Default I dont understand Bon Jovi sometimes!

why the hell is radio saved my life tonight NOT on any of their albums! it is such an amazing song and is one of my favs at the moment.

also i heard that lost highway is their next single...well it aint gonna go anywhere in europe so why not have any other day or broken, which are obviously gonna be more successful!!??

its all quite frustrating really, they just seem to shoot themselves in the foot all the time.

because this song is too weak. Starting AOAgain, Billy ecc are better better than Radio SMLTonight.

Yes. RSMLT is not bad song but not as good as Starting AOA or Billy . Of course it's only MY opinion.

Oh hell yeah, TRSMLT sounds awesome- if it was released, it would have been a huge success. Billy?? What the ****? STUUUPPPIIDD song!

You fans have to understand that musicians are perfectionists.

Of course, some great songs are taken from the the final edits of albums. I've heard some wonderful unreleased material from the likes of Eminem, Prince and Michael Jackson that I can't seem to understand why they're not put on proper albums.

Just be thankful that we were given a Box-Set in 2004

I don't think so

And this song was relased with 9 others songs on the special CD Sinlgle. In my country I hav heard some songs from this single-set but I didn't heard TRSMLTonight.

Ok. Maybe it's not great song (but better than RSMLTonight) but Save A Prayer or Starting AOA are definitely better and they are both great songs.

You gotta understand that they donīt choose the singles, the record company does, they own the band.

1.Radio is a decent song, and it's on the box set. There are lots of other songs that were never released on studio albums: Love is War, Edge of a Broken Heart, Good Guys..., etc.

2.Starting All Over Again...original version is great. Box set version sounds like shit.

3.Billy - It's OK, but not a good single choice.

4.Everybody's Broken would absolutely TANK at radio. If a Bon Jovi songs sucks to it's fans, which this one does to many of them, what chance does it have at radio?

5.If anyone thinks the band has no say in what songs get released as singles, you're wrong. This isn't some 20 year old brand new band on the block. JBJ was a lot of say in what happens with this band. More than anyone else at the record company does. How else would you explain I'll Sleep When I'm Dead getting released? It tanked as a single, yet the band insists on playing it at every show.
