Why? The crowd eats it up.

Yeah. WGIGO is a bit corny but it's got a good groove and picks the crowd up. Would be a mistake to drop it.

Out of all the solos in Bon Jovi songs, I never would have imagined it would be Runnaway to be his less impressive take out of all of them. It's not bad, but pretty simplified....

They shouldn't need picking up though, just shows how bad the shows have got for fans to want this song to be a staple. Any other day is a far superior song, but as Jon doesn't shake his ass to it, it's not lapped up by the casual Bom Jovi fans. Sad really.

Exactly. Who gives a crap if the crowd eats it up? They eat it up because he shakes his butt. Plenty of other songs he can shake his ass too that are far superior.

But the other songs are not as easy to sing and they are most likely older than 2007 and make him feel less relevant.

Am I the only one who is not really a fan of Runaway? I realize it's the song that launched their career but if I never heard it at a show again I'd be more than ok with that.

It's not about wanting it. We can babble on about what should be played forever but when it comes down to what is currently played then WGIGO is far from the worst part of the show. I see far bigger problems with the setlists.

It's my least favorite of their hits, I even dislike it more than I do Who Says.
