The ‘Big Mistake’ Jon Bon Jovi Made With The Album ‘7800° Fahrenheit’

Bon Jovi fans have been following the band’s hit music for decades. And while recent albums haven’t been the mainstream successes the group’s early work was, Bon Jovi — and its titular frontman — continues to get better with age. So fans might be shocked to hear that Bon Jovi himself thinks he made a key mistake with the band’s second album release, 7800° Fahrenheit.

How Bon Jovi avoided the sophomore slump on its second album

Bon Jovi released its self-titled debut in 1984. And the album gave the band a solid start in the music industry, thanks to hit songs like “Runaway” and “She Don’t Know Me.” But many bands burst onto the charts with a hit album, only to fade into obscurity as soon as their proverbial 15 minutes are up. Thankfully, Bon Jovi didn’t fall prey to the so-called “sophomore slump.”
