Lost Highway by Bon Jovi

Pros: great straightforward story telling acoustic tunes
Cons: some crossover appeal, whatever

Bon Jovi venture into new musical territory and have inevitably taken the Lost Highway to mainstream country pop rock land. OK, not so fast, that might not be entirely accurate or fair to Bon Jovi, but the reality of it is that ...

Pros: Vocals that are out of this world, band, production!
Cons: Too country for some, Summertime is a miss.

To realise that it has been 20 years since SLIPPERY WHEN WET album was released makes me look back for two decades of being a fan and thankfully Bon Jovi has not gone too artistic or fancy or out of whack! Jon Bon Jovi still comes across as an ...

Pros: Odd concept on the surface, but it works
Cons: As syrupy and sentimental as every other Bon Jovi album

Back when Bon Jovi ruled supreme in the pop metal world, who would have guessed the band would have embraced country music 20 years later? And who would have guessed the band would crank out a country album that still sounded like, well, Bon Jovi? ...

Pros: Fun music
Cons: Not all the tracks are great

First, let me start this review by saying that in order to enjoy the new Bon Jovi CD, LOST HIGHWAY, you must already be a Jon Bon Jovi fan. That being said, it is a great CD for what it is. Play this CD in the car during your daily commutes and you ...

Pros:

You can sing along to every song and most are really good!

Cons: There aren't more than 12 songs on the CD.

I don't agree with one of the other reviews. I have never been a fan of Bon Jovi until I heard the song "Make a Memory." That song, alone, made me purchase this CD. Usually when I buy a CD, I regret it because there is only one or two songs that I ...

Pros: Well thought out lyrics with lots of catchy alternative rock/country hooks.
Cons: Track #5 sounds like a forced attempt to recapture the youth of yesterday.

Hoping to find a summer soundtrack, I picked up the Bon Jovi's latest album "Lost Highway" after seeing it on the Billboard Top 10. The album kicks off on a high note with the first two songs "Lost Highway" (#1) and "Summertime" (#2). "Lost Highway" ...

Pros: New sound. New songs. New theme.
Cons: Not enough upbeat rock songs.

I grew up in the eighties. I was introduced to Bon Jovi through their “Slippery When Wet” album. I particularly enjoyed their edgy rock sound. Recently, I’ve started listening to their music again. I liked their country/rock mix on their ...

Pros: Very WELL written, Soulful, Mature
Cons: You can't decide the best song on the album

I have been a Bon Jovi fan since they were the long-haired band of 80's. I have been more and more devoted as the years have gone on because of the maturity and passion that comes in their music. I hadn't thought much about Lost Highway at first - the ...

Pros: Bon Jovi still has it
Cons: Its country based

This was a little tough to swallow, i mean hey, its country for goodness sake. I was skeptical at first, being a log time Bon Jovi fan, but I have to say he doesnt cease to amaze me. The tone of music and the words collaborate so well. It IS a great album for the summer. I dont particulary care for Leann Rymes, otherwise Bon Jovi is still steamrolling ahead.
