Same, it deserves more appreciation than it's getting.
(edit) Especially since it was co-written by David.

Yes, this record sounds dated, but I like the kind of rough power. No way near as good as SWW and NJ but much better than Fahrenheit.

09 - Runaway
08 - Roulette
07 - Breakout
06 - Shot Through The Heart
05 - Get Ready
04 - Burning For Love
03 - Come Back
02 - Love Lies
01 - She Don't Know Me

I have to be honest, i really ain't that big of a fan of this album. It's good, and has some brilliant guitar work at times, but it just doesn't do much for me anymore

09 - Shot Through The Heart
08 - Runaway
07 - Roulette
06 - Burning for Love
05 - Love Lies
04 - She Don't Know Me
03 - Come Back
02 - Breakout
01 - Get Ready

9. Runaway
8. Shot Through The Heart (which objectively is probably the better song, but Runaway has a special place)
7. Roulette
6. Come Back
5. She Don't Know Me
4. Burning For Love
3. Love Lies
2. Breakout
1. Get Ready

I like this album. The songwriting may not quite be there consistently yet (and it is astonishingly front loaded, IMO there is a massive drop in the quality of songs after STTH, with only Come Back really shining after that), and it is sorely lacking in the classic Jon/Richie vocal harmonies (as is 7800). But there's not really any other Bon Jovi album that treads such a fine line between youthful vigour and emotion, or between 80s pop songwriting and such frantically unhinged guitar work. It's easy to see IMO how the band progressed from this album to the 80s masterpiece that is New Jersey
