 Great Comeback Album From Bon Jovi! August 7, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I enjoy "Have A Nice Day" by Bon Jovi (my favourite band) a great deal and love all the songs on it [the lyrics to 'Last Cigarette' are certainly true], stand out songs are the opening track, 'Last Man Standing', 'I Want To Be Loved' and 'Who Says You Can't Go home'.
I bought this CD a few days ago being a huge fan of Jon and his band and i wasn't disapointed, if you like decent rock/pop music then be sure to pick up a copy yourself for this is probably one of the best rock masterpieces of the past few years.
 Solid June 18, 2007
Bon Jovi's 3rd of the 2000s and still not worthy of 5 stars. It's solid, and the most consistent they've produced for what seems like ages, but lacks the 'WOW' of previous albums (Keep the Faith for instance). Lots of good songs, 2 or 3 great songs (Last Cigarette, Dirty Little Secret) and a couple of turkeys (Bells of Freedom, Wildflower). It's good, but certainly not great.
One of Bon Jovis Best January 4, 2007

At first I thought that this album was continuing the slide into mediocrity that Bon jovi had begun with "Have A Nice Day"'s predecessor, the under-par "Bounce". However I was wrong. On repaet listening, it became clear that this is Bon Jovi at the very top of their game, with a collection of excellent adult rock songs.
For some reason Bon Jovi will be always be sneered at by music critics, which is unfair. Bon Jovi are one of the best rock bands in the world, and have been for the last 20 years. Sure, the odd lyric is a little clumsy or cliched but the overall production of every song by the band cant be faulted.
And "Have A Nice Day" is no exception. Its filled with the sort of high-quality rock songs twinged with pop that critics darlings such as Coldplay just cant produce. The opening single "Have A Nice Day" is standard Bon Jovi material, a rock track that would really come to life ina an arena. Similarly the other hit single "Who Says You Can't Go Home" is a fist pumper.
The third single "Welcome to Wherever You Are" is a nice song, but it has album track written all over it. It didnt sell particularly well and you get the impression that had one of the albums better songs been chosen as a single, the album would have sold even better.
"Last Man Standing" is another great rock song off the album with some brilliant lyrics, and "Bells of Freedom" harks back to the mature sound Jovi found on their mid-ninties album "These Days". The album lacks a powerful ballad typical of the band (such as "Bed of Roses" or "Always") but "I Want to be Loved" feels like a ballad masquerading as a rock song, and the fushion works impressively well.
Other standout tracks are "I Am" and the bonus track "Dirty Little Secret", in fact its difficult to work out why "Dirty little Secret" wasnt included on the album properly.
Overall "Have A Nice Day" is a great album, and should help keep the Bon Jovi fire burning.
Good album, great songs, but not as good as the old stuff October 23, 2006

Bon Jovi had a bumpy start with the album Bon Jovi, but then shot up with 7800 Degrees Fahrenheit, Slippery When Wet Was a big hit just as New Jersy and Keep the Faith were, and Have a Nice Day has just as good songs on. But it has lost some of the old appeal, like good long guitar solos, and 6 minute songs. Very good album, but could be even better. My favourite tracks are, Have a Nice Day, I Want to Be Loved, Welcome to Wherever You Are, Compicated, Dirty Little Secret and Unbreakable.

I loved this album, I am a life long Bon Jovi fan but that doesn't mean I love everything they have ever done.
This album is a really strong rock album that is fantastic and easily fits in with all the other rock albums out there today by the newer bands.
It is a lot different from their sound of the 80'90's and early 2000. It is more rockier and has a edge to it.
Worth a listen even for those non Bon Jovi fans out there, I think this will really surprize you!!
