The deadline to vote on the first round is Sunday, Jan. 24, 11:59 p.m. ET. The second round begins Monday, Jan. 25, when the list will be narrowed down to the top three songs and fans may again vote at www.cbs.com/grammys for which hit song the band should perform as part of their segment. Voting will continue until Bon Jovi's performance on THE 52nd ANNUAL GRAMMY AWARDS on Jan. 31.

Music fans can also participate in this year's show by uploading a 20-second video of themselves singing along to a portion of The Black Eyed Peas' "I Gotta Feeling" for a chance to have their video appear as part of the Peas' performance on Music's Biggest Night.
