Some of the following are my favorite covers of other artists' songs as done by Jon or Jon and Richie.
Hope you enjoy!
Willy DeVille and Jon Bon Jovi – Save The Last Dance For Me
Really love this song.
Try A Little Tenderness
Cuts off at the very end, but oh those 3:13 seconds until it does.
Bon Jovi & Steven Tyler 1989
Two of my favorites! Jon and Steven.
Jon & Richie – Can’t Help Falling In Love With You
Too short! More please!
Jon & Richie – Imagine
Thought this was just beautiful.
Jon & Richie – Here Comes The Sun
Again, so gorgeous!
How many did I miss?

You missed DOZENS :)
Some of my favorites:
Mrs Robinson Richie and Jon: two guitars, two voices. Does it get any better than that?
Drift Away Done several times in the 90's in concert; this is one of my all-time favorite songs anyway, and I've appropriated it as my own personal letter to the guys...
The Wind Cries Mary Richie sings the blues. Panty-wetting every time I hear it. It literally gives me chills...
House of the Rising Sun I hated this song in general because it was the first thing my brother learned to play on the guitar, and I'd hear it for HOURS on end :) The Jovi version? I don't hate at all...
Here Comes The Sun Acoustic with Richie. Pretty much my phrase in all the English language :)
Midnight Rider Richie did this often during his solo run. When he starts "I gotta ruuuuuun to keep from hidin'..." I just wanna die at his feet.
Some other classics I absolutely adore:
Lean on Me
Abraham, Martin, and John
Knockin' on Heaven's Door
Imagine
Eve of Destruction
Shooting Star
Lola
Silvia's Mother
Suspicious Minds
Sympathy for the Devil
Shit, I could go on and on and on. My "covers" playlist on my iPod is 220+ long (of course I have several versions of some songs, like Fever and Midnight Rider lol) but still; it's one of my favorite playlists when I want to hear Bon Jovi but not "their" stuff.

Thanks Hath - There are literally thousands of youtubes for Bon Jovi and if you don't KNOW what song they covered, it makes searching a leetle difficult!
This is a good list to start with!
One of my all-time favorite covers is Have a Little Faith in Me which I was blessed to see live in Minnesota a few tours back. Absolutely sensational!
Hath mentioned Sylvia's Mother, but along with so many favorite covers they've done is My Funny Valentine.
They did it on the Today show I believe.
Dear Gawd...I need a panty change everytime I hear that.
