The girls who grooved to Slippery When Wet back in 1986 have gotten married and bought SUVs, but Bon Jovi have kept their arena anthems simple and sweaty — so much so that hating the New Jersey quartet seems silly at this point. Have a Nice Day, their ninth studio album, is as reliable as it is contained: Acoustic ballads such as "Bells of Freedom" are vaguely icky, but powerhouse anthems like "I Want to Be Loved" pack almost as much singalong potential as "Livin' on a Prayer" did back in the day. The band even works up some roots rock on "Who Says You Can't Go Home," On the lighter-waver "Welcome to Wherever You Are," Jon Bon Jovi philosophizes like Forrest Gump in leather pants: "Maybe we're all different/But we're still the same." Well put, lad.

“Tonight's the Night”

The lead cut and title track from this girl group's debut album, "Tonight's the Night" was written by 19-year-old bandmember Shirley Owens, who sings lead, and producer Luther Dixon. The band from Passaic, New Jersey met in high school, first calling themselves the Pequellos. The song's frank thoughts about sexual and emotional surrender was racy for the time, but that didn't stop the Chiffons from cutting a similar version immediately after the original came out. "We were the first female group to write some of our own material," band member Beverly Lee recalls. "We did have some say-so in our writing."
