This Left Feels Right is a Bon Jovi studio album with new versions of Bon Jovi songs from previous albums. It was released in 2003. It was like a "trip down memory lane" as Jon Bon Jovi likes to put it. It has acoustic versions of many of Bon Jovi's biggest hits. Many of the 80's hard hitting chart-rockers are presented in a different light as soulful ballads. This Left Feels Right has sold 549,727 copies in the US (Jul 07).

The 2003 rendition of "Wanted Dead Or Alive" also had a promotional video produced, which had the same format as "Wanted 2001", the single for the One Wild Night live album.

Although the album was a chart success reaching number '2' on the UK music charts,the band's fanbase didn't care for the reworked songs. One critic[citation needed] called the album "pointless" and many believed that a straightforward Greatest Hits would have been better. Jon Bon Jovi believed that 'This Left Feels Right' was better value for money than a greatest hits as it allowed fans to hear the songs in a new light.
