David Bryan / Rashbaum[edit]

Unless it's been changed on subsequent reissues, the keyboard player is credited on this album with his given name of "David Rashbaum". Should the personnel bit not be altered to reflect that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.31.97.129 (talk) 17:50, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shot through the heart[edit]

Isn't the official name of the song "You Give Love a Bad Name"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.69.61.97 (talk) 23:02, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your thinking of the other song, "Shot through the heart & your to blame, you give love a bad name" Where this is "Shot through the heart its all part of this game we call love" Got it?? 74.199.98.45 (talk) 07:23, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Genre[edit]

I think it's Glam Rock instead of Glam Metal.. This album is too soft and happy for metal..--188.26.49.48 (talk) 11:44, 5 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

How is it too soft? Roulette, Breakout and Get Back are straight up rockers. I don't know what exactly makes this glam more so than Hard Rock or heavy metal, it's not like Poison or Def Leppard except for a couple of songs. This is not glam metal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.81.33.59 (talk) 02:02, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a vote, where your voice gets weighed into the mix simply because you have an opinion of one. Instead, Wikipedia relies on WP:Reliable sources. If you want to establish the proper genre for this album then you must refer to reliable sources. Binksternet (talk) 04:41, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

RIAA cert[edit]

What is the source for double Platinum certification? I am getting nothing useful from RIAA's website. All I can see in book and magazine sources is that the album went Gold in 1987. Binksternet (talk) 01:27, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
