-> The songs for this album were written between 1979 and 1982, the time when the young John Bongiovi worked at the 'Power-Station-Studio' co-owned by his
father's cousin. He wrote and recorded them all by himself or with a little help from some studio musicians, either early in the morning or late in the evening when no one needed the rooms
-> When Jon wrote those songs he triedĀ to do a really good one which he could send to the bigĀ labels to impress the responsible guys there. The song
which he finally considered to be this special one was 'Runaway'
