I feel Bad Medicine is very underrated and it’s also my favorite song.

Runaway. Everything else sucks. He shot his wad with his first release, much like John Cougar with I Need A Lover.

I didn’t downvote btw. Not a fan but no problem with people liking him.

ETA: Also btw, like Degas, I wasn’t trying to be a dick, although my post looks kinda dickish. Sorry.

Jon Bon Jovi(Bongiovi) is the perfect example of someone who stepped on a lot of people to make his way to the top. Everyone else in Bon Jovi is basically considered a hired gun including Richie Sambora in his entire tenure in the band. He got a big break with his good looks & a catchy song(Runaway) to get a record deal & he formed the band with local NJ musicians.

They put out 2 below average albums before they went to Desmond Child(look him up & see what he did for so many bands & singers) who helped them write Slippery When Wet which had hit after hit & put them into the stratosphere of rock. Ask bands who Jon helped. He demanded their publishing to help them get record deals. When you give up your publishing you give up permanent paychecks for the rest of your life if you put out successful hits.

Never has anyone with such average vocal talent gotten so far because of his looks. It was the 80's. Looks were very important. He can't sing. Period. I saw them live on the New Jersey tour in 1989 with Blue Murder opening at the Monroe Civic Center & Blue Murder blew them off the stage. Of course all the women loved Bon Jovi based off the hits but they were very mediocre/average live. He can't sing anymore. His voice is shot now. Look up Youtube footage of their last tour a few years ago. It is embarrassing. They won't tour again. The good thing is he is very philanthropic & does a lot of good things & give to many charities.

Some artists are not threadworthy and this is one of them.

I will put one in there. It is Dead or Alive. Of course their Music is cheesy and they are probably on the Mt Rushmore of Hair Metal.

Runaway, followed by Wanted Dead or Alive, followed by In And Out of Love.

The rest of their catalog is mostly garbage.

Runaway is awesome

Let It Rock is very underrated.

Never Say Goodbye was a great song to put on while making out in a pick up truck on the turnrow back in 1987.
