Default Unexpected Bon Jovi songs

I’ve heard a few Bon Jovi songs lately in unexpected places so I was curious what experiences others have had of this. I’m talking about hearing deep cuts in odd places. Obviously you can expect to hear a song like LOAP at a wedding, but what are your weird ones? I’ll start.

A little while ago I was in a McDonald’s in the middle of Sydney CBD and after a few songs from the Top 40 (as you’d expect to hear somewhere like that) If That’s What It Takes came on - and then after it finished right back to Top 40 songs. I just thought that was bizarre.

Anyone have any others?

I was at a show during which Bad Medicine wasn't played.

This 2019 New Year, I went to a very small beach far from all in Lima, first time in this place and there was only one restaurant in the entire place, regular latin music sounding there and then Keep The Faith, then back latin music (definitely odd)
On the other hand, Livin’ On A Prayer always sounds in Brazil airport

In a hotel in Bulgaria, between all the house music, all of a sudden there was Brokenpromiseland. Definitively surprised me

Sitting on a patio a few years ago in a Toronto restaurant that plays satellite radio, lot of Top 40 hits then "We All Fall Down".

Czech rock station has a program every day when they play two songs by one band. One is a hit and the other one something unknown. So when BJ were on, they played Hearts Breaking Even (and Keep The Faith).

Sadly, the only songs I hear on the radio here are LOAP, IML and KTF. Hardly unexpected. But then, while I was watching some acoustic gig once, the guy did Love For Sale and I had a blast! So good
