Thorn in my side, even more so live with the extended outro.

Ah it's horrible because I think 'The Circle' is their weakest album and I have never listened to 'What About Now' all the way through.

I'd go with 'Brokenpromiseland' or 'I'm With You'.

If I could only choose one, it would probably be Pictures of You, followed closely by Superman Tonight. I like Because We Can, too, because it seems to continue the Tommy and Gina story even though I don't know that anyone has said specifically that it does.

But that could all change tomorrow. It's hard to miss me with Bon Jovi - I like 'em all! So tomorrow it might be Brokenpromise Land or LTOR.

Brokenpromiseland, but I could just as easily go with LTOR too. Still like the Circle.

I chose That's What the Water Made Me. The other alternative would have been "We Weren't Born to Follow".

Has to be When We Were Beautiful. That's literally the only song I'd rate higher than 6/10 across the last two albums, with the possible exceptions of Amen or the Fighter.

That's not to say the rest is bad, but there's a metric tonne of wasted potential, especially with the more upbeat material. Both the Circle and What About Now are full of great songs smothered by production, in their own ways. Have a garage band play That's What the Water Made Me and it'd be a classic.
