Jon Bon Jovi won the Golden Globe for Best Song From a Motion Picture for "Blaze of Glory." The song was written for the 1990 Western film "Young Guns II," starring Emilio Estevez as Billy the Kid.
"Blaze of Glory" served as the movie’s theme and became Jon Bon Jovi’s major solo project during a break from his band. He wrote the song after Estevez asked him to contribute music to the film. Its lyrics and dramatic arrangement reflect the movie’s outlaw-Western setting, while the accompanying soundtrack expanded the project into a solo album also titled "Blaze of Glory."
The award was presented at the 1991 Golden Globes, honoring the song from the previous year’s film releases. A possible source of confusion is Jon Bon Jovi’s later nomination for "Not Running Anymore," from the 2012 film "Stand Up Guys." That song was nominated but did not win; the Golden Globe victory was for "Blaze of Glory."
