So because of that thread I gave it another listen. I think Richie's guitar work is superb, as usual in that period. And the verses also go over pretty well. But the chorus is the problem. It lacks the power that Bon Jovi choruses usually have. It almost seems like a guide vocal in a demo with just Jon singing it. If they had done the chorus in a different, more powerful way with the band singing backing vocals as well, it would have been a better song in my book.
Similar here, though I kind of feel that it would've worked better for Aerosmith.
But of their 4 big albums, this and Woman In Love are my skip songs. I don't mind Social Disease, but it does nothing for me.
