Default Feelings Towards Bells Of Freedom

How does everyone feel about Bells of Freedom? Has it grown on you? Or does it still feel like the boring waltzy kinda song that you skip everytime. I've personally never hated it but I find myself really liking it now. It's not a Bon Jovi epic, but I feel as if it holds its own.

I really love it. I've loved it since the beginning. I've never thought of it as a "waltzy" song but I'm listening to a waltz right now so I'd listen to it even if I did think of it as "waltzy"

I think Jon's voice is very powerful in this one and I'm still a little bit miffed they didn't play it at the show I went to

I love it and have from the first listen. I loved it when I first heard it when all the songs were up online before the album was released. It was my first favorite after getting the album. I love the lyrics. I love the music. I loved the live bootleg I heard. I think it is a passionate, inspiring song. I think Jon sounded amazing on the live version. I really want to hear it in person on the summer tour.

The all request hour, the girl in the front row has just asked for Blood on Blood, ok, Merry Christmas young lady!" Amazing <3

Wrong forum perhaps?

Anyways, I really like Bells Of Freedom, I think it's one of the stronger songs on the album, both lyrically and in the sort of quiet power of it ... it's a lot more real than say, Welcome

This one I liked from the beginnning. I thought IWBLed, Complicated & Novocaine took more growing. And even then, by like the 3rd or 4th time thru I was hooked.

I think Bells of Freedom is a great song, well suited music, neat solo and the lyrics are different and refreshing than most stuff they've ever done.

I personally think it is one of the better songs on the album.

Still not mad keen on it. It's better than Wildflower, but that's not saying much.
