150. Bon Jovi / Bounce. 2002. 3.5/5

You've got to be impressed with Bon Jovi's ability to survive in their market, and yet continue to make diverse albums without alienating their fan base. It is remarkable that this band is enjoyed and followed by teeny-boppers, rock fans and metal heads – three different genres of music listeners, and yet bodies of each love Bon Jovi.

Bounce is another excellent mix of their rock headbanging tunes and their rock ballad tunes. It takes some talent to be able to write both types of songs, and mix them into the same album without losing the feel for the whole disc. Bon Jovi have been doing it for years, but not always as successfully as I think they have done it here.
My favourites here are Undivided, Everyday, Hook Me Up and Bounce.

Rating : Another easy album to listen to. 3.5/5
