You had the tailor made for fist pumping in arenas-opener, the cowboy song, the summer anthem (Wild In The Streets & 99 In The Shade) and the "I still love you girl"-ballad, and the uptempo track with lots of open string action (Homebound Train & Raise Your Hands). That's more than half of Slippery.
It was the same formula. No shame in it.

I still don't agree.
You are basically describing a standard Bon Jovi sound and formula that goes with every album.... Plus take into consideration the times (80's) so yes, there are some obvious similarities.
But.... If you take ALL the songs from each album, especially the demos, and compare them, they are not the same. I don't see or hear a sequel to Slippery in New Jersey.
