Seems to have been done with some degree of passion but it is awful, pointless, and an error. It should be called "How We Made Your Favorite Songs Worse".

If you love the idea of acoustic stripped back that much, just do an album of original songs. Some of the Bon Jovi hits are frankly not worthy of being given this sort of mature ballad treatment and it was embarrassing in parts.

On a wider note, this album was a big contributor to Bon Jovi saturating the market between 2000-2013. A quantity over quality era that ultimately killed the band.
