Bon Jovi Revisited

Since 1983, Bon Jovi (Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, David Bryan and Tico Torres) has become one of the biggest international rock groups. With 100 million albums sales already behind them, Bon Jovi launches its latest oeuvre This Left Feels Right, featuring acoustic interpretations of the group’s greatest hits.

Produced by music industry veteran, Pat Leonard (Madonna, Rod Stewart, Elton John, etc…), the album reworks each song giving them a rich acoustic base with a country/ jazz feel.

They just keep rounding it up, because I can't believe TLF has sold over 1 million copies. I will be surprised if it ever sells over 1 million copies!

Sorry, I find that very hard to believe. In every Country it's plummeted down the charts after 1 week of release - it only sold 77 odd thousand in the US in it's first week, and that's the biggest market in the World. And they didn't say they had sold over 100 million BEFORE TLFR came out - I believe the figure was around 98 million.

Everyone seems to forget that the old albums are constantly selling more and more copies everyday...Crossroad is still in the top 40 Rock albums chart, and I'm sure that the others are still adding to the total...not just TLFR.

Thomas has a point. SWW is one that continues to sell also.

For Bon Jovi the biggest market is Europe.

And no one really knows how many albums they've sold, either before or after TLFR, although I'd've thought it'd be around about 100 million. Don't care much though, lol.

Journalists quote from 32million - 100million. I'd wait for the official word.
