Don't mind the song at all. It may not have aged as well as some of the others but it's no worse than many other good time Jovi party songs.

I'd happily hear it live over captain crash any day.

Talk to Jesus is one *not so hot* mess and the part with Heather puzzles me like many others here.

And different songs sound different when you're in a particular mood. Can't say I can't stand many BJ songs. Just a few exceptions to their fabulous catalogue! <3

It's obviously personal choice. I love Little Bit Of Soul, others might think it's filler.

Love me some lil bit of soul especially live from An Evening With and the handful of acoustic gigs back in 92. Richie made the song for me with the bluesy "soul yeahhhhhh" over and over at the end. https://youtu.be/QwPd-pUpYcM

Can say the same thing about Social Disease. How it could replace Edge of a Broken Heart, Borderline, Lonely is the Night, Deep Cuts the Knife etc. makes no sense. Both Raise Your Hands and Wild In the Streets are fun party songs, really is no need for another one in Social Disease.
This! Woman In Love and Social Disease are just utter crap...

Considering the other two, I guess it depends on the time of your life when you first heard the songs. For me, I was 15/16 at the time, and Blame It was the perfect soundtrack to my life. And my love with Bon Jovi, which my parents didn't really understand and thought it would just go away. Thus "They say it won't last, but they misunderstood" is one of my favorite lines ever Apart from that, it's just fun, good old rock'n'roll.

I Want You I think is also great and helped me a lot during heartache times (yeah, I always listen(ed) to the tragic/dark songs in those periods )

No, it's not "dark" per se, but I said tragic/dark, and it is kind of tragic. Maybe dark was the wrong word, but it's about loss, regrets, and can put you in a sort of "dark" mood, if you've just been left by your girlfriend...
