there are songs on the last few albums that show that they could do this if they wanted to, and that their song writing capability is not completely dead. however, they keep putting out safe, overproduced, too "live my life" generic-jovi albums that are stale and show no growth.

however you slice it, we just need something fresh - but i'd love something to be put out with more of a demo-feel to it...something that sounds like they said F-you to the radio and just wrote songs from the heart, recorded them, and that's that.
