But yeah, let's keep pretending that (again, for better or worse) Richie has been trapped in Bon Jovi and hating every minute of it.
Musically speaking, for better or worse, the only Bon Jovi song that I think sounds remotely similar is Unbreakable so I am not quite sure where your statement is coming from. Lyric-wise - yeah, might fit the whole 'I am who I am' thematic of recent Bon Jovi. A lot more grit though.

Agreed. From a musical standpoint, love it or hate it, I don't hear it sounding anything like past BJ. Thematically it fits right in though. I'll never buy this "mean Jon is stopping Richie from rocking" mumbo jumbo.

I'm not suing it sounds like a specific Bon Jovi song, but it goes for relevant pop elements, drum machines, etc. Lyrically, it's right in ere with the "I am me, I live my life." stuff.

Yes, but that applies to David Guetta as well, doesn't mean he'd fit on a Bon Jovi record.

As it has been said before, it's funny how when Bon Jovi inserts modern music elements into their art (ala I'm with you autotune) becomes "lame". And when Mr. Sambo releases something like "Come back as me" it's "creative and experimental".

About "Come back to me": Absolutely it's not rock, and not his best effort, but I kinda like it. On the other hand I don't like the clear message to Jon (come on, his "lyric is very timely" tweet and the Frankie & Dean reference are not casual).

It's sad what this band is becoming. A Versace-wannabe soon-to-be ex-guitarist blinded by the glamour and fame monster, a workaholic vocalist with a shot voice, trying to be the next Leonard Cohen with his own E-Street Band, instead of the awesome self he was...

I'll really try to enjoy the show at Mexico City, with or without Richie. Something tells me that it will be the second and last time I'll see the band live. Just hope the setlist is not a downer like in 2010. Easily the worst on the tour.

You do far more commenting about other peoples comments than you do about the issues at hand. If we could all just be as eloquent as you I'm sure the world would be a better place.
