I wouldn't call members of boybands and such musicians.

mabe right but on tlfr I wouldn't call bon jovi musicicans too

There are other 10 Bon Jovi records. How can you suddenly stop calling someone a musician when you didn't like 1 or 2 records?

The guys on CD:UK are totally right.

they are musicians but on this cd they are just producers

Yes, because they didn't actually write the songs... Oh, wait a second, they DID. But they didn't play their own instruments, right? Nope, once again, they DID

Keep On Rockin'

Please musically its one of the best things they have done. This is the first time i have seen my step dad appretiate there music and show some sort of intrest in it. Of course my little sister wanted crossroad one but shes a 18 year old who doesnt know how many seconds are in a minuet so ill tell her to come here as there are plenty like her who just dont get it. :roll:

Its a bit soon to be saying that isn't it. Yeah ok, this new album is a re-worked load of songs from their other works but this is following the release of 'Bounce' and the HUGE tour they've just completed under the same name. Run out of ideas?!?!? What the f*** are they ranting on about?!? Bounce was completely new and inventive - it might not have been as good as some of their previous albums but NO-ONE can slate them for 'running out of ideas'!

I saw it, and i just laughed. The 3 'popstars' in question will be forgotten about in 18 months.
The idiot from Busted has slagged them off before, and Busted are possibly the worst thing to come out of the uk in the last year - a boy band trying to be a rock band, and failing miserably! :roll: The worst thing is, is that Busted are on the same label as Bon Jovi in the Uk. This dosen't mean i expect them to say they are brilliant and suck up to them. But you would at least think they would have some respect for a band that has been around for 20 years at the same record company and been so successful! :?

Some of the people on this site ought to open their minds AND their ears to this new album.
I admit some of the new versions don't work, such as Bad Medicine and Bed of Roses which i don't like at all. But I think the new Wanted works really well along with It's My Life, Livin on a Prayer and several others. This album shows there is so much more to this Band than lung-bursting choruses and guitar solos.
To say they've wasted 23 days of their lives on it is a disgrace. What did you do with 23 days of your life in August/September, when they were working their butts of for our benefit? Probably absoloutley nothing if your anything like me!
OK, so you don't like the new versions, that's your perogative, but at least show them a bit of repsect for trying something different! :mad:
