Hmm well i'd say Last Man Standing is a little overrated. I mean it's a catchy song with good lyrics but even still, there are better Bon Jovi songs than Last Man Standing.

In These Arms- I fail to see why people like this song. It's a pretty cheesy, thoughtless love song that only did well because it's Jon Bon Jovi asking you to be in his arms. It lacks any of the artistic talent that Always, Bed of Roses, or other 90s love songs had.

Blood on Blood- Don't get me wrong, it's a solid song. Just far from the band's best. It fit the time period i guess, but it doesn't particularly do anything to stand out either IMO.

Most of Slippery When Wet- It deserves the acclaim it receives, because three of the band's biggest songs are from it. But honestly, I couldn't care less about the rest of the album (other than Let it Rock, which is a good opener). I laugh when anyone tells me it's the band's best album.

The Distance- Why the hell do people like this boring, trite song? Most of us will agree Bounce sucks excepts a few songs, but this is certainly not one of the exceptions. Undivided, Hook Me Up, and the title track are light years ahead of this turd.

I disagree. I guess I'm a sap to cheesy songs, but it is my all-time favorite song.

I completely agree! It's sort of like MJ's Thriller.... it's a singles album... Prayer, Bad Name, Wanted, Never Say Goodbye and Let It Rock, but there rest do nothing for me.

I wouldn't call this a turd, but it is not on the top half best songs on Bounce.... which is saying something.

Slippery definitely deserves the acclaim it has recieved, and isnt over-rated. Its a great collection of well written, solid, stand out hits. Musically/lyrically, not the bands best, but theres just no filler in it, its great.

Talking of filler, I think that latter half of HAND is all the same, its all quite over-rated and does nothing for me at all. I used to think this about Crush, but its grown on me quite alot.

You cant say bad things about Bounce, its genius XD
