I'm not bothered about where they chart over here...as far as I'm concerned it means nothing!!
Just my opinion.
Very true!

So many negative comments about Say It Isn't So. I really like the song, particularly the play on the vocals. It along with One Wild Night, Just Older, and It's My Life were the best songs off Crush.

Even though I like "Misunderstood" I think it's a big mistake to release it as the next single. The should either put "Undivided", "Bounce" or "Hook me up" on the music market 'cause IMO these songs have a bigger chance to become no 1 hits.

I think either The Right Side Of Wrong or Undivided should be realised as the next single, but I doubt these two will ever be released. It's too bad, but we all have our favourates, and I suppose we have to accept the fact that we all can't be happy.

Geez, why you all getting so worked up? This won't be the last single off Bounce- the other songs will have their chance too.

Keep On Rockin'

I agree with Becky. The rest of you bore me.


And I'm an American. Proud of it.. (to the one who started this thread)..

And guess what, BON JOVI, THE BAND, are American as well. That's why Richie wore the American flag, other than..let's say...the U.K flag..or something like that.

That's why the Oompas always assume questions are being asked about the U.S when not specified otherwise. Bon Jovi are an American rock band. Get over it.

What about that Nelly and Kelly duet called Dilema... it has to be one of the most ANNOYING songs ever recorded with that repetitive "Oh" in the background,
You're damn right, that 'Oh' is making me come incredibly close to going on a mad rampage

I think to realease "Misunderstood is really a mistake.

First single a rock track with "Everyday".

Second single another rock track (Bounce, Undivided, Hook me up) woulbe a great possibility to show the critics "look here, Bon Jovi is a rock band again!!"

If they release "misunderstood" the critics AND the public will say "look at them : they call themself a rock band but they are only ballad softies!"

Hey jedijovi7 are you a Star Wars geek too? Anyway, I think Misunderstood is a song a lot of people can relate to and I see some very cute video possibilities. Also in the USA after a stong start on the rock stations Everyday seems to have disappeared. And I think that it may be a little too hard rock for the Hot AC format because I hardly hear it on those type of stations either. Misunderstood should pick up that format again in the States. I think they should follow this one with another rocker though to keep their visibility on the rock charts as well. In the USA rock radio ignored It's My Life and Crush.

I agree with Aly, whatever the next single is it will make no difference over here, as it will NEVER be played. So just for them to get into the charts is a major achievement.

Personally, although Hook Me Up and Undivided are my favourite tracks I think Misunderstood will be a great single.
