Let's now choose the song "Stick To Your Guns" from "New Jersey." We're talking over 20-years since this album was released and the song has only been played what, a couple of times? I love this song; I would obviously consider it a rarity.. Even more of a a rarity over "Learn To Love," which hasn't even been played at all.

Understand where I am trying to go with this? Just one point of many that can be presented.

Do you define a rarity as a song that either A.) hasn't ever been played regardless of how long it's been out? B.) a song that hasn't been played much (a few times), if at all on a Jovi album over five-years old? Or a certain length of your choosing? C.) .... Your definition.

I look forward to seeing what others have to bring to the table in terms of their definition of a "rarity."

Thanks!
