In my opinion, this is Bon Jovi's best album
While many people often say an album like 'New Jersey' or 'Slippery When Wet' are Bon Jovi's finest album(s), I am pretty different. In my opinion, their 1984 self-titled debut album is their best and my personal favorite.

I had the cassette of this, and I have just about worn it out. This album is superb. Jon Bon Jovi and company are at their best here. This album, of course, contains one of their most well-known songs to date, 'Runaway.'

Other great songs here are 'She Don't Know Me,' 'Shot Through The Heart,' 'Get Ready,' and another one of my all-time favorite Bon Jovi songs, 'Roulette.'

I would say that if you don't own 'Bon Jovi,' than you are really missing out. If you enjoyed 'Slippery When Wet,' than I can almost guarantee you will love this album.

Overall, I strongly recommend this album for any Bon Jovi fan. This is the band at their best. It sounds just as good in 2008 as it did in 1984.

This is highly recommended for any Bon Jovi fan, whether it be casual, new or die-hard. This is a must own album. An '80s classic.

ENJOY!!!

Love It!
This is the best Bon Jovi CD they ever made. It has almost all of my favorite Bon Jovi songs from back in the day. I love it! My next purchase is Slippery When Wet. :o)

Best Seller!!
I would recommend this seller to anyone at all. The shipping could not have been any quicker and the product was excellent.

Ok, I admit I like this disc!
OK, first off I will admit that I like this disc! Secondly, I still listen to this disc! Now that I got that out of the way, this disc is one of the essential bubble gum pop-rock discs of all time. You can hear that Bon Jovi were going to take off and they basically are the (kings?) of pop-rock. Catchy riffs, catchy tunes, and catchy lyrics are all here. Enjoy this guilty pleasure and I know some metal fans like this disc even if they won't admit it.

What happened to rock n' roll?
Ahh, 1964. A special year in music when the absolute BEST music was also the most popular. This continued throughout most of the 1960's, then the downward spiral began.

Bon Jovi's ongoing popularity makes me feel like being that last human being alive after the invasion of the body and soul snatchers, or being one of those people that were against the Iraq War in 2002, or one of those people who hate reality shows and know that they are scripted, etc. Bon Jovi - terrible, overwrought, overly dramatic, self-important, bombastic, and poorly sung.
