SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 5:19 Min.
This mid-tempo ballad is among the ‘inspired-by’ tracks appearing on Jon Bon Jovi’s 1990 Blaze of Glory soundtrack for the Young Guns II movie. At the time of its initial release, Bon Jovi also released the song’s music video.
REVIEW:
This tune readily fits any Bon Jovi album. More specifically, “Miracle” has some timeless lyrics and a spot-on melody that ages remarkably well. In the film’s context, Billy the Kid senses that his frontier immortality may be running out, as he and his pals play hide ‘n’ seek with Pat Garrett’s relentless posse. In a vintage effort, Jon Bon Jovi’s vocals are the best asset to this worthwhile download. Along with “Blaze of Glory,” the world-weary “Miracle” should be welcome on any 90’s rock playlist.
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 8 Stars
