I don't think there's any over-rated Bon Jovi song... Some are just over-played so you don't enjoy to listen to them anymore, but they are still good...
Well, I don't understand how anyone can say "She Don't Know Me" is one of best songs on "Bon Jovi" and "Bells Of Freedom" on "Have A Nice Day", but you can still like them...

"Bad Medicine" and "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" live. I'm so tired of these songs live. The change in the chorus in both songs, ruins it in my oppinion. And Bad Medicine is played too slow and too low. Oh! and the last verse after the solo, live, is another factor of ruining the song -.- I don't like it.

Also, the acoustic version of "Livin' On A Prayer"... I don't understand what's so good about it. It's damn boring.

I agree with everything there.

As much as I love "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" live, I have to agree that "Bad Medicine" is often played in kinda boring way. But on Jersey and Faith tours it had balls and was done with the same energy as on the album. Richie should always play the solo with whammy-bar part Yeah, on Jersey tour it was really cool.

The good thing about acoustic version of "Livin' On A Prayer" is the soul it has. Jon's vocals are very emotional. And Richie's licks. I love when he takes solos on acoustic. And the power of chorus... When Jon and Richie are singin' together it's pure magic to me

Oh yeah! It was just fantastic on "New Jersey" tour. On "Faith" tour it was okay, but doesn't compares to the Jersey tour. Richie, Dave's and even Alec vocals on that one was just awesome. My favorite performance of it is clearly the one from Tokyo 1988 from the new years eve

Mine are probably:

Have A Nice Day
Born To Be My Baby(Acoustic '89)
Any Other Day

i love any other day i cant see why you say is over rated anyway...

over rated songs for me are

"Keep the faith" nothing special

"Never say goodbye" nice music, i dont like the lyrics

"Wanted dead or alive" its ok live, but it bores me to tears on studio version

"Its my life" could have been a great song with a better and longer guitar solo
