The Buzzfeed article made that statement. And its author apparently doesn't believe that Bon Jovi should be "connected" to elite talent like Aretha Franklin, Elton John, and Qunicy Jones in any way. So rather than admit that their version is just as good, a theory is concocted that the song is "impossible" to "ruin."
It's like when a keyboard magazine was attacked for putting Dave on its cover -- people wrote in that a member of Bon Jovi didn't belong in the company of "serious musician"-type "real" keyboardists. But do you think for one second they would have reacted that way if Dave were a member of Rush or Queensryche or Nine Inch Nails or Guns N Roses?
