Default Top 10 Bon Jovi videos (according to VH1 Classic)

So they ran a top 10 Bon Jovi episode last week. Sorry if some of these are a bit out of order. Though obviously, I agree with some of the videos in here, I can't believe others made it and others didn't:

1.Prayer
2.Bad Name
3.Wanted
4.Bad Medicine
5.I'll Be There For You
6.Lay Your Hands On Me
7.Born To Be My Baby
8.Runaway
9.In And Out Of Love
10.Wild In The Streets

So, nothing post 1989, which is ridiculous. Where were the following:

Keep The Faith, It's My Life, Always, Bed of Roses, Have A Nice Day

Though I agree on having 1, 3, 4, and 6 on there, the rest could easily be replaced with some of the post long hair videos. And these clearly weren't based on any kind of ranking, as Wild In The Streets was never released as an official video, and Runaway and In and Out of Love got no airplay until after Slippery.

Yeah strange how somebody could actually think "Runaway" was a good video.

In And Out Of Love should've been #1 among those 10.

Where are the awesome Sleep When I'm Dead, Who Says You Can't Go Home (dogman version) and Misunderstood?

Oh come on, PRAYER has a terrible clip. No way it deserves 1. Number 1 should have been Say it Isn't So. But as far as I know, those VH1 lists are really random. It's basically a "10 clips by Bon Jovi" list. Next time it will be just totally different. Oh, and Bad Medicine is one of those milestones in video-history because it was actually filmed by fans.

It's a great video!

But yeah, Florin is right, these lists are basically "top 10 Bon Jovi songs that people are likely to know", although it is rather odd that Keep The Faith, Blaze Of Glory, It's My Life, Always and something off of HAND aren't on there and In And Out Of Love and Wild In The Streets are. I mean, Wild In The Streets wasn't even a single! Plucking some obscure video off SWW: The Videos is quite weird

It's My Life should have been there though, surely.
