It's the melodrama too - I think Boston, by embracing more humble songwriting (trad. RnR as you said, and love songs), were a little more understated than the others, and weren't such caricatures of grandiose rock n roll. Steve Perry's voice is technically good, but it can be very grating, and it just seems so contrived. I've never heard it soar quite like Brad Delp, who was also very reserved in his shining moments.

Don't let me fool you in seeming like I know a lot about these bands, though, because my knowledge is strictly radio hits.
