Welcome to the UMAs where we celebrate artists and bands that are generally completely hated and reviled by the cool kids of this forum. Here you will find all those artists that you have been advised over and over not to like by the ones with impeccable taste in music. So don't look for B&C favorites like Radiohead, Arcade Fire or Sigur Ros in here. In fact, indie music is banned in this thread. The more mainstream an artist is, more is the chance you will find them featured in this series. Now let's go ahead and celebrate extremely popular mainstream music with the UMAs!
For our second installment, the featured band is Bon Jovi. Hailing from Sayreville, New Jersey, the band has spanned 3 decades and sold over 120 million albums worldwide!
Here are some choice song picks: (I'll skip the Tommy and Gina ones just cos they're way overplayed anyway. Oh and in a couple of these, embedded play doesn't work so you'll have to click on the title and go watch them at YouTube)
In the beginning, there was hair...
YouTube - Runaway - Bon Jovi
Then there were cowboys...
YouTube - Bon Jovi - Wanted Dead or Alive
YouTube - Bon Jovi - 'Blaze Of Glory'
But not everything was simply macho posturing! Here's some lesser known serious material...
YouTube - Bon Jovi - Someday I'll Be Saturday Night
YouTube - Bon Jovi - Dry County
In the end though, everyone will remember this graduation anthem...
YouTube - Bon Jovi- Never Say Good Bye
All said and done, my personal favorite will always be...
YouTube - Bon Jovi - Keep The Faith
Enjoy!
Oh, and as the old saying goes...
If you can't say anything nice, FUCK OFF!
Next up: This guy originally wanted to call his second album "Hasn't Heard of You Either" due to the disappointing sales of his first album.
