They hit 100million just before or just after TLFR so if they were on 92million before bounce then you would expect about 6.5 mill counting in the back catalog and anything tlfr sold before they hit it.

Dont know if I want to believe that. I think the reason they hit the 100 million is that records like slippery and new jersey continues to sell everytime BJ comes out with a new album. Every new fan wants to hear what they sounded like in the eighties...And I remebered that Bounce hit nr. 2 on the billboard, but they only stayed there for one week. The best position in europa was at nr. 3 for one week. And if Bounce had been a huge success they would had written it on the official site I think? Evertime they mention Crush they always write that It sold 8 million or something.
But I really dont know

Ok for a start bounce went to no2 in the uk. So you were wrong in that fact and your also wrong in the rest.

It already got platinum in the beginning of November 2002, just a few weeks after its release, with more than 600.000 sold copies.

It's common that if a record doesn't sell as well as the last one it's considered a flop.
But Bon Jovi's standards, are a bit different.

Bounce didn't sell 6.5 m. copies worldwide!!

The album sold 3m. copies by the end of February 2003. I think that it's at 3.5m. copies now and with lucky near to 4 millions copies.

TLFR has sold 320,000 copies on US according to Soundscan and 1m. worldwide.
