Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere's Johnny?

Johnny is a dude that shows up in a lot of soungs. Is he like the archtypical American man? I'm guessing he is. Anywho, name the songs you remember him from.

Tourniquet - Acid Head
Bon Jovi - Living On A Prayer
Judas Priest - Johnny B Goode

Who's to Blame - Sacred Reich ("Oh my god it's Johnny, hanging by his neck, all those metal albums have led him to his death")

Johnny's Back - RIOT
Jacknife Johnny - ALICE COOPER

Johnny shows up in Bad Company's Shooting Star, it was all over for Johnny once he heard his first Beatles song, 'Love Me Do' I believe it was.

Thin Lizzy - Johnny
Thin Lizzy - Johnny The Fox Meets Jimmy The Weed

Don't forget Black Sabbath sang about their own ill fated Johnny in 'Johnny Blade'

King's X - Johnny (from Black Like Sunday)

That wonderful hetro r & b band El Debarge asked 'Where's Johnny?'

Let's forget X's sordid tale of 'Johnny Hit and Run Paulene'

I don't know where Johnny is, but is someone calling Steven? "Steven...Steven...is someone calling me? No."

...that icy breath it whispers screams of pain....

Bon Jovi - Living On A Prayer

That's Tommy...not Johnny.

Is Tommy related to Johnny?

Not by blood, but I think they rented an apartment together in the 80s.

It's just a generic name of a ficitional character ... probably the least creative male protagonist name in all of fiction.

I think SEVEN WITCHES had a song called "Johnny". I rest my case.

Thanks for clearing that up...I was beginning to worry.

Josie Cotton - Johnny Are You Queer?

I of course only know the Screeching Weasel version.
