Is anyone else listening to this crap right now? That version of "Livin' on a Prayer" was painful to listen to and this "swing" version of "You Give Love a Bad Name" is vomit-inducing at best.

I'm saving it for Deb and I'm not liking it any of the unplugged versions. I think I'll put on JSS or Shaw Blades while it's recording.

This version of "It's My Life" is depressing. I can see now why Sambora was drunk while they filmed this. I'd want to get blasted out of my mind, too, if my band was turning good music into dog crap like this.

Just a wild guess, but I'm sensing you didn't like it, Dave? :lol:

Just put it on, who is singing with him now?

I don't remember who he said it was but it's really not worth remembering, anyway.

While my wife says it's beautiful, it totally took away from what this song is all about.

That's what I was thinking. It's supposed to be a positive, uplifting song and instead it sounded like a funeral dirge.

Lead singer from The All American Rejects who has a pretty good voice actually.

Sounds much better than Jon's nasal, whiny-sounding voice. I used to like his voice but he just sounds horrible now.

I really have always liked this song. Thought it was one of their best..after hearing it this way though, I don't feel like it's my life right now.. :?

Maybe that's it, it's how he has to sing now. It's like a southern nasal draw.

I was really looking forward to this but, yeah, so far, I'm not impressed.
I really don't like these versions of songs that I love.
Is it me, or does BJ seems extra nasally?
oh well. at least I don't feel like I'll be missing anything...

(when is the hour and a half version on CMT?)

Yeah. I'm not sure why he's singing like that since he's not really even attempting to hit any high notes. I always thought it was a way he tried to hit those notes but now that I'm hearing this, maybe that's just the way he always sounds.

Awww bless ya girl!
Image That doesn't sound good. I don't get VH1, but by the posts here it almost sounds like they are messing with the songs like they did on This Left Feels Right? Which I didn't like at all (sorry Red, I know you do :wink: ). Better not be messin with them on the 11th is all I have to say. :twisted: :lol:

Bon Jovi is SOOO over. I used to love them. They've totally lost their way and ANY edge they used to have.
I couldn't BELIEVE when they were on American Idol. They sucked. THE most boring song I'd ever heard.
Jon is just the most boring singer/front guy these days. Richie Sambora was the soul of that band and look
where he's at now...? Ugh!

OK...Now this one sounds good, but it's not even a Bon Jovi tune.

You must be reading my might. Again, I was just about to post that this sounded good because it's sounds like it should. I have always liked this song. And, Jon doesn't sound like he has so much nasal going on, on this one.
Closing song for Pay It Forward. Also used in a lot of 9-11 footage.
Yeah, lots of time on my hands being sick for two years.... :roll:
