When it came out, TD was very big in Germany. I heard every single on the radio back then, even "Hey God"! The only songs that got stuck and still get some airplay from time to time are "This Ain't A Love Song" and "These Days".

Other BJ songs that I have heard on the radio the last few years were

- Bed Of Roses (regularly)
- Real Life (strangely enough, heard it a few times)
- Have A Nice Day (it was very big in 2005 and got some fair airplay in recent years)
- Make A Memory (it was very popular on the radio, but no wonder, a first new single always gets attention)
- Livin' On A Prayer
- Always
- Hard Times Come Easy (heard it 2 times, at least...)

Man, I had never heard Bed Of Roses on the radio before (thankfully, stupid song) but I was at a meal at the other day and I heard it play over the radio. I was in so much shock I actually wanted to listen to it, but I kept getting talked to Why did God attach mouths to girls?

If i'm not at home with DAB access i will usually listen to Absolute radio given the choice.
Over the 6 years i have been a Bon Jovi fan i have heard
-Prayer
-Bad Name
-Bed Of Roses
-Always
-I'll Be There For You
-Wanted Dead Or Alive
-It's My Life
-Bad Medicine

At work we used to have radio one all the time, which never plays anything older than 2 weeks, or by anyone over 30...but i did hear Prayer once in the Golden Hour thing Moyles did.

If i have DAB on i'll listen to The Arrow or Planet Rock. And i have heard much more variety of Jovi songs on these. Even heard Bells Of Freedom once

In last 3 years here in Croatia I heard:

Livin on a prayer(sometimes)
You give love a bad name
bad medicine
blaze of glory(it's not so often,but it's a well known song here too)
Always(heavy rotation)
In these arms(somewhat regular here on Open Radio)
keep the faith
bed of roses
it's my life(every now and then)
thank you for loving me(couple of times)
have a nice day(it was all over the radio and tv in 2005 and 2006)
who says you can't go home(sometimes)
welcome to wherever you are(once,in 2007 I think)
make a memory(frequent)
whole lot of leavin(heard it only once)
lost highway(frequent,and video is on tv regularly)

I think that's it

I think Perth radio is too busy playing Pink and Katy Perry to play Make a Memory... unlike Lost Highway and Leavin', I have never ever heard it on the radio, not even when the album first came out. I think the video has been on musicMAX but that's based in the eastern states.

Back in the day every single that was released off KTF was always on MTV every day on constantly.. I remember always having to sit through the full length version of Dry County the same time everyday when I got home from school.

Now I swtich on the music channels, yesterday I saw Runaway and alot of the time Hey God usually appears. Bed Of Roses was also on yesterday and I hear this one a fair bit on the radio as with In These Arms.

!!!!!! The station I listen to is ONLY 70's and 80's rock. But I heard "She Don't Know Me"...... It took me half the song to recognize it was Bon Jovi, because I hadn't heard the song in a while, and I listen to BJ live most of the time, and She Don't Know Me has never been played live... (I Think)
