Bon Jovi is a farce, other than the fact that the RRHoF has been dead to me for some time. People are too hard on Bon Jovi. Underneath the "hair metal" surface they were just good, solid, pop songwriters. I think they've held up better than most every other band from that era and genre. Not sure if I'd consider them a HOF-status band, but I can understand it given their (lasting) popularity. There is a reason they managed to survive the 90s Nirvana/alt-rock onslaught. Never really considered them pop, probably due to how seriously they seem to take themselves. Actually their quality to seriousness ratio seems astonishingly low to me.
