I have noticed that most ppl disagree with the singles that BJ have released so far.....however I think that the songs that have been released so far are awesome!

Everyday rocks, Misunderstood is great, and All about loving you is one of BJs best ballads for a while, and also hopefully Bounce will also go well.

However I would have liked to see Undivided and hook me up released (its a pitty they can't release 6 songs)

Didn't Shania release nearly every song from Come On Over as a single?

And Michael Jackson released many singles from Thriller and Bad... But those albums sold more than any BJ album ever will

They may rock, but they ain't as good as Bevo are they Dan? Bevo Rocks more than Everyday, Misunderstood, or even the band themselves.

Lol, no seriously. I think Everyday is a great song, but if it was a good choice for the first single given the songs that were on Bounce. Misunderstood's not bad, but I'd preferred them to realise Right Side Of Wrong. All About Loving You Is A Good Sequel to Misunderstood, but I just know it won't be a success. Maybe Undivided, or Bounce would have been a better choice.

The only reason bands release signles is to earn money promote their album. I therefore believe that realeasing anymore than 3 or 4 singles is wrong. It's like selling your music twice, and some people are stupid enough to buy the album and then also buy 7 or 8 singles off the same album.

Thank you, but I don't call myself stupid, I call myself a collector.

def leppard's hysteria released 7 songs. love bites, hysteria, pour some sugar, armageon it, woman, rocket, and animal. well 6 were big hits!

as far as Bon Jovi goes it is hard in this time for them to release that many songs. the radio only played 2 songs off of crush and bon jovi did release 4!

Misunderstood was the second single and did better than the first single.

Bounce was released to rock radio and was the third single.

i think that the fourth single "all About lovin you" will make a big impact and will help them sell more albums. its one of their best ballads since Always!

There is no way that there will be a fifth single. unless they sell 5 million copies in the next few weeks.

hope i helped.
