They are all brilliant but I went with Silent Night.... It's not played out and there isn't a bad live version out there that I'm aware of. The real Bon Jovi to me is Self Titled, 7800, Slippery, and NJ (And Blaze).

I remembered the first time I heard it like it was yesterday. I owned Slippery and Jersey and was hanging out with some older chick. I was 15 and she was 17. She picked me up and while we were driving this song came on. I didn't even realize it was Bon Jovi at first because everything sounded like that back in the day and I wasn't as fanatical. She was hot, she was singing it, and I thought the song was excellent so I asked her who it was. She said Bon Jovi... I thought it was new but once I realized it was 7800, I ran out and got the entire cd.

I liked Bon Jovi but wasn't a die hard until Blaze. I was a fan of all the hair metal of those times but I discovered 7800 and the first album after Jersey but it was Blaze that took me to that next level.
