Same with the 80s tunes... Temptation has grown on me a lot since the box was released.

I initially liked Letter to a Friend... more than most of the box. The lyrics are descent but I think it is missing a strong chorus or hook. Not a typical BJ song, I guess.

My favorites from the box are Why Aren't You Dead, I Just Want To Be your Man (just sounds like something that should have been on These Days... and that is good enough to me), Crazy Love, Sleep While I Dream, Open All Night, and Last Chance Train. Everything is is somewhere in between descent and bad, besides most of the songs that have already been released.

I'm with you on that one-I think Nobody's Hero is one of the best Jovi songs ever.

I love that one. It's one of the things that Jon and Richie do best and very simply.

I started to listening box set now Havenīt listen it long time. Box Set is full of great songs I like to discover them again and again. There are many songs what I love and songs what I usually skip.
I always liked Letter To A Friend. That songs grows from beginning to the end.
Radio is one of my favourite. The Fire Inside has something special. I donīt know why but I like Satellite Kidnap An Angel is sad but beautiful.
Usually I skip All I Wanna Do Is You, Shut Up and Kiss Me, Someday Just Might Be Tonight.

I hope Bon Jovi will relase another box set!
