...finally got around to buy it and listen to it a few times. I am really impressed, i didnt expect much but i really, really like it......When listening to 2 songs in particular "Whats left of me" and "Old habits die hard" i REALLY got the feeling "ahhh finally bon jovi sounds like bon jovi again.."

Especially the former: if you exchange the country-ish parts with single line notes a la bad name or Edge of a broken heart, what do you get??? exactly , a classic sounding BJ song!!! :)

So far i think thta the first 4 tracks arent bad, but for me the album really takes steam from Amen onwards...... albeit Pictures of you is quite a good song, too.......


All in all this is REALLY good and actually the first time i can say for real this sounds like BJ for me again......Didnt really feel that way, as far as whole albums go, since These days......
