Default Oft overlooked ballads

Not the most obvious BJ ballads, but I like em all the same, they're all great. Only problem is, I like em all equally, so lets pit em against each other! Which is your fave?

Keep On Rockin'

Aloha !

I voted for This Ain't A Love Song. I completely do not understand why they don't play that ballad a lot more. It was their last song to chart in the top 20 in the US.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

As I'm in a These Days mood.. have to go with This ain't a love song. It is such a beautiful song and it is one I would LOVE to hear live!

Never Say Goodbye! That song has so much emotion in it and it's so reminiscent at the end of a tour.

It's difficult because it's a tie between Never say goodbye and Livin in Sin. Therefore you can forget the other ones.

I'm not even sure which one I voted for because I changed my mind between hitting submit and it actually going through. LOL
