Right from the beginning I couldn't understand what made him do that. In the last chorus (I can't remember if just live or also in the studio version) he stops doing the falsetto thing and in my book that works so much better. But still, to this day this is one of the strangest Bon Jovi songs to me since it just doesn't sound like anything they have done before and after. That doesn't have to be a bad thing at all, but this song just doesn't work me in any form.
That's kind of why I dug it. It had a bit of glam brit-rock swing to it (to me at least) but just loaded with stuff really hard to pull off live. I don't mind the vocals in the studio version, that big breath he has to take to do the "soooooo" live just grates me. Also see: Misunderstood (But that one worked WAY better live)
