Default Bon Jovi 2000-2003:What a waste of talent!
This was inspired by all those crush/bounce topics.
And I mean it!

They really should be punished for wasting something that I , for example, don't have!

Hmmm....

They should have been punished in record sales, but weren't because we all went out and bought the records... so from their point of view they've done what they need to do

as fans we should (never happen because you can't unite fans like this) refuse to buy albums that reach the lows of bounce and Crush, then the band would have to get their act together

BJ have continued to do very well in album sales...if internet piracy hadnt evolved, they would have easily smashed that 100million sales by now...

Crush and Bounce are my two fave albums btw!

Ahh...but if we don't buy the CD's we don't know how bad they are! It's a catch 22.

only because people like me who hate the album buys it because I like Bon Jovi's music.... If you could get all the fans together, again big if, and say anybody who's not happy with teh album don't buy it, then there would have been problems.

Problem hasn't been in record sales, but in teh quality of the albums. It's enough of a pop album to attract many sales from people who just like a song. It's a "Bon Jovi" album, so people who kind of know of Bon Jovi may buy it, and Bon Jovi has a big fanbase who will just buy whatever old crap they put out. It's not a case of it selling well, it's a case of the quality associated with a Bon Jovi album not being there... Or this is what myself and Devilson seem to think....
