This is a band so capable of producing hits that they don't need any excessive guitar virtuoso in the group (and at this point we didn't really know what treasure do they have in the person of Richie Sambora), nor any flashy element, no he-can-sing-the-attic-and-basement vocalist (Jon was a great singer, though). There are only catchy songs, maybe some of the melodies are a little sugary to be of really lasting value, but I like most of them. Me: You know how in “You Give Love a Bad Name” Jon Bon Jovi sings “shot to the heart and you’re to blame”? Well what I want to know is if he got shot in the heart how come he’s still singing? Wouldn’t that make him a zombie?a b Oricon Album Chart Book: Complete Edition 1970–2005. Roppongi, Tokyo: Oricon Entertainment. 2006. ISBN 4-87131-077-9. Christgau, Robert (1990). "B".

NS: You can’t fight Big Radio. Or Big Vinyl. So we’re doing what we can. Conducting tests with laboratory rats to see if we can come up with an answer, a cure, some kind of hope we can extend to the millions of people out there who hate themselves for singing along with “Wanted Dead or Alive” and “You Give Love a Bad Name.”But to return again to the subject of Bon Jovi as disease–I’m not the only one who thinks the band of Jersey boys is a major public health hazard. I called the Centers for Disease Control and spoke to Nathan Strok, who’s been spearheading their Bon Jovi task force since the mid-eighties. That said, I never–and I know I sound just like those people on TV commercials talking about horrible contractable diseases–thought it could strike me. I was certain I possessed the necessary modicum of native intelligence and impeccable musical taste to serve as a prophylaxis against Bon Jovi. I was sure it only afflicted those who in some way “deserved it.”
