Yes they have developed, I'm not saying that, but I feel they are doing the same things over and over, which is ok at the moment, but quite a lot of people are starting to say, well that's just the same as that and Bon Jovi have had their good days now. I don't believe Bon Jovi have had all their good days because they a still a damn good band, but I think they need to do something different.

If you listen to Bounce and some of Crush then you wil probably notice that some of the lyrics, and guitar riffs are similar. E.g. Everyday is about the same thing as It's My Life. The guitar riff from I Can Make A Livin' Out Of Lovin' You, is very similar to that of I'll Sleep When I'm Dead. The guitar solo of The Right Side Of Wrong is very similar to that of a couple of other Bon Jovi ballads. They have used similar lyrics in a few different songs too. E.g. "I can take the hit, but I can't take the fall", "These five words.....", and a few more that I can't bring to mind at the moment.

I'm sorry if I'm becoming a critic. It's just that Bon Jovi are my favourate band, and although they have a big status, to get a reputation of one of the top 5 bands ever, they need to do something different to keep people happy. I realise it's hard these days with rap and pop taking over, but I hope you can see my point of view.
