100,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Can't Be Wrong... (The Premiere Collection/+DVD) [Digipak] - Bon Jovi

...also that they had sold 100,000,000 albums. The cover and title is a take on the Elvis Presley compilation '50,000,000 Elvis fans can't be wrong', with the band even wearing gold lame suits! Included in the set is also a booklet with many fans testimonials and explanations and thoughts from Jon Bon Jovi on the band's career and songs. What surprised me the most about this collection is just what good value for money it really is, as you are getting ...
...from two tracks which have appeared on movie soundtracks. All of these are above average and excellent quality, and I couldn't help but wonder why some of the tracks featured did not end up on Bon Jovi's studio albums! Although Jon Bon Jovi himself once said he has made some errors of judgement when deciding which tracks to put on their albums, due to the amount of songs Bon Jovi write and sometimes due to a track not fitting in with the 'theme' ...

Review of 100,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Can't Be Wrong... (The Premiere Collection/+DVD) [Digipak] - Bon Jovi

I was prompted to write this review as I am listening to the album right now! (Someday I'll Be Saturday Night.....what a song!)

Review of 100,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Can't Be Wrong... (The Premiere Collection/+DVD) [Digipak] - Bon Jovi

This boxset was released in November 04, to mark 20 years of JBJ playing together, and comprises of outtakes and B-sides from previous albums. When I was buying this (I dowloaded it, so didn't get the DVD unfortunately), I thought I was paying for a lot of demos and 'prototype' songs, but it was a good price (£6.99 the lot), so I was hoping it might yield a few good songs. I was pleasantly surprised when I found was that almost every song was of ...
...good enough for single release. Although the boxset is listed under 'heavy metal', something I wouldn't really agree with, as this transcends genres, the brilliant thing about Bon Jovi is that he can carry off any track with real emotion and make every song sound very different - not an easy feat considering there are 50 songs on this boxset. The music moves from piano ballads, and acoustic guitar, to lekky and bass, with some songs that seem to ...
