Re: Power ballards
On that album cover is one of my old favourite bands and that was Extreme... Now, "More Than Words" would undoubtedly win the title of best Rock Ballad maybe, but not the best Power Ballad being that it's acoustic.
Maybe Meatloaf's "I would do anything for love" or Bryan Adams' "Heaven" could be contenders My favourite bands' worst single could possibly be classed as a bit of a power ballad.... "Kayleigh I just wanna say I'm sorry But Kayleigh I'm too scared to pick up the phone To hear you've found another lover to patch up our broken home Kayleigh I'm still trying to write that love song Kayleigh it's more important to me now you're gone Maybe it will prove that we were right Or ever prove that I was wrong" :D |

I think Mr Blunt is planning a tour taking in the East coast of Australia in a few months, I will be there with my rope. ;) Great album. :) |

Mine's the Power of Love by Jennifer Rush because they played it at my ex-bosses funeral...only joking! How about Lilac Wine - Elkie Brooks. Why? It's a nice ditty and I like wine. I'm sure you can all do better than that.... The sciendtist - Coldplay (fab song) :D |
