And its lyrics are not in the booklet.

And it's the only track on NJ that doesn't have the lyrics included. Also, it's the only song in which Jon and Richie go by their nicknames in the writing credits.

Quite interesting I must say
never thought of Everyday as a short song... I guess it had enough power that I never noticed that- I love that song

ok, now did you sit down and do the calculations yourself?
cause sometime ago, someone posted a link to a site that has stats about different words in songs
(in general not just BJ)
*for example I remeber ppl were giving stats for te word Romeo in BJ songs
(now I remember when this was- in April, shortly after Romeo Jon was born)

anybody have this link????????????????????

Wrong. It was released in the US as a radio single, but only handed out to rock stations.

Not if you consider solo albums.

Every solo album had a title track. Except for Lunar Eclipse I believe.

Since 2000, Bon Jovi released an album every year, and are continuing to do so untll 2005. The last few years has been the most productive regarding releases.
