Jon Bon Jovi has teamed with exiled Iranian singer Andy Madadian to record a cover version of the Ben E. King classic, "Stand By Me" as a show of solidarity to the Iranian people in light of the country's controversial recent election. Co-producer and bassist on the song, Don Was, reported that the session took just four hours. Was had originally gone in to record the song with just Madadian. When they arrived to record the song, they found Bon Jovi, guitarist Richie Sambora and John Shanks, who's producing their next album, sitting outside and having lunch. "They asked what we were doing, I told them, and Jon said, 'Look, man, if you do it right now we'll do it with you,' " Was recalls. "So we did." Madadian -- who's lived in the U.S. since the Iranian revolution of 1979 -- and Bon Jovi duet on the song, with both men singing the first verse in Farsi. Sambora plays a guitar solo, with Was on bass, Patrick Leonard on keyboards and Jeff Rothchild on drums. There is a video making the rounds that is basically hust still and clips from the four-hour session. See it below.
