For a greatest hits, it has to be either Everyday or Misunderstood. I'd personally vote for the former. It was quite a big hit in Ireland/UK/Europe so I'm surprised it didn't make it on to Disc 2. It's a pity that all albums weren't represented.

Clearly Everyday.
If you take chart position as an important criteria, Greatest Hits should have included: You Give Love A Bad Name Livin’ On A Prayer Wanted Dead Or Alive Bad Medicine Born To Be My Baby I’ll Be There For You Lay Your Hands On Me Keep The Faith Bed Of Roses In These Arms Always Someday I’ll Be Saturday Night This Ain’t A Love Song Something For The Pain Lie To Me These Days It’s My Life One Wild Night Everyday Have A Nice Day Who Says You Can’t Go Home (You Want To) Make A Memory We Weren’t Born To Follow Runaway [because of the band’s history] This makes 24 songs. And possibly: Living In Sin Never Say Goodbye Dry County Hey God Say It Isn’t So Thank You For Loving Me All About Loving You Source (creates an North America, Europe+UK, Australia view on this): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bon_Jovi_discography Personally I don't have a problem with Something For The Pain missing. |
Easy... Undivided! Which was "something that's universal" (as always).
|
Undivided wasn't a single and has no business being on this release but then again so does a good chunk of disc 2.
|
Bounce is one of their better album (in my opinion), it was also influenced in part from 9/11 and there isn't songs from that album in the GH...., I can't realize that, not even after 9 years...

I mean, do you guys make a difference if the album is The Greatest Hits or The Best Of? I don't. Even though I know that GH should be compiled of songs that charted the best. In such case, it definitely should reflect the markets. A bunch of songs will be same everywhere. And also - do you the charts dictate it all? Because it might happen that there will be no new song because the old ones all did much better. On the other hand The best Of should be a compilation of just the best song, meaning not only singles but also fan favourites and live favourites? |
"Best of" is completely subjective. Best of to who? The label? The fans? The people who hate ballads? The people that hate the rock songs? At least Greatest Hits has quantifiable data to back it up. Most of the songs on both discs were physically released with promo videos so it's easier to give it a pass. For as much as it tanked I still feel like more people would know Lost Highway over Undivided and it deserves to be there versus songs on albums not released at all.

Lost Highway doesn't deserve to be anywhere - neither setlists nor GH tracklists :mrgreen:
