Rediscovering KTF
 

I really forgot how much I loved this album until I listened to it last night, I know it's a pretty popular around here. My favorite songs on it are the first 4 + Dry County. IMO the only weak spot is "If I Was Your Mother", I've just never been able to like that song that much. What is everybody else's oppinion on KTF, and favorite songs on it?

I like it a lot. My favourite songs are the first 7 minus "Sleep When I'm Dead".

Same here, I thnk the first seven songs are stellar, have to be in a certain mood for Sleep though but it's still a good song. I also love I Want You, I think it's one of their most underated songs.

If Fear was fleshed out more it could have been a classic and I can totally relate to Blame It On The Love so this album is easily my second favorite of the band's catalouge.

It's the bands best work as far as I'm concerned. It's more a matter of what songs I don't like rather than the ones I do. I don't think there is a bad song on the album. For me the weaker spots are IIWYM, Woman in Love and the verses of I Want You.

LOVE this record. If I Was Your Mother is my favorite. Love the hard rocking sound and Jon's vocals on that one. I also really like as cheesy as others may think it is I Want You. The only song I would have replaced would be Woman In Love.

I also think I Want You is one their most underrated songs.

KTF is special to me because it is the very first Bon Jovi album I went out and bought. I clearly remember going to buy it after a CYO basketball game when I was in 6th grade. I didn't know who Bon Jovi were or any of their songs but I bought the album (on casette!) for one song: Bed of Roses. I was captivated by that song the first time I heard it on the radio. I had never heard a song that had such a gorgeous melody and such meaningful, insanely beautiful lyrics. I was never expecting to love the album as much as I did and I never dreamed I would make the connection with the band that I did. But after KTF I became obsessed with Bon Jovi (especially Jon in the beginning) and bought the back catalog and have never looked back. Who knows if I would have become a fan had it not been for that album?

I Believe, In These Arms, and Dry County were all songs I remember LOVING and playing to death back when I first got it.

And I don't care if it's considered cheesy~ I also LOVE the album and live version of I Want You.. ;)

Ahhhh KTF still my fav BJ album not only because of Dry County but with Save A Prayer, Starting All Over Again, In these Arms .........
There's only one song I skip on it these days and it's Bed of Roses.
