Yeah, I Want You kinda became my unnoficial anthem when I broke up with my girlfriend....it was pretty good actually, I had my Instant Messenger screen name as "I never wanted the stars, never shot for the moon, I liked them right where they are, all I wanted was you", and about 76 girls (including my ex girlfriend) said "aw, thats such a nice name"! So, instant girl magnet! Great! Anyway, as a song, first I really liked it, then I thought it wasn't so great.....now I really like it again!

Keep On Rockin'

That's a great ballad and I really look forward to hearing it when I am listening to the Keep The Faith album. That's a song I wish I could have wrote, and sung to a girl I know. It means a lot to me.

I love the song. I even like Billy Hoffman's version of it too.

I could not agree more...I have loved the song from the first time I heard it....it would be awesome to hear them sing this live...sort of the way they did that acoustic set in Yokohama in 1996. The song is one of those 'gems' that all albums seem to have, especially Jovi albums. One day I'll get the radio station here to take a walk on the wild side, step outside the square and play an album track of theirs [this one is right at the top along with a few others that are 'rippers']

This song is so underrated...the lyrics are very moving and the way Jon sings it
