I haven't listened to this album in a long time. I am surprised that i'm enjoying a lot of it. Somewhere in my mind I had this notion that LIVE had just quit rocking the last few albums but that's not true. Now SFBM was way too poppish for my taste but BOP was pretty good. I'm ok with Heaven as a single but Run Away was a horrible choice. That has to be one of my least favorite LIVE songs of all time. I think She or Like I Do would have been much better.

Of the 13 tracks on the album, only 3,4,5, and 12 should have been left off in my opinion.

What do y'all think of this album?

I think there's an old BOP thread on the board where people were saying the same thing about the album.

For me I put this album in the first time, the night it was released, and loved it. The more I listened to it the less I liked it and about 2 weeks after it's release I didn't really care for it as a whole anymore.

Personally I still like "Like I Do" and "Sweet Release".

I never thought "Heaven" was really"single" quality and didn't like it because they releeased it as a single. I think though, if it were just always a general track it wouldn't be fabulous but I wouldn't have thought of it as a song I disliked.

I still think V is by far, hands down, without competition, the worst album this band ever released.
