For me it is the most creative video they ever did and surely one of their best (not hard considering how boring most of them are), but for me it can't kick Wanted out of it's numer one slot. Will be my favorite video of all time I guess

For me, the Crush videos are the best of all! It's my life is full of action, diversity even funny, Say it isn't so is their best video and TYFLM is the most romantic one! Another good reason to place Crush on the top

One of their best for sure. I think IML is their best... but SIIS is top 3 for sure.

I already ranked the album, and rambled a bit, but wanted to chime in yet again. A lot of fans here, and across the world, discovered Bon Jovi through Crush. I did too, to an extent, but at the time i had no idea that Crush had just come out. My parents owned 2 Bon Jovi CD's, SWW and Crush. My first introduction to Bon Jovi was Bad Name, Prayer and Wanted. I don't know that my parents listened to any other track off that album. When they listened to those 3 tracks through, it was loaded than anything else they ever put on the stereo.

So while i was familiar with those 3 tracks, i essentially discovered SWW and Crush at the same time, but with no perception of their perspective release dates. I actually recall listening to Say It Isn't So for the first time and thinking how young the band sounded. And i didn't mean, and don't mean, young as a critique. Anyways, it wasn't until i did more research into the band that i realized Crush had just been released and SWW was 15 years old. I was rather young at the time though, being only 12/13.

I also never thought of Crush as an overly diverse album, save for maybe She's A Mystery. And in regards to She's A Mystery, i actually quite enjoy it given i'm in the right mood. I do think it could have been improved with a bit more variety in both the bass line and guitar tracks. As for the rest of the album i thought it flowed quite nicely. Yes, the tracks aren't all identical to one another but I never felt as if they were running a gamut of genres.

Awful tacky shite more like.

It was JBJ saying "ooh look at me - I have some famous friends"

Though saying it's Jon saying "I have famous friends" basically ignores the entire satiric point of the video.

One of the best for sure! I remember seeing it for the first time back in 2000, thinking "If I wasn't a fan already, I'd become one now".

I like all Crush videos. They were creative with videos. IML has energy. SIIS is funny, I love Richie´s face there. TYFLM is cute and romantic, OWN is something different from other BJ videos.
