THIS ROMEO IS BLEEDING
BUT YOU CAN'T SEE HIS BLOOD
Cross Road
is the first
official
greatest hits album
by American rock band
released on
October 11, 1994,
by Mercury Records.
The album contains hits
from all previously
released albums
from their debut,
Bon Jovi
(1984)
to
Keep the Faith
(1992).
The album includes
two new tracks:
the hit singles
"Always"
and
"Someday I'll Be Saturday Night",
as well as
"Prayer '94",
a new version of
"Livin' on a Prayer"
only on the
North American versions.
"Runaway"
was never recorded
with the current band,
though at that time
there were plans to put a
"Runaway '94"
on the album
but it was never recorded.
The diner located on
the cover of the album
is the
Roadside Diner
in Wall Township,
New Jersey,
near the crossroads of
Route 33 and Route 34.
The album's first single
"Always"
went top five
in many countries.
It spent six months
in the top 10
of the
Billboard Hot 100
and became
Bon Jovi's
biggest selling single
in the United States.
Its international success
helped the album
to peak at number one
in 13 countries
and made it
Polygram Records'
best-selling album
of 1994.
It is Bon Jovi's
best selling album
in many countries.
It has sold over
21.5 million copies
worldwide,
making it one of the
best-selling albums
of all time.
In 2005,
Cross Road
was re-issued as a
3-disc box set
under the name
"Sound & Vision",
which included the
original remastered album,
a bonus CD
containing B-sides,
rarities
and fan favorites,
and the
Live from London DVD.
