Bon Jovi "Fan Album": Burning Bridges- Out 21 Aug

The only thing those two have in common is that they're slow and JBJ sings them. They can bore you, but can't really be compared as not only the lyrical content is different, but the production is too, one is an acoustic guitar driven song while the other one is mostly a piano with some violin touches here and there.

I don't like The Fighter, and I hate Old Habits, but Blind Love is an step higher tan those two IMO. You can hate them, though, it's ok

I think it's unfair to compare songs. Teardrop and Blind Love...

Some are comparing them to The Fighter or Old Habits while others are comparing them to Lie To Me or Something To Believe In. I could even make a Sole Truth comparison due to the piano but every song is different and offers a different element.

If there is one thing I learned from those stupid singing competitions is that a song needs to be believable. It's more than just being able to singing it. It's putting in passion and emotion. Jon used to do that naturally and that's why he was once so flawless. He lost that with their past few releases but now he has seemed to have found something with these two songs.

In addition, they offer something much more lyrically. These songs are very well crafted lyrically! Teardrop's even got that hook. I mean come on! I'm a sucker for those hooks though.

Every album needs to be balanced and these songs are part of that balance. Maybe by themselves one could think of them as snoozefests (I don't) but as a way to balance out an album, they are needed and quite brilliant!

These songs will be spoken about years from now as being underrated.

You're all gonna laugh... or not! I've just heard a TV spot for the blu-ray edition of Fast & Furious 7 and the "who-oh-aaaah-oooooooh" are exactly the same as the ones in WDR! It was on French TV but I guess the spot is the same in every country, I did a quick YT search but couldn't find it, found trailers and extracts but no TV spot, I'll do a thorough search when I have the time, it should be on the soundtrack. But up to you now if you like hip-hop, dance music and the likes.

When I first heard We Don't Run, I knew it sounded like something I'd heard recently but could quite put my finger on it.
Like a lot of others here, first thought was Fall Out Boy's "My Songs Know..." but it still didn't seem to hit the mark.
I spent ages racking my brains as to where I had heard it, and on Friday evening it dawned on me - See You Again by Wiz Kalifa. Even had to play it in order to confirm and yet, it's almost identical to that bit.

You got it! I've just listened to See You Again by Wiz Kalifa, that's the one I heard on TV. Now they both sound like BJ's What Do You Got as well.

I didn't buy the last album as I didn't like any of the songs on it. From the 3 songs I've heard off this fab album I like them and will buy it on 21st Aug.

Could there be links to all songs from the album in one post ? Ie on the 1st page ?

ezearis has been updating the first post

Thank you, ezearis.

Have the damn snippet of 'We All Fall Down' stuck in my head now and ive only listened to it a few times

For me it's the little guitar part after Jon goes "I'm, Your, Maaan!" Really looking forward to that one.

😂 and I'm being haunted by some lines of Blind Love, which I truly fear..

An Austrian newspaper writes today that BB was such a surprise that in the beginning even the record company (here = Universal Music Austria) didn't know.
