Stay and You Can't Loose at Love are both better songs than Thank You For Loving Me, She's a Mystery, All About Loving You, and Open All Night. The ballads they've put on CDs since 2000 have left a lot to be desired. They're so fluffy one could cough up hairballs after listening.

JAVIER WROTE : did I miss something did Def Leppard get a great public reaction from "Long way to go"???
Did X get a great public reaction at all??


I know it didn't match the charts but what i meant was that if bon jovi would have released this song it would have been simply HUGE....
i think you know better than me that with no promotion even jesus christ wouldn't sell nothing.....

They should have relased 'Dry County', I know its a bit long, but maybe they could have condensed it slightly. Im not sure if 'Wild is the Wind' is a ballad, but i think they should've definitely released that... was 'My Guitar lies....' ever released? if not...WHY!!

Default ballads

'Stay' : Why was this never on an album?

I used to think 'King of the Mountain' was the worst Bon Jovi song ever written but then I heard the most recent ballads!!
'Thank You for Loving Me' and 'She's a Mystery' are just dire!!!

'Hard Letting You Go' is the most atmospheric BJ song ever written - what a waste - but then lets not get started about These Days again!!!

BINGO thread over.

I have never once written a song about a girl I've been out with for the sole reason that it's too hard to write a love song when you're content and that's including my current girlfriend I've been with for over 2 years.

when the shit hits the fan the songs start pouring out but when you're sitting there feelign smug about everything being fine then you can't write a good love song even if you try.
