Bounce - Old Name?
 
G'day all, hows it going?

I was reading some old threads and I found something about the name 'Bounce' was chossen by the fans. If this was true what were the other names we had to pick from?

Cheers Matt.

P.S: By the way I'd like to thank everyone who answed my other threads. My heart and mind are at rest. :D

If I remember correctly it was open - you just typed in your title rather than selecting from a list.

You could pick:

One
Bounce

and then I can't remember the others....

You're right Nige. People could vote for the album title on BonJovi.com, Bounce won on a ratio of 7:1.

I think one of the other names was "One".

I remember...you could choose between:

One
Won
Bounce

or your own suggestion..

I think Still Standing was an option too. :wink:

Captain_jovi 07-26-2003 04:25 PM

was it? I only remember those three choices..oh well..

letitrock 07-26-2003 04:53 PM

it was basically a big joke

they said it would be called bounce and then said "oh no let's let the fans choose"

here's your choices

Bounce - "we strongly recommend this one ;)" ! - was implied
One
Won

(ie 2 even more rubbish options)

then there was an "other" option

and what are the odds of 10000000 people all choosing for an other option something like "take the high road"

or even "sex sells" or anything like that

zero

ie a big joke and marketing/PR scam

mmhmm i agree letitrock..I remember everyone bitching about how Bounce was a crappy title a year ago, and it wins 7/1? I call bullshit

Compared to "One" which would share titles with Metallica and U2 and "Won" which is far worse than "Bounce"?

I think people voted for the lesser of 3 evils.
