Jon has done another Mini-Review (and I mean “Mini”) this time on Keep the Faith;

https://youtu.be/N8p2_JRRJGE

Interesting what he said about “Dry County” how it inspired him to right songs like “Right Side of Wrong” and “Joey”, for which I don’t quite see the connection. Also saying that “If I Was Your Mother” and “Fear” were more personal songs to him.

Nice that he’s doing these little videos and I hope to see more.

At the very least he seems to be reminding himself of the back catalogue. Whether that would translate into any creeping back into the live shows, who knows. But nice to see him recognise the past for a change.

It would be super interesting to hear what he thinks of bounce. He's basically ignored that album as a whole, he acknowledges Joey and RSOW but that's all he's said of the album in years!!

Could the connection be that they're story songs? I mean, Livin on a Prayer tells a story, kinda; but these seem to be more like straight narratives, without a real universal application, like Prayer has.

Most likely, yes. It’s just I personally would never put those those two songs in the same category as “Dry County”, but then I was thinking musically and in terms of quality which is not the same thing. That plus those two songs from Bounce seem to the considered quite low on people’s lists.

I’d love to hear what he currently thinks about Bounce as well, as you say (much like These Days) it’s largely ignored. It was the Bounce era that I first immersed myself into in terms of really following the bands career so back in 2002/3 I saw lots of interviews talking about the album when it was fresh but it’ll be nice to see what he has to say about it now.

Still immensely grateful he’s doing these little videos and he says they’re going to be weekly so it’ll be interesting to see what’s next.

Also, Jon describes Keep the Faith as a fan favourite (which it is) but it’s certainly more than that. It’s up there with Slippery When Wet and New Jersey.
