I don't think this is as difficult to understand as we're making it.
My money is on the Andreas Carlsson having collaborated with the band (like Max Martin did.)
But just as the Swedish press did with It's My Life, they chose to focus the attention and the credit to the local-boy-made-good at the expense of Bon Jovi. And that's probably why Jon was so unhappy with the Swedish press last time round... looks like they're up to the same thing this time around.
Are they just idiots or can they not translate the most basic information provided by the band that the album was being produced by Jon, Richie and Ebbin again? Or are they selectively deaf to the obvious?

Hopefully, the band will provide the songwriting credits this time. But I'm not going to believe the Swedish papers when they're whole spin is about their own with a good dash of disrespect and misrepresentation of Bon Jovi.

Well, I am sure that the band come up with the great idea to put the talkbox in the beginning....to make it sound at least a little bon jovi. So the swedish writer didnt do _everything_ himself....

You know....you fans suck bigtime. You are _the_ most narrowminded ppl i have ever met...in the last week i have that heard by the most of you (thank god, there are ppl who are different) that i must be stupid and so on...because i think "everyday" is a real "¤#% terrible song. It is the most commercial and probably the wrost bj song i've ever heard....and believe me...i heard alot. I've even heard "She don't know me" live....because i have the "¤#% bootleg...

I'm giving up bj for now....this #"% hysteria has gone far enough. Gonna keep to bands where the fans at least have one feet on the ground....

hahaha.... well no they going down to the deepest ground. how long down can you go with out lose your reputation. I think bj passed that line now.

Bon Jovi have becomed a bigger sellout than f*ckin' Metallica. And that's hard, but they have done it.

And hello to Jon, Richie, Tico, David and Hugh if someone of you read this i can tell you: You've lost a fan in me!

I can´t really understand this mess! We all KNOW, and i mean it, that Bon Jovi NEVER would let a song go on an album, which isn´t written by themselves! We all know it. It´s impossible. So I can´t really understand why everbody are so worried. Of course, it sounds terrible and you are afraid that it would be the truth - but it isn´t. I´ve heard Jon saiyng several times that "She don´t know me" is the BJ-song he rates lowest because it´s not, as he says, "his song".
This is no big deal, just that the journalist isn´t very good at cheking his sources and get the right information. Jon would never let this happen, and all of us - the big fans - knows it so ****in' well!
Maybe Jon and Richie are starting a sort of new team with swedish writers - kind of like they had (and still has) with the excellent Desmopn Child. And so long it gives us songs like "It´s my life" and "Everyday" I think we shouldn´t complain too much. Be happy folks!
