Awesome Link - Songs Bon Jovi Wrote

Sorry for another spin off topic but this is a great link and I don't what this to be missed.

This is a link provided by The Songwriters Hall Of Fame, of all songs Bon Jovi wrote. I think LH was the last update. There are some really cool unreleased titles.

Diamond Rug?

Why is Jon credited as "Bon Jovi" or "Jon Bon Jovi" for some and "John Bongiovi" for others? Even the LH songs are credited to John Bongiovi. Weird.

I noticed that too about Jons name. I still haven't gone through the entire list yet.


And I also wonder who put this together. And how does a song become credited? There are demos listed on here and I'm curiousy to know how and why they made the cut.

Huge amount of typos on that list. And this can't be true:

NEXT 100 YEARS
Writer: Bob Rock, John Bongiovi, Richard Sambora

Publisher: Aggressive Music/Sony ATV Tunes LLC/Bon Jovi Publishing/Universal Polygram International

Interesting! I wonder if there is a completed version?

RUMBLE IN THE HOUSE
Writer: Patrick Leonard, John Bongiovi, Richard Sambora

Even more interesting:

SLIPPERY WHEN WET
Writer: Desmond Child, John Bongiovi, Richard Sambora

So this is pretty much everything that I'm not familiar with. There is a bunch of stuff missing from the list though. The Box-Set tunes, Soundtrack stuff, Sex Sells songs, etc.
