And I couldn't agree with you more than I already do about that ^ one.

It gets quite boring and repetitious no doubt about it. Almost in the same way Save All Your Love by Great White does too.

Nobody's Fool by Cinderella was one of my favorite back in the day.



Jani Lane is one of the songwriters I always liked from that particular era.

You once confided in me, that you used to have wet dreams about Malmsteen's guitar playing! Why the sudden change of heart?

It's technically "Save Your Love." I had overlooked the song- it's one of my favorites. Yes, like "Send Me An Angel," it's repetitive, but dang the singing (by the underrated Jack Russell) and guitar playing are excellent and no song sounds much like it.

If by that you mean that I have wet dreams about strangling Yngwie Malmsteen to death with his own guitar strings then you are correct.

Nobody knows this song, or this band, at all, but maybe that's what makes them so great. Love this song.

Thank you for reminding me of Strativarius. "Forever" is far superior to any of the the rest of the songs posted on here. Even "Starry Eyes."

That's one of the best power ballads with a woman singing lead and possibly the best power-ballad duet.
