Yeah! Bounce and Have a Nice Day was more rocking and better written.

You're talking about the US only!?

In Europe it's been a CD single and charted the Top 10 in most European countries and in 6 of them even reached No. 1.

To me THINFS is lyrically miles ahead of Have A Nice Day.

Agreed. And light years ahead of much of The Circle.

THINFS has no featured songs for me, there is no Undivided, Last Man Standing, Love The Only Rule, Brokenpromiseland.

It is simply better than WAN. Burning Bridges had some songs more interesting as far as lyrics or production; A Teardrop to the Sea, WWYDF, or the rock n roll song I'm Your Man.

I guess it's a matter of taste. Although I love Scars on this Guitar despite Jon's voice. But it's no better than Make A Memory or Bells of Freedom.

Fair enough yah, I think both HAND and THINFS have songs with weak lyrical points. To me THINFS has more high points than HAND does. The Circle was a huge lyrical improvement.

Ok, never knew that. Strange decision, but then again BJ weren't as popular in the US at that time, weren't they?
