It amazes me how many people rank KTF and TD over SWW and NJ.... All 4 albums are solid but song for song, SWW and NJ just dominate in my opinion...

Social Disease might be the weakest track of the 2 albums but it does have some diversity to it. I include Edge as a bonus track as too.

Because they are better... in my opinion. ;-) For me, the band got better with each album from 1984 to 1995. KTF and TD sound more grown up to me than the 80s stuff - which is still great (considering SWW got me into BJ).
Even though "Crush" wasn't as good as the 90s albums (objectively), it still holds a place in my heart for what it meant to me when it came out. And it's the only post-2000-album that still has some vibe of the pre-2000 BJ in my book, even though it has a completely new sound.

I do like "Socieal Disease", though I'd love "Edge" to be on SWW. If I had to exchange one song for it, it would be "Without Love".

HAND NJ Crush are great rock n roll albums with power and passion. This is what I love most from this band. TD is masterpiece but little boring sometimes.

I've a feeling you don't really understand what Rock & Roll sounds and feels like. With every subsequent release since New Jersey, Bon Jovi's lost more of that rock & roll feeling, with What About Now being the result of how little passion there's left in this band.

Salaam Aleikum,

Why even waste your time participating in this if you're not going to provide information that can actually be used in the tallying?

Hello everyone! As I'm only an occasional and mostly passive member of these message boards, I thought I could write a bit more once I'm posting something. My order of albums is based on a track by track rating I've created for myself not so long ago. TD is my most listened album ever and therefore deserves to be number one. The top four are close and favorites depend on mood. BJ is so high because I like all songs and for me there are no fillers there. HAND is IMO the best they've done since TD, especially as I still regularly listen to a couple of songs. Deciding on different criteria, e.g. how many songs I really like (and ignoring the songs I don't like that much), LH would fight with Crush for the 7th place. - Interesting to see the variety of lists.

It's your opinion. I disagree.

Crush, Bounce and HAND would've made a nice single album, if only the best tracks were chosen. The less is said about the last two, the better.

I can see the point of Super Seb. Also, as a curiosity, Jon always speak ill of 7800º Faherenheit, however, it is better than his first effort, as there are better riffs, bravest structures and especially Jon singing is very powerful, much more than their self-titled album. About lyrics, is basically the same shit that his first album, but the rest, in my opinion is far superior, and as rock record, better than the last 15 years.
