2 Very Special Bon Jovi Projects

This is the best thing they've done since the 1 million boxset!!
It's expensive but it's totally worth it!

I think Full Moon High is River of Love.
Sorry for the double post

Hmm choosing NJ is good decision but my dream is HAND Deluxe Edition.
DLSecret, Unbrekable, TOArms, Nothing and I hope few unrelased.
Demos - Hand, Complicated, Bells, Who Says with Urban, I Want To bl.
We have 9 but they could record more (they had 2 recording sessions).

Hand is my dream but I think real second special edition could be SWW or Crush.

SWW - we have some demos and some oficial tracks can be in different editions. We also have some songs which they gave others like "You re not my lover".

For Sex Sells they recorded 30 songs and 30 more for Crush so it easy to find songs for this edition.

Or maybe.. The Circle.. they hide all demos from this one

This one's kind of tricky. SWW would probably sell the most copies, but it's already gotten the deluxe treatment, so it'd probably get less of an additional exposure than NJ.

Crush - not sure if anybody would be interested in that at all since it's basically It's My Life - The Album to the general public. The Sex Sells demos might bring in a handful of die hards, but actually, these are JBJ solo tracks which have little business being on a band album.

KTF - I'd love it to be the next album, but am not sure how big it'd sell in the US. If they're gonna re-release more albums, it might as well be the next, though

That's 'cause there are none. Jon said that they wrote a couple of songs and recorded them for this album, and that's it. Well, except for This Ain't Love, This Is Life, which wound up on the second Greatest Hits with slightly changed lyrics. I'd imagine more of these new tracks actually trace back to these sessions in some way of form.

Maybe there's some pre-production stuff around, but that won't get too many people excited.

I thought they stopped demoing song altogether after LH(?). And since they didn't spend too much time on recording the last albums, I doubt that there are many unheard songs left.

I think from they working with John Shanks, there are not many outtakes. We can wait a couple of new songs for each album, but nothing more. Crush and Bounce were the last albums they recorded many demos.

In my opinion, I think deluxe edition will launch from SWW, KTF and TD. With luck, we could have at the end of the year a double album with unreleased songs from pre-Crush till WAN.

That's right! John Shanks thinks the secrete to a hit is in the production, which I partially agree with but you still need a good substance which is a well written song with a great hook. This is what has been missing from the past few albums and the reason why everything sounds so similar. But also the reason for the lack of outtakes and b-sides...

SWW - Would love it if they could do something with the basement demos - long shot - but hey, you never know.

Faith - I think there is more from this period. Obviously The Soul Truth being the big one. They would probably recycle songs from the first box but the DVD would include more video of the leaked An Evening With Bon Jovi plus the actual Videos.

TD - Would probably follow the same as the above where a lot would be recycled from prior b-sides and the box but the DVD could be the entire Live From London concert(s).

HAND - What could be cool about this one, is the fact that they could release it with the original leaked album. Who Says with Keith Urban, the demos, and then the other tracks with that more raw sound. That would be really cool.

Crush - I think this could be really cool if the bonus CD was the original Sex Sells.

After that LH - TC -WAN - Who cares.... They also mentioned live material so that could be the bonus CD for them as well. And same for the above. What they lack in demos could be made up with rare live material.

One last thought and hope for the NJ release... They add extra footage to AAA and that's were Cadillac Man shows up.

Where exactly did you read about that extra footage? Would be cool if it were true, thought I don't get the excitement about Cadillac Man - it's got a nice melody to it, but it's not *that* great a song for me...

I'd definitely want a HAND super deluxe edition with Nothing and the original versions of the songs (plus any other demos we might or might not already have) - one of my favorite albums of all time. KTF would be great, too. Concerning SWW: are there really good-sounding demos and not that totally raw basement "shit" (still great, but barely listenable to)? I've never seen or heard any...

Not exactly HQ, but definitely listenable.

Actually, since Lost Highway sold very well, I'm afraid it might actually be a good candidate for a re-release as well... maybe just a cheap bundle with the handful of b-sides plus live stuff, though.

These aren't the "basement demos" he's referring about.
