Aloha !

Erm, don't these reviewers actually have a point about Jon still singing Bad Medicine after all these years, meaning that even though they've written better things, they yet still decide to play every big song from the 80's? If Bon Jovi would've focussed more on the songs written in the nineties, or the songs with better lyrics than "Bad Name (boom boom) Bad Medicine (boom boom boom), they'd gain a lot more respect, both from critics and from fans.

They need to play the big songs from the eighties, I agree with that. Yet they don't have to play every big song from the eighties. A 40 year old singer singing about needing Bad Medicine does, at times, come across as pathetic, and is exactly why Bon Jovi will not be taken seriously by the critics and general audiences.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan
