"This is the first time that Bon Jovi has topped the Western music charts since the release week of their album ``The Circle'' in 2009, and the first time that Bon Jovi has topped the charts in about 14 years." (Google Translate)

I've no idea what chart this is either, this sounds like Universal trying to pretend Bon Jovi has a number 1 there. The only chart that matters in Japan is the Oricon chart and Bon Jovi haven't had a hit song on it in a long time.
Their music isn't entirely to blame though, but because Bon Jovi have refused to do promo for their albums in Japan their chart impact has seriously diminished. Japanese people still access their music through TV performance and promo as opposed to radio although streaming and internet radio changed the game there as well.
