Again, Bon Jovi writes pop influenced rock music, though rock influenced pop music may lean more towards the truth these days. There are only a certain number of songs that can be written in the genre Bon Jovi is playing, at least since 2000. Some melodies may be similar, some arrangements may be like eachother but some of you guys are pushing the "Jon is stealing" theory to far.

The Beautiful World rip of How Far We've Come is pretty brutal though, can't be a coincidence.
Sure sure but this isn't me saying they sound alike. Play the demo of Saturday Night and Runaway Train back to back. Compounded by the fact that the engineer of it, Kevin Shirley I think it was, put on record that Jon walked in with the song and said to make it sound like that.
