You can't put some of those songs in that same bracket!
Prayer
Bad Name
Bad Medicine
Born To Be My Baby
Blood On Blood
Blaze Of Glory
Keep The Faith
Sleep
Saturday Night
These Days
It's My Life
One Wild Night
Undivided
These are all songs that are typical BJ. Just great songs in their own right, whether it's the lyrics the structure or whatever.
We Weren't Born To Follow
Lost Highway
Everyday
Have A Nice Day
These are ok songs but nothing like the other stuff listed, I know there sre lots of other examples too.
Bon Jovi just seem to be very lazy in releasing new material now, sticking with the same producer, revisiting the same formula time and time again. I hope I am proved wrong by the new album.
