Only 2 more days til I have Bounce in my own two hands. Woohoo.

Hey, you're not alone! I also haven't downloaded the album I'll run to the store tomorrow

I have no idea what should be the next single; I'll let you all know after I heard the album

Greetz,

Bad choice boys! There are better songs on the album than Misunderstood. But then, I´m not the one who decides what the next single is going to be. And luckily, they said they were thinking about making it the next single, they didn´t say it´s going to be the next single.

I think it has actually been confirmed somewhere. - After listening to it properly, I don't think its a bad choice. In fact, I can't get it out of my head at the moment - & I think its catchy enough to do some damage in the UK charts, whilst still have a heavy enough chorus to separate it from the usual chart smaltz.

I have to go with the majority on the "opinion" poll. However, lets remember that these guys know more about the music business than most of us. After 20 yrs, they've done ok.
So Misunderstood is the next single. It's a good song. If Crush is any indication, it will be followed up rather quickly with another single, at least in the UK. Hopefully it will be Undivided.

Misunderstood is a great blue collar bj classic..however personally UNDIVDED gets the hairs on the back of my neck standing, and my andrenaline and emotion going.

UNDIVIDED -> great single

A good song, but I'd prefer Undivided to be the next single....that song is just breathtaking.

i have heard half of the songs so far and Undived is by far my favorite! It is so amazing and perfect bon jovi. Misunderstood sounds pretty good i guess. I am not sure if it would make a good single. it is a little John Mayer-ish so maybe that could make it work. hmm....I love undivided though!!!!!!

I really love it ; misunderstood was in my head since i listened to it (or a bit of it !) on BJ.com
This song means something for me, as the band whished, they said anyboby can see its own situation in it,
but i think undivided will be the next one,

First we have to hear about : lucky ; no regrets ; standing ; another reason to believe ; breathe : we can dance !!!

I really like the song, it makes sense to me as a lot of people tend to misunderstand me

but as a single I dont think its right, however I dont think Undivided will be a single - as indicated by the release of Everyday first. Hook Me Up Or Bouce would be good

I have to say i really like Misunderstood, the song seems to stick in my head, but i also hear what other people are saying, from a commercial point of view 'undivided' would make more impact on the charts, but being a Bon Jovi fan i will buy the single no matter what it is

Just my 2 cents worth, but i really do hope 'Bounce' is released as a single i'd love to hear that blaring out on the radio!
