Bon Jovi do need the singles to sell records. If It's My Life wouldn't have been that big of a hit Crush would have flopped bigtime. The same for every album. Bon Jovi has sold that many albums because they have got the big hits. Otherwise; why did Crush became such a succes and Bounce didn't?

This is complete nonsense as well. IML didn't get in the top 10 in the US indeed, but it stayed that long in the top 40, that the recordcompany decided not to release SIIS. And Always didn't make it at number one as well, but again it was that big of a hit there that Sat. Night wasn't released over there.

Salaam Aleikum,

Always peaked at Number two in the UK. It was only held off the top spot by Think Twice by Celine Dion.
You are right, it got to number two but it was kept off number one by "Saturday Night" from Whigfield. Yeah, great f*cking song that was!
