Default Your entire single choices

Something for you guys to think about!!!! going through every band album, you have 3 choices of single to release, dosent matter if they were chosen, or if they would be good choices, its what you would choose, when it comes to crossroads choose which of the 2 you would release, and for the ultimate collection which of the 4 you would choose

these would be mine:

runaway
love lies
burning for love

only lonely
tokyo road
hardest part is the night

livin on a prayer
wanted dead or alive
you give love a bad name

bad medicine
born to be my baby
ill be there for you

keep the faith
bed of roses
dry county

always
someday ill be saturday night

these days
something to believe in
hey god

its my life
just older
one wild night

undivided
love me back to life
bounce

have a nice day
who says you cant go home
i am

we got it goin on
any other day
i love this town

work for the working man
loves the only rule
happy now

what do you got?
this is love this is life

post away folkes, i know some favourites will be missed out, but i chose 3 based on the last few albums releasing 3 on average singles

I think that Bon Jovi would be much "bigger" and more respected band with the right singles.They've made some HUGE mistakes with latest singles and that's why they're not so popular(on tv,radio,press...)
I have no problem with 80's and 90's singles so I'll go just for this decade

Crush:
It's my life
One Wild Night
Thank You For Loving me
Say It Isn't So

Bounce:
Bounce!!!
Undivided!!!
Missunderstood
Everyday

HAND:
DIRTY LITTLE SECRET!!!
Have A Nice Day
Last Man Standing
NOTHING

LH:
Make A Memory
Any Other Day
Walk Like A Man

Circle:
Brokenpromiseland!!
Love's The Only Rule!!
We Weren't Born To Follow
Work For The Working Man

GH:
What Do You Got
This Is Love, This Is Life!!!
No Apologies

I'll just go with Crush onwards to because the singles in the 80's/90's were all massive:

CRUSH

It's My Life (whatever you think of it, it was the right song for the right time)
One Wild Night
Mystery Train (seems to get a lot of stick here but it's a great pop song)

BOUNCE

The Distance (should have been lead single That soaring chorus perfect for radio)
Undivided (Not my fave track but would have shown the world they can still rock)
Right Side Of Wrong

HAVE A NICE DAY

Novocaine (would have been massive and like KTF when it came out, a lil different for the band)
Dirty Little Secret (should never have been just a bonus track)
Have A Nice Day (would've been fine as 3rd single)

LOST HIGHWAY

No standout clear singles on this record...they probably did right with Lost Highway first.

THE CIRCLE

Love's The Only Rule (Should have been lead single. Would have been the biggest hit of the decade)
Brokenpromiseland (wrong not to release the best track on the record)
Work For The Working Man (Whatever you say, I think it would work if ppl knew the damn track)

Not particularly the song I love, but more so the songs I think would have made good single choices...

Bon Jovi
1. Runaway
2. Roulette
3. Get Ready

7800
1. Only Lonely
2. Hardest Part Is The Night
3. Always Run To You

Slippery
1. Prayer
2. Bad Name
3. Wanted
4. Never Say Goodbye
5. Wild In the Streets

New Jersey
1. Bad Medicine
2. Born to Be My Baby
3. I'll Be There For You
4. Blood on Blood
5. Lay Your Hands On Me

Faith
1. In These Arms
2. Keep the Faith
3. Bed of Roses
4. I Believe

These Days
1. Something for the Pain
2. This Ain't A Love Song
3. These Days
4. Damned

Crush
1. It's My Life
2. One Wild Night
3. Thank You For Lovin Me
4. Just Older

Bounce
1. Everyday
2. Undivided
3. The Distance
4. Bounce

Have a Nice Day
1. Have a Nice Day
2. I Want to Be Loved
3. I Am
4. Dirty Little Secret

Lost Highway
1. Whole Lot Of Leavin
2. Any Other Day
3. The Last Night
4. Lost Highway

The Circle
1. Love's the Only Rule
2. Superman Tonight
3. When We Were Beautiful
4. We Weren't Born to Follow

Greatest Hits
1. This Is Love This Is Life
2. No Apologies
3. What Do You Got?

I think the most weird single choices by the band have been Make a Memory and Say It Isnt So... both are not the typical Jovi song, and probably not the most radio/single friendly songs. I love them both though and am glad each had their own levels of good success.

Agreed. All these 3 songs would have been good single releases.
