Power Ballads

[AeonicSlumber]

any list of power ballads that doesn't have "I Remember You" by Skid Row is no list I'd ever agree with!

 

[SF Metal Man]

Love Hurts by Nazareth is the best power ballad ever made.

 

[Azrael LenGraden]

 

[zinescene]

220 Volt - Love Is All You Need
X-Japan - IV
Little Caesar - In Your Arms
Sweet FA - Heart of Gold

 

[ZHJ&T]

Blue Murder - Out of Love is the BEST!! I so dig it.

 

[Rezz]

Blue Murder - Out of Love is the BEST!! I so dig it.

Definitely! Thanks for the reminder, I'm past due to listen to that whole album again. Gotta love Spotify - I've already got it going!

so many choices, so many things that skirt the edges of being ballads. Does Circus Maximus - Last Goodbye count? God I love that song.

McAuley Schencker - Anytime
Evanescence - My Immortal
Within Temptation - Memories
Alter Bridge - In Loving Memory

Note:The 3 videos were songs I put together on a memorial CD for a friend who's son passed away almost exactly 2 years ago, they aren't necessarily power ballads but beautiful songs that are a tribute to life and memories.

 

[Random Axe]

One of my favorite songs ever recorded. TNT - Northern Lights. Here's the original recording and Tony's remake form a few years ago. Unlike most vocalists, he got better with age.

This one can hold its' own as well...
