Jon Bon Jovi reportedly shares a close bond with Bruce Springsteen, the American rock singer.

In his latest documentary, Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story, the singing sensation reflected on his relationship with close pal Bruce Springsteen, who is also nicknamed “the Boss.”

As per the findings of People Magazine, Jon was performing a Bruce’s cover at a local Jersey Club, when he caught Bruce’s attention.

“I looked up, and there's Bruce onstage with me. That was the guy. And he jumps up and sings his song with me,” the singer recalled.

He then addressed, "So you go to high school the next day. Needless to say, you look at the teacher and you look at the kids, and you go, ‘I got a story to tell! and it's a lot better than history class.’”

Gushing over his idol, Jon also mentioned in the 4-episode long docuseries, “It was so inspirational because those records by the [Asbury] Jukes, and by Bruce, were written and sung by guys in our backyard.”

“They weren’t the centerfolds of Circus magazine that made the dream just out of reach. These guys were capable of making the impossible seem possible,” he remarked before moving to another discussion.
