First of all: Love's The Only Rule country?! People, you really need to tell us what you're smoking. LTOR has nothing to do with Lost Highway, please listen an album before talking about it.

No. It's not. And no, it has not. Production, well, can't save sh*t with sparkles.
Lost highway can't be marked as turning point though. Out goes rock and in comes.....whatever.

So the fact that, according to you, it isn't "rock" makes it crap? First of all rock is a very open musical genre, and second, a song or album might not be "rock" and still be good.
People that say Lost Highway is crap
('cause they don't say they don't like it, just say that it's crap) never give a good argument or just say that it isn't rock. That doesn't make it bad.
And gotta agree with Captain_Jovi, Saturday Night has that country-ish sound not so far to the one on Lost Highway but still everyone likes it.

How do you know they haven't stayed true to themselves? How do you know they didn't honestly wanted to do Lost Highway and didn't do it for the money. Jon couldn't believe it when the album was #1. They're 50, Klaus Meine said once "I can't write all the time songs about chasing girls, give me a break!". Yes, I love those duets. And you seem to forget that his group is a bunch of people, people that change with time and that "staying true to themselves" now can mean something different than when they were 25. I used to listen only metal when I was 13, now I listen everything, and I listen songs that I never believed I could hear back them. People change, bands change.
Also, Bon Jovi was never a "rock" band, they were always a pop band, they always took influences from the trends and elaborated their own sound, they always were a "pop-metal" band, a "pop-rock" band or a "pop-country rock" band, that's what they are and what they always were.
About Bobby, I won't say anything, I want him out too :p
