I guess I just never got why people get mad at Jon for not picking songs they personally love.

Bon Jovi and their fans (for the most part) are probably the last people who would know if a song is contemporary or would do well in the charts. Something that would do well in the charts would probably be hated by the fanbase. Although, if they wanted some sort of chart impact, they should at the very least have got it on to the new music friday playlist on Spotify and from what I could see they didn't. Bit pointless chasing fads and success when they don't do the legwork on the promo to back it up. Although its mainly for the album, so any sort of exposure helps (like with the Prince Harry stuff this week. Cringey made up text convo, but it got BJ some exposure and mention of new stuff)
