Default sticking up 4 the ballads!

you all may think im abit weird as im a guy and i actually think the ballads on this record are very good,lol
especially 'you had me from hello'

i think the lyrics are excellent and jons voice sounds awesome!

but like most ppl i like the rocky ones more but that doesnt mean i dont like the ballads.

overall,the band said it was very hard rock and the songs that are rocky are very hard so they didnt fail 2 deliver.also i think bon jovi realise that a bon jovi record without a few ballads isnt a bon jovi record!if u get what i mean!lol

anyway just thought id see if there are ppl out there who really like the ballads.

I'm a guy and I really like some of the ballads as well. Open All Night is great, as is Right Side Of Wrong.

Of course, I love the rock songs too. Bounce is one of my favourites tracks off the new album.

Maybe I'm more openminded than some, but I don't think gender dictates what type of song a person will like. Right now "You Had Me From Hello" is sweetly ringing in my mind. It's one of my favorites, but I also love the rock songs like Univided and Hook Me Up. I think the CD is very well balanced. It's great that Dave gets a chance to shine this time around. Jon sounds amazing on all the songs. There is a lot of heavy guitar like they said there would be and Tico is fantastic as always. It's a great CD overall!

You had me from Hello is soo great! Fantastic lyrics, very smooth, great vocals, just perfect! And Joey is also really good, one of my favourites of the album. But I also like the heavier songs (especially Bounce and Undivided). I think itīs a good mixture beetween ballads, mid-tempo tracks and rock-songs! Itīs defenitely a GREAT album! Love it!
