probably more then myself these days. But you nick says it all, your the crush/tlfr kinda fan.

I remember all those fans after Always, still there with TAALS, bought TD and turned down after hearing Hey God. Like the types who bought Extreme's album after hearing more then words. Another category

Crush I love.
But good sir, I take deep offense to my name even being associated with the unmitigated crap that is all of the TLFR album (with the slight exception of the version of IML)

You should have not included Next 100 Years and Two Story Town!!!

People on this board seem to associate "dark and moody" with masterpiece. Fact. I love These Days, but it has nothing on Keep the Faith. Keep the Faith is truly timeless, and the album is a rollercoaster of emotions unlike These Days which is more or less all anger and sadness. Listening to These Days straight through gets very boring because the music's emotion doesn't change direction. Life is a mish mash of changes in emotion, and Keep the Faith nails those emotions. Granted, These Days is the perfect "sad" album.

And Seb, I'd tell you a story about several of the songs from Crush, Have a Nice Day, and *gasp* most of all Lost Highway, and the emotions and lyrics from those songs/albums influencing my life...but it wouldn't change your opinion anyway, so I won't bother.

And TicToc, are you kidding?! These Days the true favorite album of the Bon Jovi fan?! How about the favorite album for the true sheep on this board? (and not everyone is a sheep)

No, he shouldn't have, since those two are near the top of my "personal" list or whatever you want to call it.
