I would like the band to select some of the top folks on this board to act as the "pizza pie jury" to assist in selecting songs like they used to use in the Slippery era. Folks like Becky and Sambora-Chris come to mind. Get a good mix of guys and girls, so the album will have good balance. I think this would have helped on Crush and Bounce. Songs like Neurotica, Breathe, Standing and We Can Dance are much better options that some that were chosen.

I like Bounce better than Crush, but It's My Life, Next 100 Years and Just Older are songs that have more staying power than what Bounce offers, IMHO. Song for song Bounce is better, but it just doesn't have the big anthem type song that will stand the test of time, with the possible exception of Bounce. I like the heavier sound though. Hope they continue with that in the future.
