[Bobby Van Halen]

Hi guys,After listening to a few samples i didnt like it at all.
But i did manage to buy the cd yesterday and i have to say its not too bad,actually its pretty good.
Stand out tracks for me are..have a nice day,the catchy i wanna be loved,bells of freedom,complicated and in my opionion the best track on the cd..I AM..what do u guys think??

After one listen... its easily better than Bounce...

After two listens... its up there with New Jersey and Crush.

IMHO this could be their best album yet.... I am just totally effed off that only the Japanese release contains the track "These Open Arms"...which is one of the best ballads BJ have ever recorded.

I thought the album was well done. We will never necessarily have Old bon jovi. But this album shows they can still rock and renew their style. Last man standing almost sounds as if it were from the 80s. At least to me. I think the first 6 songs are awesome and the last 6 are ok. I like I am, and a few of the other songs towards the end. I say 'ok' because I need to listen to them more, and I am sure they will grow on me. But definately, I think this album is better than both crush and bounce.

I cannot compare to the ones before those, for it was a different era. and BJ had a differnt style and sound. So I just take it at face value.

I definately love this album though, I have listened to it everyday since I have had it. Fine work they have done.

I have only listened to Have A Nice Day and I do like that song....but I'm not sure about buying the CD.

I bought Crush and Bounce, and thought they were okay. Both, in my opinion had alot fillers, but a few really good songs. I guess with Jovi being one of my favorites but not THE most favorite band, it's hard for me to appreciate the newer stuff. It's not so much that Bon Jovi has "changed their sound." If you take a look back at their catalog, in my opinion, every album sounded different. I think that is why Jovi has stayed on top for so long....

Have listened, bought, and fallen in lurve!!!! Again!!!!

For me this is back to good ole' BJ - much more bouncy, lively and fun!!! Many of the songs on this album will translate well into a live environment!! Have just bought tickets to the first concert at the new Wembley (if they EVER finish building it!!) - Bon Jovi saw out the old Wembley and will see in the new!!!!!! (June 11th if you didn't know and are interested!!)

This album beats the pants off Crush! IMHO!!!
