I love this song. It's one of my favorites. The vocals are fantastic!

sounded like one song instead of the (now) obvious 2

In These Arms... my second favourite Bon Jovi song of all time! (only beaten by Livin' on a Prayer).

When KTF came out and was reviewed in Kerrang! (when it was a good mag) they said that In These Arms would help Bon Jovi sell 5 million copies alone of their comeback album.

Great song and a great choice as single.

Smile David on vocals

I think the real question should be which version does everyone prefer?

I think David sings this better than Jon, I wish he would sing more often when they play live- actually I wish Richie (and even Tico) would sing more often too

Do you keep track when they've done them both? I heard them at the tour finale at Giants in '06

I don't. I know they played ITA in OWN tour, Bounce tour and HAND tour, BUT not in the shows I went to. That pissed me off.

Great song. I've heard Dave perform it live but haven't heard his studio version of the song. I'd much rather hear them do this one acoustically than Saturday Night or Something for the Pain.

Im sure I remember it getting a crap review from Kerrang or was that TD?

For me, ITA will always hold a special place - whenever I listen to it im 14 again wearing out KTF cassette! The video, although just a live performance is great too. Def contributed to making me a fan
