Isn't Jon "the -powers-that-be" now? Wouldn't "UMG (on behalf of Bon Jovi Profit Split)" mean that Jon determines who is credited as the artist?
As you point out, Jon has been quoted as saying that "one song
on the album is about PTSD", iirc. I guess this song could be a
different song about PTSD; but unless he's just in that groove, that seems a little unlikely to me. Or, idk, maybe working with them on the documentary inspired a second song in the same vein? *shrugs*
Here's another thought: Am I remembering correctly that Blaze was re-recorded by the band for release on Crossroads? If so, maybe he's done the same thing with this song. Maybe he wrote and recorded it himself, specifically for the documentary, but then decided he wanted the band to record the song for the album. Just thinking out loud...
There's one thing I don't get in your post, though, so I'm curious. Why would Jon need to save face; and how would saying it's JBJ vs Bon Jovi help?
