Kind of sounds like the rest of their most recent stuff, so its kind of meh. Not bad but not a milestone release.

My god these guys suck.

shot thru the heart

Song sounds like a U2 ripoff for some reason. Bon Jovi is still pretty awesome.

better not be country,...

these guys will never top It's My Life

So, (I can't access the song right now) are they still going with the country sound?

they're still trying? jeeeeez.

I fucking love Living On A Prayer.

as much as I hate to see bands break up sometimes it is best to know when to call it a day

they should have stopped way before

This brings the lulz. Amirite? High five?

how many people still listen to bon jovi

Enough to make all their albums go platinum. Idiot

well on one hand, yes they should have stopped LONG ago, as they have been putting out bland, annoying, and just plain bad music for decades. basically they just make me cringe.

on the other hand, due to the alarmingly hideous music taste of most people, Bon Jovi is somehow world-famous and held in high regard. the guys grow several million dollars richer with every album they release. so in that context, why in hell would they stop now?

'Enough to make all their albums go platinum. Idiot'

reworded

are bon jovi at all relevant today

Song rules. Chorus reminds me of "Born To Be My Baby."

are bon jovi at all relevant today

Maybe their albums suck a bit these days. But they are still a good live band.

mediocre rock bands across the decades

70s = journey
80s = bon jovi
90s = korn
00s = nickelback

and its 2009

Love them or hate them, you can't fault a band for staying this relevant for nearly 30 years.

For crying out loud. How many of your mothers wants to bone Jon Bon Jovi?

Not gonna listen to this, they only have a few songs worth listening to, some of them are overplayed too.

fucking lame retire with some dignity

Being a fanboy and defending everything Bon Jovi does will not hide the fact their quality of music has diminished. I would rather sell a certain number of copies of the best album ever rather than sell millions of album that are total shit.

This is real music, played with conviction by a master of his craft. Bon Jovi constantly reinvents himself, which is more than you can say about the shitty bands that get praised so much on this site.

Regardless of whether he's relevant or not, he still puts on great live shows. Man's still got some pipes.

And, of course, I'm biased since we share the same origin in the Great State of New Jersey. Him and Bruce are our only real claims to fame.

Crossroad was the only album of there's I could really stand. Took all of their best moments and put it all in one.

band is pretty awful tbh

But he's so handsome

"Kids could be listening to a lot worse than Bon Jovi tbh"

and they are, how about terrible groups such as Boys Like Girls and 3OH!3. kids rarely have taste in actual music anymore. not to say the Bon jovi's new stuff is much better.

^ hey i do! though ur completely right.

I can't wait to hear a 50 year old woman shreik this out at a karaoke bar.

Oh cheer up, Bfhurricane, you have so much more than Bon Jovi and Bruce Springsteen, you also have Jon Stewart, Jersey Mike's, organs being sold on the black market by politicians and rabbis, and that show about psycho housewives.

Am I the only one who thinks the microphone on the album cover is a little unfortunately placed. Or maybe just right for Bon Jovi.

I agree with Teddy Picker!

But shit this is terrible music.

They should have gone out in style during the late 80's or 90's. But yet, they plague us with their new style shitty music

"mediocre rock bands across the decades

They were not mediocre....there were plenty of other bands that would fit your example....."Livin' On A Prayer" is a 80's, and I dare say, a timeless classic. They can't be compared to Nickelback
