Ha, ha, I always joke that I was a "closet jovi fan" for the first few years. I did like Runaway right away, but didn't dare to admit I like them cause of their image (jon's looks). See, all those hair bands weren't exactly well respected in the group I hung out with. It was all about music, and good looks were detrimental. To make matters worse, there was this girl in my class that I never really liked, she was such a "good" girl. She wasn't the only one, there were a whole bunch of "oh so good girls" that all of a sudden liked a guy with long hair.
 Even though they would have never given a guy with long hair another look otherwise. Anyway, she carried a magazine with Jon on the front cover around all the time. It made me soooo sick. I sure as heck didn't want to have anything to do with that crowd....It took till Slippery for me to admit I liked them, but then the whole hair band thing got a lot more acceptable - or was it the change in people I hung out with. Don't remember. It's been a while

There is just something about the songs. No matter how I feel, I can relate to any song. And I actually listen to all the songs on their albums. I don't buy an album to listen to one or two songs. I buy it for the whole experience! Stephanie

I've always known and loved some songs like Bed Of Roses, but never cared from which band they were. I'd also heard of the name Bon Jovi, but didn't know that they belonged to these songs. So it was just my luck that the radio moderator said "that was the new single of Bon Jovi" after I'd heard It's My Life, so when they said "here comes the new Bon Jovi single" some weeks later, I was interested and - surprise - I also liked Say It Isn't So. 
So I asked my friend what the CD was called on which I would find both songs, she told me, and shortly after that I owned Crush and loved it. That's kind of funny because now it's the only album that I don't like that much anymore - though it's also very great. 
When Bounce was out, I bought all the other albums of them and the solo records, then I went to concerts... it's really addicting.
