The main reason I dislike always is that I hold it responsible for all the crappy ballads that followed. It was like they were trying to replicate the success of always by churning out songs that sounded like it. Ballads by numbers. Also, non bon jovi fans tend to rate bon jovi on that song and nothing else because it's all they hear. It's not the best example of their work but it's what they got judged by.

True. Same situation with "It's My Life" though. The inspirational arena rocker. They tried having that hit over and over again too.

I'm definatly in agreement, it's an essential skip on the Crush album lol
That is probably the only song i wont listen to, i always skip it, there are others that i may not feel like listening to can't think of any at moment tho,

she's a mystery is pretty bad but not as bad as some on HAND in my opinion - i'm split two ways there are some great songs but also some dire songs e.g bells of freedom, WTWYA and novocaine, i love the rest of them though!! i think, in my opinion, the worst ever is probably a toss up between those three from HAND!

I think Novacaine is some of their best work since the These Days record..

WSYCGH (duet version only), She's A Mystery, and If I Was Your Mother are the only three songs I hate.

Lonely At The Top, Diamond Ring, and a couple others are not up to par for me.
