Album Rankings - 2015
We did this in 2009 and New Jersey was voted the best Jovi album. We did it again in 2012 and These Days took out top spot. Well 3 more years have passed by so I think it will be interesting to do this again. Plus we have What About Now in the mix - it'll be interesting to see where that ranks.
For those unfamiliar with how this works, basically you just rank the Jovi albums from best to worst (giving your favourite 12 points, your second favourite 11 points, etc etc). If you feel that an album isn't worth of any points then you can give it a zero. Each set of points can be used once only and each set doesn't have to be used (i.e you can give 10 points to an album and 8 points to another album, while giving 9 points to no album). The albums to rank are - Bon Jovi - 7800* Fahrenheit - Slippery When Wet - New Jersey - Keep the Faith - These Days - Crush - Bounce - Have a Nice Day - Lost Highway - The Circle - What About Now At the end of the voting period (1-2 weeks), all votes will be tallied. Get voting! --------------------------------- 2009 Album Rankings Thread 2012 Album Rankings Thread |

Having said that, all the post 2000 albums are quite close for me. SWW and KTF are in a league of their own IMO, closely followed by NJ. |

The bottom 6 was a struggle to rank, as I don't hate any of the albums, but neither to I really listen to them anymore / nor was touched by them at the time of release. |

11 New Jersey 10 Have A Nice Day 09 Lost Highway 08 Slippery When Wet 07 These Days 06 The Circle 05 Bounce 04 What About Now 03 Crush 02 7800 Fahrenheit 01 Bon Jovi Was a tough one to do. The bottom two were easy, since they don't do much for me, except for Runaway and 1-2 other tracks. Close call between Crush and What About Now, since I enjoy both very much, but both have filler tracks and I rarely listen to Crush anymore. Same for Slippery, but that's a classic and has Wanted, Prayer and Raise Your Hands ;-) The strongest albums IMO are definitely the top 3 of my list, in addition to LH, which I think, musically, is just brilliant, whether you like the "country" style or not. |

This is getting harder, mostly because of the poor output from this band in recent years..
12pts] These Days 11pts] New Jersey 10pts] Slippery When Wet 9pts] Keep the Faith 8pts] Crush 7pts] Have a Nice Day 6pts] The Circle 5pts] Bounce 4pts] Bon Jovi 3pt] 7800 Fahrenheit 2pts] What About Now 1pts] Lost Highway The order here is all about what Bon Jovi mean to me - what music they put out and the top 4 represent everything I love about this band. The mid section has its moments, in patches. The bottom 3 stutter... What about now and lost highway are so far removed from the band I grew up listening to that they have to be my least favourite. |

11. Keep the Faith 10. Slippery When Wet 9. These Days 8. Lost Highway 7. Crush 6. Have a Nice Day 5. Bounce 4. Bon Jovi 3. The Circle 2. 7800 Fahrenheit 1. What About Now The top 4 stand out above the rest. I like Lost Highway more than most and appreciate them doing something different (also the last time it felt like they put any heart into an album). Crush, HAND and Bounce change spots based on the day, I have them all pretty equal. Bon Jovi and the Circle are next. The last 2 are well below the rest. |

By the time I got to the 6 points album it didn't really matter what order they go in. They are all so patchy. |
