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!

I have surprised myself by ranking WAN so high, but when comparing track for track, there are more songs I like on that album than a lot of the others. 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.

Extremely hard to rank Bounce, LH and WAN against each other. Given WAN the benefit of the doubt as I havent listened to it loads.

My Top 6 was very easy to put together, obviously in my opinion these are the best albums, the ones I still listen to a lot and enjoy.
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.

(12) These Days
(11) Keep The Faith

(07) Slippery When Wet
(06) Have A Nice Day
(05) Bounce
(04) The Circle
(03) What About Now
(02) Fahrenheit
(01) Bon Jovi

Only the first 4 and the very last were easy and obvious... I thought I'd rank "The Circle" much higher. Maybe tomorrow I would...
