I'd say Slippery > 7800 > Reckless > Bon Jovi Although Summer Of '69 is possibly better than any song on 7800, I think 7800 is the stronger album, more adventurous and somehow more real |

Entire albums, maybe. But "Heaven" destroys any Bon Jovi ballad. Best regards, the Sexx |

I love all the Bon Jovi ballads from '86 to '94. But they all sound cheesie compared to Heaven. note: just my opinion :D Best regards, the Sexx |
Heaven is a decent song, but it's not that good. The lyrics are very average (surely the line "I'm finding it hard to believe we're in Heaven" is an insult of some kind?), and it's instrumentally very sparse. It works, but I prefer almost every Bon Jovi ballad to it.

Never thought that Heaven was that outstanding. BA by numbers if you ask me...

The whole Reckless album is awesome I think. The only thing I'd say as with most Bryan Adams songs (and a lot of BJ songs for that matter), is that the whole album is about love. The album tracks such as She's Only Happy When She's Dancin, Long Gone and Ain't Gonna Cry, as well as the singles all kick ass. Musically the album is ace and I think Bryan has a great voice for rock songs, which are in good supply, but the fact that all the songs are about the same topic I guess it just lacks diversity. 7880 does have a bit of diversity with songs about different things, but for me there are just too many weak songs on it.
As for Reckless vs. Slippery then I gotta go Slippery as I'm more biased to Jovi than to BA. Not by much though. I think they're a good comparison. Both albums contain 10 solid songs with good rock songs and ballads. |
Bryan got two new songs out for the olympic games, both co-written by Jim Vallance as far as I know:
One world one flame - http://www.bryanadams.com/index.php?...ow_release=425 and Bang the drum (not much in common with the JBJ song though) - |
Thought this might be intersting for some of us.
Bryan Adams remastered albums with bonus tracks. http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/search3.htm...20&order=score Reckless is tempting just for "Diana" alone but sure if I wanna spend £20 for an album I already have, not to mention shipping. |
A Reckless 30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition is being released on September 8th. Will contain previously unreleased material.
