What makes it more striking is that, in the past, Jon could sing the cheesiest lyrics in the world in such a way that you pumped your fist in the air and belted your lungs out. When recited, it doesn't work that well. And the song is more of reciting than singing which, of course, could've been done on purpose.
Something about it puts me off, but I can't say what exactly. For example, I love Not Running Anymore, another example of an "unexciting approach", but something doesn't work with this one for me.
Not Running Anymore is really boring, but in the mark 3:24 of the song break that monotony and raise it.
Is for this that, Not Running is better than The Fighter.

KTF and TD is from the last century, but neither is it shakespeare. In These Arms is not a great song for its lyrics. TD could be those rare exceptions as I said.

I am very clear what Bon Jovi is, one of his strongest points was energy and passionate delivery. That is missing. Well, and also Sambora.
