Exactly - no comparison.

Agreed. 'I Love This Town' is a great ending which leaves the crowd wanting more, whereas 'This Ain't A Love Song' sends the audience home confused and wondering just where the hell they pulled this song from.


But seriously...'This Ain't A Love Song' is a perfect ending. Keep it up please!

Only listened to TAALS so far. Sounded excellent but that end 'Yesss I'm wrong' sounded quite bad. But.. That was the only downfall. Excellent performance still.

He couldn't sing this line properly in 1995 so he's never going to manage it now.
I remember when they finished with this song at Wembley back then and it left me feeling flat - like a massive anti-climax to what was to me one of the best nights of my life, seeing my favourite band for the first time. I think they should always finish on an up-tempo song.

Richie was having fun on stage with Huey and the other band members (contagious amnesia or what ??) but right now he is not there and the IMPORTANT thing is to make it look like they are brothers and best buddies and have a major blast ...because that image is majorly cracked today .... not a comment made by me by checking on youtube ... I was there second row near the center for 4hours and 40 minutes under a persistent rain (we entered the pit 2 hours 20 minutes before they began) I could just SEE and feel the atmosphere on stage and off ...it was a good show (if you consider the awful weather) among the shows done without Richie Sambora.... I think the crowd though was not that much into it in the seats ... the ppl in the pit, were very enthusiastic, from Prague but also a lot from other countries around here ... hungary slovakia Russia Poland etc etc also plenty is Israel fans Spain fans and me ... I liked it actually and sang along what I didn't do at the first shows of the tour like Munich etc ...the more I go to shows the more I accept those Jon Bon Jovi and friends performances but this is NOT bon jovi ...the show in stuttgart made it obvious .. jon WANTED to go on and on and improvise spontaneously but he got the point and sort of left the stage frustrated :THEY CANNOT DO THAT AT ALL without Richie .... hate me ....I don't care

Stop going to the bloody shows then if they are that bad!

That's what I like the most, his voice breaking adds something special to the song IMO.

This Ain't a Love Song sounded fantastic. Wow, would never imagine that. IMO the best way to end a Bon Jovi show. Now, learn the lyrics by hand Jon, so you can drop the mic from the stand, a la 95

I have to disagree, sorry.

Lisbon 2011 he absolutely nailed that line, in my opinion

Jon sounds much better ending on this than Always, though.

Lisbon 2011 sounded awful IMO compared to this or even Cologne. It was so nasal that almost ruined the song. This, on the other side, sounds amazing.
