Interesting. Probably confirms the exact number of Bon Jovi true die hards in the UK!

Is the unit sales information public? Do you have a link?

The only thing I would have liked added to the booklet, and this is just what I like, is all the single covers and a little bit of blurb from where each single charted in the world with each different covers. I think the Queen GH package did this and it looks really good.

Nice to have all the lyrics, especially to the demos too. Interesting to see how they kept trying to crowbar the "na na na" hook into a song somehow. For what it's worth, I think if Growing Up The Hard Way got rid of them and was a bit more melancholy (and made to be about someone else rather than "I was") it would run in a similar vein to Hey God, and so even fit on These Days much like Diamond Ring eventually found a home there (and I prefer the Sons Of Beaches demo to that one too).

As a collector of Bon Jovi cds and records from around the world, I agreed with this 100%.

+ The researchers would have realised that the acoustic version of Born To Be My Baby has already been released in the UK as a B-Side to the LYHOM Gatefold 12", not just in Japan as stated. (sorry for being a geek)

Nah....Even people on here admitted that they weren't going to purchase it but download it illegally instead. Plus, there are still a bunch of people who still haven't purchased it for various reasons...waiting for the price to drop, etc

Aloha !

The Bon Jovi camp has no idea what was released where and when. When the boxset was released in 2004, Universal issued a full list of all songs ever released and in what territory. There were a few mistakes on there and lacked a few songs as well.

I fit into both those catagories. I have my eye on the Super Deluxe, but no way am I spending $40 on it.

Probably have to divide it by 2 as each CD or download of Deluxe Edition counts as 2 units

Since all the talk about Does Anybody Really Fall In Love Anymore I simply wrote to Obie on Facebook and asked him why the "I know's" were taken away from the song. I was a bit suprised when he answered me today. So, here's the reply!
