I mean, it was overproduced and engineered, but good, appropriate.

They kind of went this way again with This House, but with much weaker material. Everything else feels really generic. Perhaps BWC does have some staying pop power, though I hated it when it came out.

I don't need the most aggresive hard'n'heavy song out as single. I loved Make a Memory as its' different and brave choice. Just a bit different one, little braver that falls in that 3-4.5 minute mark

Perhaps it makes more sense in North America than Europe, though. Here legacy rock market is still very strong in numerous countries
Fair points. yeah. Its' clear they are forever going after the a American market. People like generic here. I've said it before but people don't want Bon Jovi "Trying new stuff". They want the hits or songs that sound like the hits. I'd love it if they shook things up and went with something rockier but I can also see why they play it so so so so safe.

[QUOTE=Rdkopper;1290871]I just hope it's not too "This Is Love, This Is Life"

I actually love that one! If it's anywhere near that quality it'll be one of my favorites in the last 10 years. I'm a sucker for the talkbox, upbeat anthem type songs. Although, this will be the first Bon Jovi song with a talkbox since Richie left. I think Living Proof, Walls of Jericho, and Living In Paradice will be amongst my favorite of the new stuff. Waves and Seeds sound pretty cool too.

how can one snippet be so addictive. I think that's the best chorus they've written in years.

I'm feeling the same. The snippet is so so so good...I just hope that it has a decent guitar solo (w/ talk box or not) and a decent intro. And, although I'd love see this one released as a single, I just can't see it happening. The song is too good to be a single.

I'm really curious what comes next people here seem to be excited now. How long will that last? Until one person comes with their negative comment? And then another and so it slowly becomes the cool attitude here?

Don't get me wrong. Listen to and like whatever you like it's just interesting to observe how things here develop.

I like the snippet. That's dangerous. Especially when the best part of the song is used and you build high anticipation for the rest and it doesn't deliver then. Usually I stay away from snippets. I couldn't help myself this time. Too excited with everything that's going on right now.

I wouldn't call it the cool attitude. I've found myself liking THINFS initially and some stuff off 2020, but my biggest gripe with current material is that it wears off really fast. So after a few weeks, I'm usually much less excited about it.
