As do I, because it's fun (and I rarely get to say 'eat me, lady' when I really, really want to *g*).
Yeah. Jon and Richie together are just awsome and I would never, ever want that to change. As singing partners, those two were, uh, made for each other.
I think as soloists though, Richie wins my ear. Jon sounds too raw in the throat for me on too many songs (Blaze of Glory was the exception) on his solo albums to really appreciate it. Whenever a guy's voice starts to get too much growl/grate to it (or he starts yelling rather than singing, which Jon tends to do sometimes), I start wincing, because I can hear the damage he's doing to his vocal cords. Richie doesn't force himself that way.
