Really surprised Jon has kept this one in.
I dont get the love for this song at all.
Most disappointing song that has a great title.
I thought it was gonna be a real great BJ song and some reviewers went overboard about how good it was.
Its just "meh" to me. Its OK and when it comes on the ipod i skip it.

Scars is one of the best songs on the album in my opinion and one of the few that truly sounds like Bon Jovi to me.

I can see how it might not work live though...

Agreed, I always skip it. Too whiney and boring.

Agreed. Scars and Come on Up to Our House are the two songs I've barely listened to.

Most likely because it's #12 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary (and has been for a couple of weeks):

Just watched that HAND clip from periscope and I'm actually shocked. Not that he's missing some notes, but he sounds like he has almost no voice left. Judging from the recordings he's been on a steady decline since the first show in Greenville and I'm starting to fear whether he can actually pull off the entire leg.

That's surprising, but not shocking. While they will never have a major hit, Roller Coaster and Born Again Tomorrow were the two songs with most potential to make any noise chart-wise. It's a shame they dropped the ball with the outdated title track as the single instead of picking one of these two.

Agreed. I'm sure live it's harder to tell but still. He sounds like he's actually lost his voice.

And to be honest if it's gonna be that bad I'd rather hear him struggle through I Believe and Hey God.

I'd rather not listen to Jon barely get his way through BoB and Saturday Night.... but man am I happy to see Raise Your Hands back!

Live, it's a snooze fest.

Half the crowd sat during it at the Sunrise show.

I'm just shocked Jon refuses to give it up. He completely loses his audience with it.
