best power ballad
 

if i spell somthing wrong ignore it please, in your opinion what would you call the best power ballad, to me it is Send Me An Angel, by The Scorpions, dont know how many of you can agree with me on this but, i find if you listen to nothing but metal you act hyper and agressive to much, sometimes you need to just slow down, if not then dont come on here and start complaning that you dont like that music.

here are the lyrics to it,

The wise man said just walk this way
To the dawn of the light
The wind will blow into your face
As the years pass you by
Hear this voice from deep inside
Its the call of your heart
Close your eyes and your will find
The passage out of the dark

Here I am
Will you send me an angel
Here I am
In the land of the morning star

The wise man said just find your place
In the eye of the storm
Seek the roses along the way
Just beware of the thorns

Here I am
Will you send me an angel
Here I am
In the land of the morning star

The wise man said just raise your hand
And reach out for the spell
Find the door to the promised land
Just believe in yourself
Hear this voice from deep inside
Its the call of your heart
Close your eyes and your will find
The way out of the dark

Here I am
Will you send me an angel
Here I am
In the land of the morning star
Here I am
Will you send me an angel
Here I am
In the land of the morning star

Megadeth - In My Darkest Hour
Metallica - Fade To Black

fade to black, awsome, never listen to the other one though

I'd say that I agree with ZepplinAir. "Send Me An Angel" is a great ballad. I like the Scorpions, but what about Motley Crue's "Without You" ?Wouuld you consider that a candidate?

damn your right that is a good one, what about glitter, that one is even better

guess no one likes ballads

Brilliant choices- also, "Promises" by Megadeth

Dragonforce- Dawn of a New World

*DF fan*

ZeppelinAir says "fade to black, awsome, never listen to the other one though"


You never heard "In My Darkest Hour" by Megadeth? You just don't know what you are missing. (You should make a point to hear it...it is highly recommended!)

Im also a big DF fan...but there arent many things worse in this world than Dragon Force's ballads lol

why are they bad, are they even ballads

yes they're ballads...and they're bad because its like cheese X1000000
DF needs to keep their lyrics strictly to quests and drag slaying

never heard DF but they sound pretty good

I also thought of Guns N Roses, "November Rain" .

I second that.

Great song isn't it? Here's another, "Nobody's Fool" by Cinderella.

The Flame, Cheap Trick another great ballad

"Every Rose Has It's Thorn" - Poison

Tesla, Love Song

Would you consider "Seventeen" by Winger?

guess so, how bout Heaven from Warrent

Yes, of course. It's a good song.

How about "Poison" by Alice Cooper?

I Remember You by Skid Row, that one is one of the best

Never thought of Alice Cooper

Yeah I just happen to think of the song. That's why I had to ask.

sometimes she cries - Warrant
angel song - Great White
Ballad of Jayne - L.A. Guns
House of Pain - Faster Pussycat

There isn`t one , I hate all power ballads

I LOVE Fade To Black

Power Ballads suck.

Sleeping In The Fire By W.A.S.P. in Fav

yeah that's their best song

I liked Waisted Time much better than I Remember You. Besides, Ive already stated more than once that Our Love is the all-time best power ballad, with Cinderella's Nobodys Fool coming in 2nd.:laughing: There's so many to name within the glam rock/metal genre alone.



A little more articulate (southern rock).

Def Leppard - Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad

Dokken had a lot of different good power ballads, but The Scorpions were one of the best in my opinion.

Dunno if it`s strictly a power ballad, but "Layla" by Clapton is still brilliant after all these years.

From Def Leppard I prefer Hysteria or Two Steps Behind. I like all of them though :)

"Hysteria" for me. Someone mentioned "November Rain," which is a great song, but it's probably too long to classify as a "power ballad." "When It's Love," by Van Halen, is a darn good song, too.
