This is a tough one.
Only BJ studio albums:
1. New Jersey
2.These days
3.Keep the faith
4.Slippery when wet
5.HAND
The Circle is still too "fresh" to go on the list.Maybe in a year or so.

Studio albums & compilations:
1.Crossroad (without a competition!!)
2.New Jersey
3.These days
4. Slippery when wet
5.100 mil fans can't be wrong (it's toooo big and has atleast 12 great songs that would make a BIG album).

Now,
Lost highway has two songs that are really dear to me Whole lot of leaving and Memory.All in all now, 2 years after it's realise, i see that it's a good record. Searious/mature BJ record.
Bounce is not on this list cos it is not BJ's best work. But still there are few really good songs: Undivided, The distance and one of my favourite outtakes No regrets.
HAND is a good record. It has some poor songs, but there are couple of good one's: HAND, Wildflower, Dirty secret and Nothing (that should've been on the record!!)
TLFR-what to say 'bout this one.....
For the better part of the 2000 Crush wasn't leaving my cd player. Now 9 years on, i see that it' s not so good as i thought back then.Don't get me wrong , Captain crash, One wild night, Older, Save the world, Two story town are great songs....just some how it was a trendy record. One that i don't listen these days.
7800 F is a fine, fine record!I think we all foget that sometimes. There is one of my all time favourites Hardest part is the night. It's definetly a victim of the 80's and bad production. Shame cos thos are good songs, songs that when you hear BJ perform them live you can't recognize.That's how poorly is the production of that album.
Bon Jovi-as they say „oldy-goldy!“ and that's true. Good first record from the future rock stars.Breakout is the one that when i hear it still makes me smile and boogie.

When we talk about solo record:
1.Blaze of glory
2.Stranger
3.Destination
4.Undiscovered soul

I never heard any of David's albums so ....

One wild night – it's a shame they didn't make this a double album (like G'N'R Live era). Cos there are tooooo many good songs to fit on a single cd.
Powerstation years- it's great to hear how Jon developed as a musician.There is one song that is the best pop song, in my opinion, Jon ever wrote, and it's called What you want.

And that's it!
You'd like to hear top 10 of BJ songs?
I'd say this is it (out of studio albums):
1.Livin' on a prayer
2.Stick to your guns
3.These days
4.Dry county
5.Bed of roses
6.Whole lot of leaving
7.Born to be my baby
8. Wanted dead or alive
9.I'll be there for you
10.Living in sin

Top 10 of outtakes (one's that HAD to make the records).
1.Radio saved my life
2.Love hurts
3.Starting all over again
4.Love ain't nothing but 4 letter word
5.Nothing
6.No regrets
7.River of love
8.Walk like a man
9.Miss 4th july
10.Every beat of my heart
11.Nobody's hero
12.Temptation
(yes i know there are 12 songs on top 10 list!!)

My all time favourite BJ songs:
1.Livin' on a prayer
2.Radio saved my life
3.Stick to your guns
4.Love hurts
5.These days
6.Dry county
7.Bed of roses
8.Every beat of my heart
9.Born to be my baby
10.Wanted dead or alive

+top 5 solo songs:

2.Father time
3.Miracle
4.Church of desire
5.Blaze of glory

There are tons of others songs.But at this time i 'd say that these are my favourites.In a year maybe there will be some new entries from Circle ( WWWB, Brokenpromiseland and Thorn in my side are strong candidates).Let me hear what do you think, or make your own list.
