This stuff tends to be slightly more raw than when Desmond Child or any other writer is present. They could never have written songs like Living on a Prayer without Desmond. At the same with him time they could never have written songs like Wanted Dead or Alive.

Song writers were used the least by Jovi in the 90s; Keep the Faith and These Days. I think in the that period Jon and Richie were very creative and inspired. In the 80s they used more songwriters and then again post 2000.
