One of my favourite lines ever. It gave me one of those "0o0o0o0o0o0o" feelings when I first heard it.

Evidently I've never listened to the lyrics properly before

That is a genuinely poignant line

many make a big deal out of it.

but i had enough of bon jovi balads.
'always', 'this aint a love song', 'silent night', and 'i want you' are the only jovi balads i listen to.

as for the HAND b-sides, novocaine and dirty little secret, those would make some of Bon Jovi's top songs ever.

Are you saying Novocaine and Dirty Little Secret are b-sides or are you mentioning them alongside the b-sides as top Bon Jovi songs?

Completely agree.

Am I the only one who thinks Last Man Standing is over-rated? I really like it but it seems to be one of the favourites and there's better tracks on the album IMO.

Nah, LMS isn't over-rated.
LMS is a great song and i think its under-rated.
It's a great rocky song.

ALong with HAND it's probably the most out and out fast paced rawk song they've done since These Days. Which is what we need more of!

Yep, definitely.

The piano version of Last Man Standing is better. :D

It is nice but....the rock version is much better :p

PLUS, Last Man Standing is an angry song, so it suits rock better.

I don't agree with that, but I do think Last Man Standing is overrated. It does have a nice riff though, so I'll give it that.

How is Last Man Standing underrated? Everyone's always saying how great it is!

Despite the low vocals (FFS Tico could sing it!) LMS is a very good song, in my opinion. Good to have a song that rocks now and again.
