I liked Crush and Bounce a little more. I'm happy they made songs like It's my life, Just Older, Next 100 Years, Undivided, Everyday, Hook me Up...etc...etc.
I am also happy they made TLFR, It's a great album for when i can't sleep (I'm not saying it's boring or bad) I'm happy to not be taking sleeping pills anymore.
I would really hope an improvement on the ballad format, Ballads can still ROCK guys!!! Basically the ballad I most liked on their recent album was Thank You... And I just want to say that loops and programing and drum machines are all ok and may or may not give the song that little something extra but come on enough is enough.

It's not that i didn't like Bounce and Crush, but one in this style would have been enough.

I couldn’t say it better…
Crush and Bounce aren’t that bad but for BJ are just back steps…both album didn’t show BJ talent, not as musicians and not as songwriters.

IMO the next record is the most important one for their career since Keep the Faith…they should take all the time they need but I’m afraid they’re gonna release it in 2005…too early.
Something new out every year is not good for the quality.
I don’t know how many records they have to release for Universal but I hope the next is gonna be the last one.
BJ are one of the greatest rock band of all times and the next decade can really define their career…it can take them in “Rock and Roll Olimpo” with Stones and some other good guys or bring them back in what I call “the midway land” where a lot of bands has lost themselves in the last years.

IMO one thing is sure…If they want to go on with the last 2 album line, to survive, they need to write another “It’s my life” (…imagine Crush without that song folks……)

Bon Jovi, your mission is not over yet.

I hated TLFR, I sort of likes Crush and I LOVED Bounce...besides that I love the old albums.
I can`t wait for a new album...I would love to have it yesterday.....

I don't know why you all say that Bounce wouldn't rock. It has some very good and also heavy songs on it and I think it shows that they are on the right way again to more rocking stuff. Sure, it still had too many ballads, but a move into the right direction is done after Crush.

Nahhh...CRUSH is all the way better and definetly MORE ROCK than Bounce.
ONE WILD NIGHT has the same old feeling.
NEXT 100 YEARS is a cool experiment
SAY IT ISN'T SO is an intresting change.

Ok, the rest is averrage too bad but BOUNCE is BAD all the way.Not even averrage beside 2 songs.

I think Bounce is far better than Crush but my personal problem with it is the guitar sound...too rawe in too much songs....it annoyies me.
And I also don't like the production work; I hope they'll change producer for the next record.
Anyway it has some very good songs like Undivided (IMO this should have been the first single) Hook me up and Bounce.
They shouldn't release ballads if they are not at Always-Bed of Roses-Lie to me level. Last 2 record's ballads really sucks!
