Plus let me tell ya, im from Ireland & the simple reason U2 are loved in America unike jovi is because they are Irish, not because Boner is an activist or writing more relevant lyrics or any of that
album sales.......from 2007 they have said 120 million......in three years copies of all 15 albums (if you include boxset, tlfr, & own) have been sold which i am sure amounts to a significant figure, plus we have four solo albums too, which accounts to a possible total of around about 150 mill im sure, similar to aerosmith, u2 etc. how many solo albums have u2 or aerosmith had ????

I'm pretty sure the label considered the Jon solo records when they told us about the 120 million records sold. Richie and David sold shit as solo artists.
In the US, Bon Jovi is not even close to Aerosmith and U2.
U2 is bigger than these two acts in the UK. But in the other parts of the world they are very close.
According to several sources, Aerosmith sold 150 million records, and U2 sold 145.
The point is the numbers are exaggerated. If we look at certifications, there's no way these three acts reached these numbers. Same for all the other big acts.
