There are some really good songs on this release and some major hits they we're in that era. Like: "You Give Love A Bad Name" just like my ex-girlfriend did. Just for you Ma! (Not my mom!) ðĪŠ And the radio hit being "Livin' on a Prayer" I really like the opening to this song with that voice box one of them was using. For me there is two more songs I like much, but no need to know anymore. You can figure it them out later. It is mucho recommended. ðððŧðš

_Slippery When Wet_ was one of the biggest albums of its day. Before its release, synthesizers in metal was treated with skepticism at best and outright scorn at worst. So it's pretty amazing that Bon Jovi kicks off this album with--of all things--an organ solo. That solo is an indication of the rest of the album's aesthetic. Perfectly blending synths with heavy guitars and Bon Jovi's distinctive vocals, _Slippery When Wet_ made keyboards metal. The best examples of this blend are all of the classic hits: "Livin' on a Prayer" and "You Give Love a Bad Name," just to name the most obvious. The strength of the album rests on its great singles, which is basically half of the album. Despite the prolific number of hits, there are a few--rare--misses, such as "Social Disease," which starts off with an unnecessary sexual noises. Otherwise, _Slippery When Wet_ is the quintessential Bon Jovi album and is the best place for a neophyte Bon Jovi fan to start listening. It also acts as a solid jumping-off point for exploring the rest of 80s metal, as its pop-influenced accessibility is pleasing to the general listening public. In short, this is a fantastic album with much to recommend it and with few flaws.Read full review
