No. There are some songs I don't like too much, but Crush is my favourite album, and although it may seem more pop compared to Slippery When Wet or New Jersey is because the band is maturing, and their writing styles have changed. They now have more life experience, and although some of the songs are lighter than older ones, they are still a heck of a lot better than the best band of today.

There are some songs from Crush and Bounce that are harder rock tracks than some of the older tracks.

If you call Crush and Bounce pop, then you should re-consider calling Slippery When Wet rock. Livin' On A Prayer and You Give Love A Bad Name, as great as they are, are just as pop as It's My Life or Captain Crash, or even One Wild Night.


Like I said about not caring about the looks and stuff, I also don't care what genre they are put into. As long as they keep producing music that I like, they will remain my favourite band.

To quote Dave;

"People always try to put us into some classification, although they really can't"
