Funnily enough, I know exactly where you're coming from here - the big hits are so worn out that you really don't want to hear them for a while, and the others like "Let it Rock" are pretty awful even by their standards, but they made a bit of an effort with "Raise Your Hands" and even "Wanted Dead or Alive" - a song about the miseries of being rich, white and famous, but they did it quite well.

This in no way excuses them from "Livin On a Prayer" attempt number two - also known as "It's My Life".
