Meadowlands Stadium, set for pre-Memorial Day on Wednesday-Thursday, May 26-27th.
THE CIRCLE follows-up Bon Jovi’s worldwide multi-platinum albums: Have A Nice Day (2005), with the Grammy winning single, “Who Says You Can’t Go Home”; and Lost Highway (2007), which debuted at #1 in the U.S. and around the world.
Over the next two years, Bon Jovi’s “The Circle World Tour,” promoted by AEG Live, will play 135 shows in 30 countries. Having sold over 120 million albums and performed more than 2,600 concerts in over 50 countries for more than 34 million fans, the Grammy Award-winning band is at their best when they’re on the move, and that’s truer now than ever before. THE CIRCLE album and world tour reassert Bon Jovi’s commitment to the hard-hitting rock and roll that has been their indelible signature for more than 25 years. Tickets for “The Circle World Tour” are on sale now for all North American concerts – information can be found at http://www.bonjovi.com/tour.
