Default "I Want You" - does anyone love this song?
Remember? "I Want You" from the album Keep the Faith?
Am I the only one who loves this song?
I'm only saying this because here in this forum, I've never heard anyone talking about it.
Whats your oppinion?

Aloha !

I think it's shit and am glad they've forgotten about this song as well. The worst ballad coming from the nineties.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

I like it, good song, but not mindblowing.

Used to really love it, now I rarely listen to it unless I'm listening to the whole album through. It did mean a lot to me at a particular point in time so I'm not going to slam it but there are certainly much better songs on KTF even if Dry County wasn't on it.

I don't really like it. I listen to it if listening to the whole of Keep THe Faith but it's a song I've never been a fan of.

I think it's one of the weakest Bon Jovi ballads ever, but it's far from shit!

I LOVE the chorus in this, one of my favorite in any Bon Jovi song. I think the reason it's been forgotten about is because it's on the same album as In These Arms and Bed Of Roses. I still really like it personally.

I still love it after hearing it a million times I actually prefer it to Always, but I thnk that might just be me being a weird Scot.

It's got more punch than a lot of the later ballads so I still rate it above any from crush onwards.
