Best Song Lyrics
I have enjoyed Savvi's album threads so much, I thought I'd give this a try. I think it would be interesting to see what we think Bon Jovi's best song lyrically is. Lyrical content is most subjective... should make for interesting discussion.
I will eventually poll it but I need our favorite 10 songs for the poll. So let's start by using the point system. Give me your top 5 (5 points to your favorite and so on). After a few days, I will tally the votes and make a poll.
Let's be clear on what we are voting on. Not your favorite song. Not your favorite lyrics to a chorus or bridge. This is your opinion as to what BJ song, in it's entirety, has the best lyrics. Pretend there is no music, only words on the page.
For instance, As My Guitar Lies Bleeding In My Arms is one of my favorite songs ever. The lyrics are very moving to me. But when really thinking about it, that is because it works so well with the music, atmosphere, and especially with Richie's guitar. The lyrics on the page, without the music, don't stand up on their own well. Thus, not making my list. Also, let's not use solo songs (sorry, no Santa Fe), but everything else is fair game.
