My Rating of Bounce

Undivided - 10/10 (Mega)

Everyday - 7/10 (Fair enough, good single, naff Middle

The Distance - 8/10 (Cracking)

Joey - 4/10 (Only gets 4 on music and melody, lyrics are rubbish)

Misunderstood - 9/10 (Fantastic)

All About Lovin' You - 6/10 (Boring)

Hook Me Up - 9/10 (One of the best songs I've heard in a while)

Right Side Of Wrong - 1/10 (Pathetic...)

Love Me Back To Life -6/10 (Decent)

You Had Me From Hello - 6/10 (Sort of boring but catchy)

Bounce - 7/10 (Would have scored higher if it had not been a IML rip off)

Open All Night - 2/10 (Should close around 8pm)

Just my opinion....feel free to add your own rating.

I gotta say on the whole I agree with you, but the three above are the stand out tracks from Bounce for me.

I love the lyrics and music for Joey and RSOW and I love the passion in Jon's voice on OAN - especially the "it aches...." bit.

For me it's the "It's too late"

Undivided - 10/10 (it rocks!!)
Everyday - 7/10 (catchy)
The Distance - 6/10
Joey - 10/10 (I loved that song since I´ve heard it at SHB)
Misunderstood - 9/10 (I think this would be a great next single!)
All about loving you -5/10 (kinda boring)
Hook me up - 8/10 (fantastic!)
Right side of Wrong - 7/10 (I really don´t understand why nobody seems to like this song)
Love me back to Life - 6/10 (nice)
You had me from Hello - 8/10 (just beautiful)
Bounce - 10/10 (perfect !!)
Open all night - 3/10 (IMO the weakest song on the album)

All in all, it´s a GREAT Album, I´d give it 8/10!!

Overall - 9/10 - I love this album!

My grades are a little different than yours (1 = very good, 6 = very bad, like in German school)but this way it's easier for me.

Undevided : 1 (love it)

Everyday : 1 minus (love it too)

The Distance: 1 I like the tempo changes in it.

Joey: 2 minus nice lyrics but way too much piano

Misunderstood: at the moment a 3 but it changes. Jon's "I" before the chorus is quite nerve-recking after a while.

All about loving you: this one is difficult. I' say 2 - 3 at the moment even though it's a ballad but not a too bad one.

Hook me up: 1 this one becomes more and more my fav track together with Undevided.

Right site of wrong: 4, too much piano and the song is quite long-winded.

Love me back to live: 2+ (wow, they can write love songs that are not kitschy).

You had me from hello: 2-3 Maybe with another singer it would even have got a better grade . I like the song but I think it would sound nicer with Richie on vocals. For me it's a Richie-song.


Bounce: 1 love it

Open all night: 4 -. It goes too much into the direction of Always & Co. And somehow it doesn't fit after the powerful Bounce.

All in all I like the album but it is way too short with 49 minutes. It's the shortest album since Bon Jovi.

That's it at the moment. Maybe it changes after a while.

Here I go then:

Undivided - 9/10 (Very good)
Everyday - 9/10 (Great choice for first single)
The Distance - 10/10 (I LOVE this song!)
Joey - 6/10 (A little boring, not special)
Misunderstood - 7/10 (Same as Joey, but a little better)
Hook Me Up - 10/10 (AWESOME!!!)
All About Lovin' You - 10/10 (One of the three awesome ballads)
Right Side Of Wrong - 2/10 (This is horrible, the only good thing is the solo)
Love Me Back To Life - 10/10 (Completely awesome)
You Had Me From Hello - 10/10 (The second awesome ballad)
Bounce - 8/10 (Sounds a little off to me, but a good song however)
Open All Night - 10/10 (3rd awesome ballad)

Most of the songs to me are top notch, but with low water marks like Joey and Right Side Of Wrong and to a certain part Misunderstood this album gets an 8.

Undivided - 10/10
Everyday - 8/10 (would have got 9, but heard it too much recently).
The Distance - 9/10
Joey - 8/10
Misunderstood - 8/10
All about lovin' u - 7/10
Hook me up - 9/10 (would have got 10 if the solo was a bit longer).
Right side of Wrong - 8/10 (I love this one, I think its great)
Love me back to life - 9/10 (This gets better & better & now sounds less like the distance than it used to IMO)
Had me from Hello - 6/10 (my least fav. on the album)
Bounce - 10/10
Open all night - 7/10.

Overall 8.25

I think I differ from many ppl in that I really like RSOW & also Joey & Misunderstood.

Still, great album - being longer & having a few longer solos wouldn't have hurt it, but great all the same.
