Wasn't there this same thread like two months ago?
Anyway, some that come right to mind are Wild Is The Wind, Damned, Just Older, Undivided, and Novocaine.

Was Edge Of A Broken Heart never released as a single? If not, it is the one that wasn't but should've been. Other ones: Roulette, Stick To Your Guns.

These three bonus tracks from Hand would have easily racked up it sales to 10 million.

without much doubt in my mind, "The Distance" was the choice for lead single off of Bounce and they really missed the opportunity of having a huge radio hit. It is classic Jovi, yet different from IML and HAND.

On HAND, either Last Cigarette or I am should have followed Wsycgo, or even STory of my life. Again, they went in a wrong direction with WTWYA.

On Lost Highway the trend continued as they foolishly went with MAM first, when it should have been AOD followed by MAM. Summertime might have been a good first single as well.

IMHO, the band's single choices have been totally screwed with and cost them sales and airplay.

novocaine
dirty little secret
nothing
another reason to beleive
no regrets
wedding day
outlaws of love
as my guitar lies bleeding
heatrs breaking even
if thats what it takes
love hurts
does anybody really fall in love anymore
wild is the wind
stick to your guns
backdoor to heaven
love is war
river of love
edge of a broken heart
deep cuts the knife

those are some of what i could think about

all of those would have made hits... i don't understand how bon jovi works, maybe they keep the best songs out

Those songs are one worse than the next IMO.

Up too 2000 they always made good choices as far as singles goes.
Even with Crush they didn't bad considiring the tracklist. Sure Next 100 years could've been single but not extra, Crush simply wasn't good enough. Maybe instead of say it isn't so but that clearly was ment to be a single. IMO definitaly instead of Thank you for loving me, but that was the ballad so no go eiter.

With Bounce they went bad, Everyday released as first single when IML was still kinda fresh. Undivided not in the US. The distance not released. Bounce not released.

and the story continues
