Bon Jovi and Robbie Williams Collaborate on New Song “We Made It Look Easy” for All-Star Forever Event
Bon Jovi recently dropped the dynamic new duet entitled We Made It Look Easy, featuring the British pop sensation Robbie Williams, as a precursor to the debut of Forever (Legendary Edition), a reimagined version of their 2024 album Forever, set to hit the shelves on 24 October.
Frontman Jon Bon Jovi expressed his longstanding admiration for Williams, referring to him as “one of the greatest entertainers, period.” He went on to state, “I’ve loved his music for years and I’m honored to have him collaborate with me and the band on We Made It Look Easy. He truly embodies the essence of the lyrics.” The track is just one of many collaborative efforts that are transforming Forever (Legendary Edition) into a celebration of resilience and friendship.
Following the release of Forever in June 2024, Jon underwent a grueling vocal cord surgery that prevented him from embarking on tours or promoting the album. Unable to hit the road, Jon turned to the extended family of musicians in the music industry, reshaping the fate of the record in the process.
“This album is more than a mere collection of collaborations,” Jon explained. “It’s a product of necessity. My vocal cord surgery and subsequent recovery were well-documented, and while I could record in the studio, touring remained out of reach. So, unable to tour, I reached out to some friends for assistance. They are all exceptional singers, artists, and above all, extraordinary individuals. The result is an album with a fresh perspective and renewed spirit, a collaborative effort that exemplifies the notion that we all rely on support from our friends.”
Forever (Legendary Edition) features a lineup of guest collaborations that offer a diverse and rich musical experience. From the anthemic opener, Red, White And Jersey, to the heartfelt duet with Robbie Williams on We Made It Look Easy, each track on the album showcases a unique partnership that infuses new life into Bon Jovi’s sound.
The album also includes collaborations with other music legends such as James Bay, Jelly Roll, Jason Isbell, Ryan Tedder, Billy Falcon, The War And Treaty, Joe Elliott, Avril Lavigne, Marcus King, Bruce Springsteen, and Carin León. Each collaboration brings a distinct flavor and energy to the album, adding depth and texture to the overall listening experience.
Forever (Legendary Edition) is a testament to gratitude, creativity, and camaraderie, serving as a tribute to resilience and unity in the face of adversity. Jon sums up the essence of the album by stating, “I feel immense joy and gratitude in releasing this album, and I believe it shines through in the music. There’s a greater purpose beyond the individual, and that purpose is collective.”
The highly-anticipated Forever (Legendary Edition) will be available to fans on 24 October 2025, marking a milestone in Bon Jovi’s illustrious career.
