Which tracklist you mean? There are 2 of them and neither of them is official. But if I look at the titles on the list that has 12 songs, there's probably 3 ballads. But I really hope that the album is NOT filled with them. 2 I can handle, and maybe even 3 but 4 is way too much. 0 would be ideal for me.

I would guess 2 or 3 real ballads and a few mid-tempo songs to balance out the rock tracks. One great thing about Bon Jovi is all the songs on their albums don't sound alike--like some other artists whom I won't name so as not to insult their fans.

I'm not a real fan of the ballads (although they are much better than ballads from other bands) I think it would be okay to have 2 ballads but I don't want them to be released as singles. Because then I have to listen to them on the radio over and over again and will hate them after 2 weeks. But that's not gonna happen. I think they will definitely release one as a single. And I think from their (business) point of view that's just the right thing to do.

rumours go to two ballads a a single release, namely "misunderstood" and "all about loving you"
for me i don't like ballads too much- the more rock songs- the better it is

I'm hoping as few as possible. Hopefully, it will only be in the 2-3 range.

I think there will be 2 or 3 since a lot of people love the ballads. If you ask me I could live without any or at least without such power ballads as Always and Stay. I like the old ones like I'll be there for you.

I think one or two true ballads and maybe two slower songs like wanted, dry county, wild is the wind or something to believe in, something like that, which don't count as ballads to me. I hope Misunderstood is a song like that (they said it's not a true ballad so)
And in the interview posted yesterday, Jon said there's going to be some epic songs on the album so.....

I hope there is maximum one ballad and then a few midtempo songs. But I guess 2-3 is more realistic.
