I don't know,
I still love Crush. It's not my favorite BJ album, nor is it the album that got me into Jovi (the name is more of an age reference) But that being said, I love the album. I really like every song, except for "She's a Mystery", "Mystery Train", and "I Got The Girl". "Thank You For Loving Me", "One Wild Night" and especially "Save The World" have weak spots, but are generally listenable, to me anyway. As for the rest "It's My Life" is pure Bon Jovi. "Say It Isn't So" is one of my favorite songs, of any band. I love the guitar riff, I love the lyrics. "Two Story Town" is one of Bon Jovi's best hard rockers, IMO. "Next 100 Years" is an odd song. My friends and I have kind of adopted the lyrics as a motto, but I think it would be better without the solo. It's a good solo, just kind od tacked on. "Just Older" is an great song. Great personal lyrics, really shows the band's personality. Still listen to it at midnight on my birthday every year. As for "Captain Crash and The Beauty Queen From Mars", this is one of my favorite songs. Yes, it's different, but I think different is good every once in a while. I really like the guitar melody, and the tinge of absurdity in the lyrics.
I know alot of people wil rip me for this, but honestely I couldn't care less.
Figured I'd share my opinions.
