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

I have to agree here...I'm your man seems to have quite nice potential...I like it a lot!!!Blind Love I think...i haven't heard worst song from Bon Jovi...Old Habits and The Fighter seems better for me...I found it hard to hear the whole song...First time for me to feel this for a Bon Jovi song...And i've been listening to the band since 1988.

Which paper ? Maybe you have a link?

I think Blind Love's pretty good actually, certainly has more emotion than any recent Bon Jovi song I can think of.

I only want to hear songs in full so not bothering listening to snippets or anything.

I don't know...Blind Love makes me want to kill my self!!!...Or get some sleep!!!

Sure.

It's still Krone we're talking about - they also claim Richie was fired due to alcoholism. Plus, it says that the record was announced "completely spontaneous, astonishing even their record company".

When Jon writes the best song song since It's My Life and puts it in an album that he really doesn't care for, it only shows that he doesn't have a clue when it comes to song selections.

We All Fall Down could be better if Richie was doing backup vocals.

Or if he re-wrote it completely Melody is nice, those lyrics are dreadfuldreadfuldreadful.

I have to say these lyric videos kind of ruin the songs - if you listen to the songs without reading them they sound wayyy better

Anyway, my thoughts on the album so far - generally a very nice surprise! I'm liking the raw sound on some of the songs a lot. Not sure the title is very subtle though!

- Teardrop - was not excited about this on first listen but actually really enjoying it now, nice to have some passion in the delivery again. Is this a DA reject? Has that kind of sound.

- We don't run - Love this one - great to have a rocky sound again (in spite of some slightly Eurovisiony undertones in places)

- Saturday night - Really like this one too, good tune (again it improves if you don't read the lyrics!). Shame about the resemblance to the NB song but doubt they'll sue over it.

- Blind love - I think is quite nice, I can see why some people disagree but I think it's designed to be a deliberately simple, almost lullaby type, song


Not planning to judge the other songs until I've heard them whole but very excited to do so.

Quite like the simple design of the cover. I assume it's cos it would be too painful to cover it in pictures of just the 3 of them?

Here's to some more good music hopefully!
