Just Older v The Distance
 
IMO, two of the best medium-rock songs they've ever written. Also, I think that they are probably two of the best songs to come from the last two studio albums, Crush and Bounce.

Which is better though? I'd probably lean toward Just Older, only because it is more of an established Bon Jovi song, though it is really quite hard to split the two. :wink:

Just Older, it is kind of a theme for them. :D

Plus, it mentions our favorite Coach..Coach T.!!!

I like them both heaps but there is something about the chorus of "The Distance" that makes me lean towards it as the better of the 2.

The Distance

i think Just Older is just a little bit overrated IMO

I do really love them both, but "The Distance" was the song that, upon first listen, I got chills for. Since then, it's become one of my all-time favorites that the boys have done. But "Just Older" is still a brilliant song.

don't know :(

Jag 04-26-2003 12:21 PM

i think they are two very different songs, but just older has a more bonjovi sound, and when they stand shoulder to shouler its awesome! also, a whole verse is dedicated to mr.sambo, so its defintely just older for me....it just has more meaning for me.

The Distance

Mr Bluesman 04-26-2003 02:46 PM

Oh right, this is hard. JO is my favourite from Crush and The Distance is my favourite from Bounce, and I love them both. :?
Ok for the moment I'm saying Just Older, but I'll have to wait until I can experience The Distance live. :wink:

same for me!

Martin 04-26-2003 04:04 PM

for me as a official crush hater it's not even worth a question: just older sucks as the rest of that album and the distance is one of the songs which let's the hope on better bon jovi days alive...

THE DISTANCE!!!!!

Neurotica80 04-26-2003 10:25 PM

Id have to go with just older, one of my fave songs of Crush. The distance isnt a song i listen to that often

Yvonne 04-26-2003 10:34 PM

I'd have to say The Distance, it is one of my fave songs in Bounce. Just Older is crap if you ask me! Like someone said further up, overrated!

dianebonjovi 04-26-2003 11:06 PM

Just Older. It's a perfect song for us "just older" fans who are beginning to see those little lines looking back at us when we look in the mirror. You young 'uns will appreciate it more in another 10 or 15 years! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Kev 04-26-2003 11:33 PM

just older by a million miles!!!
