But what I cannot stand is that they just destroy their legacy with their bandwagon jumping and a half assed album like the absolute nonrocking LH. This is so safely produced without edges so that even houswife Emma likes it. In former times they were a ROCK band and took chances. The TD version I heard was absolute disgusting and a digrae for a once fabulous band. . As if they re recorded it in the LH-style. Almost made me cry to hear this.
As you know I am a big fan of the Band Queen. So sad that it is that Freddie died - but they will always be remembered as a band who took chances and hardly produced crap. If they were still together (I count that Paul Rodgers thing as a NEW band) they might even have ended up as BJ do who knows. As a lame parody of themselves which they are now unfortunately.
They should have called it a day while still on top not on their wa downhill.

Statements like a song performance "making you almost cry" or "music making your heart break" clearly don't fit with Bon Jovi never being or having been the best band to you. I couldn't care less if a band I "only like" throws out crap nowadays. I still can listen to the good stuff. At most, it would be a pity.
You being in my Top 10 of the biggest idiots ever does neither make me almost cry nor my heart break. It's just a pity or sad in general.
Why not stick with your so called vintage Bon Jovi and stop the whining? Unfortunately for me, I cannot just hold it with your vintage stuff, because there is none.

To me, this has everything to do with being a fan. It is not just the music. I'm a fan of this band to a pretty big extent because they don't or hardly do pathetic things like this.
