Default Bounce - worst BJ album so far!

But before you start complaining "fans like you will never be satisfied etc.":
I found this out by a very serious method.
I made it like in school. When I want to know my avarage mark in a subject I count all marks together and devid it through the number of written tests. Now I give every song on every album a mark and devid it through the number of songs on it's album. This is the result:

(for USA: A=1; B=2; C=3 etc.)

Bon Jovi

basically, it proves nothing...before, it was your opinion that Bounce sucks..its STILL your opinion, only now, you show why you hate it..keep in mind, not everyone would rate the previous songs the way you rated them, so it all depends on personal prefrence. you gave "save the world" a 6..i would have given it a 3. so even there, a persons choice makes it differnt..plus different albums have a differnt number of songs

If you are taking the mean average, then the amount of songs doesn't affect the overall score. The only thing that matters is the score for each song. Get an education.

This is the saddest collection of people I've ever encountered. If you actually had the time to compile your little scorecard, you have way too much time on your hands... and if you have so much time on your hands, might I suggest finding a hobby... even if it's a band you want to follow as it is abundantly clear that Bon Jovi do not live up to your demands. (P.S. anyone who actually is lending their 2 cents about the statistical merits of above-mentioned nonsensical rating system is giving this post way more attention and credit than deserved.)

OMG It's the BJ Police!!!!!!!!! If BJ are back in school can I PLEASE sit up back with Tico?? I'll be good - ok I won't be.

I love Bounce. Music is a matter of opinion. I don't agree with your scores.
