 If one were to put Slippery When Wet or New Jersey in the CD player, and then directly after These Days, the initial reaction would be to think it’s not the same band.

 "Hey God" is definitely one of the heaviest songs ever written by the four fists of Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora.

These Days marks a pivotal 1995 shift for Bon Jovi towards a softer, more mature sound dominated by ballads and mid-tempo tracks. The album explores themes of love, loss, and faith with insightful lyrics and notable compositions like 'Hey God' and the title track. Despite mixed North American reception, it achieved massive international success and critical acclaim. The review highlights the band's growth and the album’s blend of rock and singer-songwriter elements. Explore Bon Jovi's These Days and experience their mature, heartfelt rock evolution today!
