Wow, how underrated is this song? I know it sounds somewhat like a pop/love song but when it gets to the Na Na Na Na parts, it just kicks into high gear to be one of the best musical performances of Bon Jovi's career. Richie rips his solo's in this song. Definently his best since Dry County. Anybody agree? If not, tell me why...

The solo is an imitation of the solo in AMAZING by Aerosmith(played by Joe Perry)

Eesh...

She's A Mystery has to be the worst Jovi song ever. But, as you say, it's a matter of preference.

As for Next 100 Years, I love it. The solo sounds nothing like Amazing. That first solo has a bit of an Oasis feel to it, I'd say.

I still don't know what I really think of this song. For a long time, I hated it ... I think that's probably because the verses and chorus are all pretty simple, standard sing-along fare. And I never used to like the "Na Na Na Nas" either. Now I just don't know, it probably is one of the more special songs on the album you've gotta give it that. I still wouldn't say its really anywhere near the standard of Dry County though

Great solo and ending, but the verses and chorus are not that great. They're good, but it's the guitar explosion in the end that makes me really like it.
