It seems that I'm in minority because I really liked Crush. For me Crush and New Jersey are the best BJ albums.
About Bounce:
+
experimental and conventional at the same time
finally someone re-discovered that orchestra fits not only slow ballads but also faster songs (The Distance, Love Me Back To Life)
great lyrics (especially Undivided and Open All Night - this last one honestly shows the process of falling in love)
-
the album is very short
Richie is in the background, there are very few of his fantastic guitar solos on this CD
the title track is 50 - 60% the same as It's my life
All in all: Bon Jovi have good and perfect albums. Bounce is a good one.
