I know this may have been discussed before but I thought we may aswell add another poll to the list. What's the best single to be released first from an album in your opinion bearing in mind the muscial genre at the time, and how important it was to the band?


From a personal point of view, the most important singles were:

- Bad Name, because it catapulted Bon Jovi to fame and success, although most of the other tracks on SWW may have done the same. It's a really catchy song and sounds great on the first listen, but it's not my favourate song now because it can get a little boring after a while.

- Keep The Faith, because after rumors that Bon Jovi were finished it proved to the world that they were back, and back in style with a much more mature style of rock music. The KTF single features a funky bass riff, a great guitar solo and sharp vocals from Jon. One of my fave tracks ever.

- It's My Life, because Bon Jovi are back again with huge success and established a whole new audience (younger generation, like myself), as well as pleasing the fans of old. Good catchy rock song, that still sounds great after listening to it a hundred times or more.


What I believe to be the best first single is Keep The Faith. I think it really proved that Bon Jovi were a great rock band, and although the other singles played a part it's one of my personal favourate, and one of the most important songs in Bon Jovi's history.


So what do you guys think?
