I'd like to hear the Bon Jovi version of this. It is a pop song but that could have been a better first single than 'Because We Can.' It's nowhere near what we want but I think it's alright and could have been an alright song to listen too.

Thanks for the link.

Yep, sounds exactly like the last few Bon Jovi albums.

Too bad they didn't include this on WAN, this is more "rock" than anything on it. Still, not a great song by any means.

Yeah, I think so, too. Just sounds too much like Tico (or the same drum computer they've used for the last couple of albums ). Also would've fit nicely on WAN from a sound/production standpoint...

The bridge really gives away the Bon Jovi connection.

Not sure about it being the original BJ demo, though. The opening with the echoy piano keys sounds a little off for the last couple of BJ albums.

The song is nothing special, but who knows what it could've been with some rewriting.

Chicks got more rasp and emotion in her voice than Jon could wish for.

Sounds like a below average pop song that would be put on a movie soundtrack and never heard again.

I really like the lyrics,but I dislike the pop sound that this track has. A young Jon and Richie could've taken these lyrics and turn this into a pretty good song,imo.

A younger Bon Jovi would have made something great of this track, but on WAN it woulld have been a watered down and completely forgettable song. What really gives it away as an original BJ-track is the stick right after the second chorus. Doesn't get more BJ than that (at least when comparing it to the albums from HAND and onwards).
