President Barack Obama's chief adviser David Axelrod had the lyrics to 'Work for the Working Man' framed and hung in his White House office. Before the official release of the album, U.S. Work For The Working Man which was released as a promo single was also written about the DHL plant that closed in Ohio. 'Superman Tonight' was released as the second single followed by 'When We Were Beautiful' as the third single, all of which featuring music videos. The lead single, 'We Weren't Born to Follow' is about the tough times we are experiencing in this economic crisis. It stands for the fact that a circle is never ending, and that it also refers to Bon Jovi's inner circle вЂ“ stating that 'in this organization, the circle is very difficult to get into, and even more difficult to get out of.' In an interview on UK radio station Absolute Radio, Jon Bon Jovi stated the album title has multiple meanings. There are a lot of really good guitar sounds and new kind atmospheres on the new Bon Jovi record, that I think makes it really modern. We experimented with a lot of new sounds and had a really good time working with John Shanks, who is also a really good guitar player, so he and I did a lot of вЂweaselingвЂ™ with the guitar sounds. It sounds like Bon Jovi, but it sounds fresh. In an interview given to Rolling Stone, former Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora says the album is a return to 'rock and roll' and said 'ThereвЂ™s going to be some big choruses on there.
