That's a great duet - but not even close to a power ballad.

That could be very well true as you stated, more of a rock ballad in my opinion which is actually a basic definition of Power Ballad. But I am really not trying to compete or in competition with anyone concerning who or which particular power ballad is the best of the best.

I always liked Lita and Ozzys Close Your Eyes too.

Metal Ballad ?

The Skid Row song is right up there for sure!

Cemetery Gates is probably my favorite Pantera song, and that really says a lot.

The "Heavy Emotion" version from the Controlled By Hatred album is pretty good too, but it removes all of the thrashiness.

It was between this or Fade To Black. I could go either way.
