Still perplexed by people's criticism of The Circle. The best lyrics since These Days, the closest sound to 'traditional' Bon Jovi (stuff like Superman Tonight could have been on New Jersey) and some awesome guitar solos that have been missing in the post 2000 years.

It makes Crush, Bounce and most of Nice Day irrelevant to me. Proper Bon Jovi.

Yes, Jon's voice is not what it was - but I think they have made the best record they could have made in 2009, couldn't say that when Bounce, Crush and Nice Day came out.
