I'm not saying they're a better band than Bon Jovi are, because they're not.

But as for the singer...He's certainly better than Jon has ever been. He's capable of nailing In These Arms in the original key, meaning not tuned down half a step. The same goes for everything else. I don't think Jon was ever capable of doing so, not even while recording In These Arms. Always, Good Guys, In These Arms, all sung better than Jon ever could.

Always:

Good Guys Don't Always Wear White:

They're pretty much the only band capable of nailing the songs Jon just can't sing anymore, and the guitarist is getting better as well. He'll always be sloppy, but then again, Richie used to be on another level, really. And think about it, they're a cover band. Cheaper gear and all of that. I kind of wonder what Bon Jovi would sound like through their amps, mixed by their people, if you know what I mean.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan
