Never Say Goodbye was a big thing here back in the 80s.

Always was a big thing all over the world, but damn everyone knows this song here, even if you never heard of the band (is that even possible?), together with IBTFY following the same thought.

Skipping the 90s, Thank You for Loving Me was huge, HUGE here in Brazil (because it was in a soap opera, it happens a lot).

It's my life was a hit too, the videoclip of these two songs were on MTV all the time.

Moving foward, Misunderstood was, the way I see it, the biggest hit Bon Jovi had here after 2000. Yep, soap opera. But really, it was everywhere, all the time (remember back in 98 when My Heart Will Go On was playing every corner you turned? Yes, like this) ... even very famous brazilian bands covered Misunderstood in their shows.

Everyday and Say it isn't so were a thing here too, but not as big as Misunderstood.

Anyway, these are some of the songs they could play to please us here, but I'm sure they won't be on the setlist... I can dream tho.
I've met a lot of girls here in my home town (Belo Horizonte) who are crazy about All About Loving You.
