Jesus Christ, BJ please retire now. Sounds like " Big Country " rip off. Time to call it a day ! It may grow on me, but after that not to sure

LOL - Yup.

Actually, more like everybody putting their arms around each other and swaying back and forth.

Did Jon write and perform the solo? Good God.

Don't like starting the song off with the chorus, there's really nothing to show off and it just feels obnoxious. I liked the song a bit more once it got going, but... I dunno, short useless verses and an overproduced chorus. Also is it just me or is Jon singing like he's got something stuck in his mouth?

Whatever. I like it more than I liked WWBTF on my first listen, I guess that's improvement.

Did you expect anything else? The glory days are over. This is just the usual Bon Jovi stuff now. I dont expect anything great anymore.

I didnt like the sound it was very tinny. The chorus is OK.

I want to hear it through a stereo

Still not on Itunes UK.

I liked the bass and the drums. But I'm a little disappoints. Again.
I thought it sounded a little bit like the band Fun - Some Nights

I agree with this. It only works with Bad Name, really. I got the same feeling as this as I did upon the first listen of No Apologies.

No, because "This'll Be My Year" is a fantastic song. If it sounded like that I'd be happy. At last that song has some guitars in it.

As for the solo - when was the last true great Sambora solo? Probably on the These Days album.

Which is one of the worst songs ever made and thus this is just more proof of Jonny boy trying to sound "CURRENT" instead of trying to create something new. **** him.

On first listen, it seems a decent enough song. I really like the lyrical content, I think that is by far the songs strongest point. The melody is nice too but the production is horrible.

It certainly isn't big old rock anthem, it's not going to make many people's top 10 list but it seems like a good enough song. I'd be much more excited to hear it played live with all the awful production wiped away.
