Default Potential Number 1's

Which of Bon Jovi's older stuff (nothing past Keep the Faith album) could potentially still make number 1 in the charts today if it was to be released (pretending it is its 1st release). I think only 2 songs could do it.

Livin on a Prayer (yes its still played at clubs all the time)
Bed of Roses

Some others might make top 5 such as I'll be there for you and Never Say Goodbye

Your busy posting today aint you RCR?!!

Id have to agree with you on Living on a prayer, id also include Bad name as well.

Id love to say Bed of roses could be number one, but I couldnt see it myself. Also i know you said only upto to KTF, but I think if always were released now it would make number one in the UK.

OK, this is somewhat unrelated, but I was just thinking, how good would Always have been if it had been written for New Jersey? Already its my favourite ballad, but if it had had vocal harmonies with Richie, and Jon's screams.....wow. Would be amazing

Keep On Rockin'

Prayer, Bad Name are the only songs that would fit today in the market. They are heavy songs, maybe bad medicine also, I don't know.

I doubt that. I really think the song Bounce would be number 1 if they did released it as the first single from Bounce.. But Jonny Boy doesn't seem to get it.. As far I am concerned I got the vision.

Err I donīt think so. But thatīs your opinion and youīve made it pretty clear that you kinda like that song I agree with Thierry, Bounce is one of those songs that should have been released as a single.
