The hope of March...

All the hype for one bonus song meanwhile ever album prior had an average of 4 to 6

We got royally treated with THINFS, yeah. But WAN had 2, Lost Highway had 3, HAND had 3. Crush and Bounce are the exceptions but we're hitting the time period were CD singles were a much much much bigger deal than now. I don't know we got 4-6 on average though unless you're including a pre-HAND.

He's wearing that old jacket.
He said this about Blood In The Water: "The title is certainly was done by him (Mark Knopfler)"

I'll stand by my 4 to 6 (AVERAGE).

Even though Hallelujah was a cover, it was officially released so I have 4 for Lost Highway

WAN had 5 if you include Burn With Me or 4 official (With These 2 hands, Echo, Not Running, Old Habits)

TC/GH combo got 5

And yes, I'm including the Prerelease for HAND.

Crush, Bounce, THINFS were 6 plus each

I guess I'm arguing 2 points:

One, is that bonus tracks are something we have been accustom to for the past 20 years regardless of how we got them. Most were official and a couple were leaked.

Two, we didn't need to rely on an 80 dollar subscription to just get one song.

But has Jon 100% said you’re gonna get Halo? Not sure he has.

I think the reason why there’s not any other bonus tracks from 2020 is because of DWYC and AR - they were added so now 2 regular tracks are classed as bonus tracks in Luv Can and Shine.

Well, if we still had 1995 I'd be excited as hell about an unknown bonus track.
But knowing the releases of the last decade, an outtake from 2020 doesn't make me nervous anymore.

nervous?
We already listened Halo; we know it's a good song, it's just that even when Jon mentioned that one on The Experience, he's not releasing the Bon Jovi version until now.
I was not excited at all with that Bed Of Roses, even in Love month.

Say what you will, I'm excited to hear Halo.

I dont think anything is ever "100%" but Halo was one of the many things mentioned when he introduced The Experience.

You could also put a * next to the 2 bonus tracks on 2020... For starters they were part of the initial release... which were then pulled off because they weren't "topical" enough and then finally put back on to be called Bonus Tracks so the listener wouldn't get confused. Also, 2020 ended up with 12 Tracks which is pretty standard for most albums... The fact that Jon only wanted to release 10 initially is still pretty baffling. So Jon might be calling them Bonus tracks but as far as I'm concerned they really aren't in a traditional sense because they were intended for the initial release.
