Grimm Reaper
Iron Maiden's Blood Brothers and No Prayer for the Dying

Could Judas Priest's Angel be considered a power ballad? It's slow but near the end it speeds up and gets louder.

What about Spiders or Ego-brain by System of a Down?

Meh, I don't know

SnakeEyes
Sieze the Day by Avenged Sevenfold (if that counts as a power ballad)

papabeard
Cant Fight This Feeling Anymore - Reo Speedwagon
Every Rose Has Its Thorn - Poison
Sailing Away- Styx
November Rain- Guns n Roses


(PS : Anyone remember the band Cinderella, they had an ace song called A Little Shelter?)

YOU....you seem to know your shit when it comes to Music...tell me what a Power ballad is.

Alpha Centauri
A ballad that isn't necessarily slow and "mushy". Artists such as Foreigner, REO Speedwagon and Whitesnake have come to be known as purveyors of such songs.

Thanks. I can't still think of any, but I got the general idea.

Ultimate power ballad IMO.

Soldier Side as well

Victor Von Doom
I think it's generally used to apply to 80s/early 90s bombastic love songs, of a pop-based nature, which are still clearly rock.

I wouldn't say SOAD or Rammstein really fit the genre.

I like November Rain.

Bed of Roses-Bon Jovi
Home Sweet Home-Motley Crew
Alone Again-Dokken

BobbyD
Oh, crap-I almost forgot one of my ALL TIME favorites...

Remember Yesterday-Skid Row

Sebastian's singing is incredible....truly an underrated singer.

Slay
Is Another Day by Dream Theater considered a power ballad? confused

papabeard
What about Purple Rain by Prince would that be a power ballad?

KMC
Yeah def! How could i forget the purple one?

Alpha Centauri
Purple Rain doesn't have the cheese and corny nature of a power ballad.

-AC

It's not an a-typical REO Speedwagon type power ballad but it still has the right elements. its still amazing though
