Default Best Post 2000 Bonus Track?

Is it just me or are most of the Bonus Tracks from Crush to LH better than majority of the actual album tracks?

Dirty Little Secret is my 2nd favourite track from HAND and Lonely is my 4th favourite track from Lost Highway. I guess the style of Lonely suits being a bonus track, but its such a good song. It gives off a These Days album vibe. Reminds me of Diamond Ring.

Walk Like A Man shouldve been replaced with One Step Closer and These Open Arms shouldve been replaced with Wildflower.

I also very much enjoy Unbreakable, Neurotica, and Put The Boy Back In Cowboy.

Not so much a fan of the Bounce bonus tracks, but then again I dont really know them that well. I Could Make A Livin Out Of You from Crush is a little average as well IMO.

I agree, most of the bonus tracks are better than the album tracks themselves, it's insane XD

I choose Walk Like a Man.

The best bonus track of them all isn't there: Nothing!

You're right about that.

The songs from the poll... They could make one, freakin'-good album. I know they are different and may not fit each other, but guess it would work anyway. And could simply be the best Jovi record of century.

I voted for Neurotica, but Lonely follows closely behind. I find their two of the most honest songs the band have written, in the sense that they don't sound forced.

Neurotica is THE best Bon Jovi rocker of the 21st Century thus far. Full of an attitude that's kinda missing from most BJ songs of late.

Lonely is, for me, the best ballad they've done this decade aswell. Like I said earlier, honest and sincere and echoes back to the These Days/Destination Anywhere sound.

Sadly though, I can't imagine these as actual album tracks, but I'm glad they're there.
