Default Runaway
Who else absolutely loves the piano version of Runaway? I think it's excellent, the piano is perfect and I thought Jon's vocals were really good on it. I'm not saying I prefer it over the electric version on Bon Jovi, but I still think it's a great version and should definitely get played once more again.

i'd be so pissed off if i was at a concert and they played it live , it just kills the atmosphere , the electric version is miles better!

Even if it took the spot of something that kills the atmosphere already e.g (You Want To) Make A Memory?

Does Memory really kill the atmosphere over there?
Anyway I like the piano version, but I'm not the biggest fan of any version of Runaway.

Not exactly, but it's just as slow as Runaway piano version, just not as good IMO

Ah, so that's where we disagree..
I love Memory, think it's one of the best Jovi songs post-'00, and that's from someone who likes most of the band's post-'00 stuff.

I think both versions work well but I prefer the electric version. I thought the version in 2000 was very good and would like to hear it again sometime
