Albums, which one do u prefer & why?

I have 2 ...but my favorite is

These Days because I love the lyrics and I think the music is perfectly fitting the lyrics and the atmosphere of the whole cd ... This album talks to me so much ... for me TD is a masterpiece ... the ultilmate (serious ) Bon Jovi

(Keep The Faith is my second choice but doesn't count I edited this post ... just GREAT rock songs ... well not much to say the cd is perfect ...

I am not surprised those 2 are my fav .. from the 90's era ...)

Keep the Faith is my favorite. It's the strongest lyrically. I love all the vocals and think it's one of their strongest musically.

New Jersey is 2nd because it's the CD that made me a Bon Jovi fan, so it has that sentimental value. I love all the songs on it.

I totally second that!! damn that's a good album...

You all probably know what my favorite album is. I've gushed about it so much. Ah, what the heck, I'll gush some more.

For those of you who don't know, my favorite album is Bounce. I like it because it was my first album- the album that made me a true fan. I like that it has variety. OK, so it may have one too many love songs, but other than that, I think it's a well-balanced album. It's not too dark, but it's not over-the-top happy either. I also like Bounce because it's a very visual album. When I hear the music, I can see a movie playing out in my mind. Being a visual person, I find this very inspiring.

My second favorite album is New Jersey. This is a close to perfect as you can get. I think that even though it's not my favorite, it's the band's best album. I love Jon's vocal work and the other members have pretty complex parts as well. I also like that no two songs are alike on the album. Well, maybe Ride Cowboy Ride is a little like Stick to Your Guns, but I think of RCR as more of an intro than a song by itself. All in all, it's a great album. Who doesn't like New Jersey?

My favourite album is These Days. I didn't like it too much when I first bought it since the only song I knew from it was Something For The Pain, but it quickly became my favourite. The music, lyrics and the melodies are beautiful. I like that you can hear people talking in between tracks. It sounds almost natural. For me, the album sounds even better when you listen to it with headphones. You hear a lot of little things such as melodies that you normally miss when listening to it on a stereo system.

NEW JERSEY - its fun, it has powerful guitars, richie's guitar works is amazing on this album. it has jon's greatest vocals, it has 1 ballad and its one their bests ever. and it has a song called Blood on blood on it.

These Days - The lyrics are amazing and I just love the sound and the darkness of the album. Loved it from the first moment I heard it and it is one of the few albums where I love every single song.

3 words, Keep The Faith.
i don't think there's an album on my cd collection that I have listened to more than this one. You want guitar? this has some of Richies best and more varied work ever. Jon's vocals are better on this album than on any other, Bob Rock did know how to produce this band!!!!Not over produced but no garage style st. anger production.Ballads, one of their most powerfull is in here called Bed of Roses, containing one of Richies most majestic solos. This album even has Metal (If I was Your Mother!!!)
man I could go on and on and on and on but I won't as my hands hurt and I have to go.

New Jersey!! I just love all songs on it, and i don't think there's much more i could say. if i could chose a second one would be these days as it was my first bon jovi album (my first album ever actually :P) and i never really gave it much attention till some years back when i got more into the band, and listening closer, it's simply beautiful and very meaningful, love it!

KTF - by the proverbial.

The first time I heard BJ was on radio [Bad Name] and was hooked from the start. Loved SWW and NJ...but it was KTF that 'turned' me into a 'for life' fan.

I can not put a definitive finger on what precisely makes that album the 'shining' one...other than to say, it is the sound track of my life...right there in the words, the music. All of Bon Jovi's albums make me happy to listen to [yes...including TLFR], but I get a real sense of enjoyment from the beginning of KTF to the end. It's the one BJ album where I know every little nuance on it. For me it is their finest moment...These Days has some amazing lyrics and very beautiful music, but KTF [for me] does not miss a beat.
On a subconscious level, I think too, that this album is my fav. because it flew straight in the face of the critics, who had them done and dusted.
