He's the harshest critic I can think of. Sometimes doing covers demonstrates just how talented Bon Jovi are because they can take loved classic and make it their own.

I'm agree with you

Neurotica80, which song was this? I didn't realise Bon Jovi had put a cover song on a studio album. I guess you learn something everyday.
She dont know me on their first album. I says its a cover, it was wrote by someone else.
And SHE DON'T KNOW ME ain't a cover...it was written for Bon Jovi.Just like Britney Spears has hundreds of songs written by somebody else but for her! I mean,HIT ME BABY ONE MORE TIME ain't a cover,is it???

Or just because Jovi wrote HOUSE OF FIRE,it doesn't mean ALICE COOPER covered it!
You know what i mean?
SHE DON'T KNOW ME is a BON JOVI song even if it sucks!

To everyone who doesn't want covers on the acoustic album because they want to hear acoustic Bon Jovi songs...get on the Internet and download them. There are plenty around, and you can ask in the File Sharing Forum.

I don't mind hearing covers, so long as they are songs I like.

Let's all discuss how much the acoustic album sucks now. Really, why wait until we actually hear it, right? What would be the sport, er, I mean point of that. Why, that would be logical.
