Country star Jennifer Nettles united with rock icon Bon Jovi for a killer duet that ignited the Daytona International Speedway. The rocker was first to appear on stage before the incredibly eager crowd, sporting a vintage, yellow jacket and showing off his phenomenal guitar skills.

As he kicked off the intro to their riveting tune “Who Says You Can’t Go Home”, Bon Jovi invited his duet partner Nettles on stage to take their fiery performance up a notch! The country singer was no shortage of energy and searing talent, as she interjected,

“Like a blind dog without a bone/ I was a gypsy lost in the twilight zone/ I hijacked a rainbow and crashed into a pot of gold.”

Fans were elated watching the two stars put on the performance of a lifetime! It seems that the race cars on the track weren’t the only things thrilling the crowd, as these two performers pulled off an experience that brought energy to a whole new track!

The Memorable Duo

The unique duet took the charts by storm, snagging the no.1 spot and holding an admirable reign. Originally intended as a duet with Keith Urban, Bon Jovi was adamant about performing the song with a female vocalist, eventually recording with Nettles. Bon Jovi’s solo version of the song was released on his 2005 album Have A Nice Day.
