Default Random piece of trivia
I was bored earlier, and so tested something, and discovered THIS:

Keep The Faith is the BJ album with the longest average song length, about 5 minutes 25 seconds

These Days is in second place. Those two are the only band albums that have an average song length of over 5 minutes.

Crush is in third place. New Jersey is fourth, 7800 fifth, Slippery 6th, Bon Jovi 7th. Bounce has the shortest average song length at about 4 minutes 6 seconds

Wasn't that pointless?

Keep On Rockin'

Well you've contradicted yourself there.

Bounce has the shortest time average due to Everyday. KTF has the longest because of Dry County.

Walrus, since you're doing such a good job of giving us pointless information on BJ albums, could you give us the number of dirty words in each album? I only know a few.

BJ-0
7800F-0
SWW-1
NJ-1
Crush-3
OWN-2
TLFR-1

I'm including the lighter swears as well as the heavy ones. I already know TD is gonna win this one by a landslide.

There are 7 video's from Keep The Faith. They are from the first 7 tracks.
There are 6 video's from New Jersey. Five of them are track 1 - 5. (#6 is IBTFY, track 10)
There are 5 video's from These Days. Again track 1 - 5 on the record.
Same goes for Crush: 3 video's, track 1 - 3 (released in that order)

Since NJ every band studio album (except for CR which is a best of) minus bonustracks had 12 songs.

More random trivia. The shortest song to make it onto a Bon Jovi album is Rode Cowboy Ride. The second is Everyday. Everyday is a little more than twice as long as Ride Cowboy Ride.

RCR is also the only song released as a mono track.
