Is this overall power ballads of the 80s? I'll go I Remember You or Love Song (Tesla).

Posted by Inigo (aka Inigo) Dec 31 '13, 08:08

Hysteria is a ballad? It always seemed so inconsequential to other songs on the album.

Love Song by Tesla was a great song. -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 31, 08:31
wait wait wait ... what about Bon Jovi's "Wanted Dead or Alive" ? 1986 - it owned the radio ... -- nm - JenBro Dec 31, 08:13 14
- The Live version pretty much changed music for 10 years. -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 31, 08:18 7
  - That and the live version of "Signs". -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 31, 08:31 6
    - awful song, awful cover. -- nm - Remlik Dec 31, 08:41 5
      - Awful poster to who I am replying -- nm - David Dec 31, 08:53
      - after about 2 weeks I wanted to rip my ears out but the effect of that song on music for about 10 years is undeniable. -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 31, 08:48
      - I do not go that far as I am a huge Tesla fan (Mechanical Resonance is one of my top 25 CDs). It was a fine song for them to do bit should never... - Spawn Dec 31, 08:45 2
        
        oh I like the band. but that song was *everywhere* every time I tuned on MTV they were playing that pos. -- nm - Remlik Dec 31, 08:46 1
        
        See my message. - Spawn Dec 31, 08:49
- Not a ballad. But I'll Be There for You qualifies and is pretty solid. -- nm - pmb Dec 31, 08:15
- It is a love song that Bon Jovi wrote to themselves. - Spawn Dec 31, 08:14 4
  - oh - sorry - I didn't realize there was a specific category - thought it was just "songs" :) -- nm - JenBro Dec 31, 08:17 3
    - We are talking "ballads" even though we are including power ballads. -- nm - Spawn Dec 31, 08:38
    - get with it Jenbro. sheesh. -- nm - Remlik Dec 31, 08:34 1
      - heyyyyy - JenBro Dec 31, 08:54
Also, Bringin' on the Heartbreak is Def Leppard's best ballad. It's not even close. -- nm - Inigo Dec 31, 08:12 1
- It was a goof warm-up to greatness. -- nm - Spawn Dec 31, 08:34
How can your outer message be so awesome, but your IM be so awesomely stupid!!! -- nm - Spawn Dec 31, 08:12 1
- The song just hardly registers with me. -- nm - Inigo Dec 31, 08:20
I'm going with Guns n' Roses Sweet Child O' Mine. After that I'm probably picking one of Heart's ballads. Alone or These Dreams. -- nm - pmb Dec 31, 08:11 8
- *Air drums to "Alone"...* -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 31, 08:29
- Hearts self titled album is one of my favs -- nm - eag Dec 31, 08:18
- I'll go with a different GnR song and say "Patience". -- nm - Krusty Dec 31, 08:17
- oh that can't be a ballad! -- nm - loosilu Dec 31, 08:11 4
  - it's borderline. It's not really a ballad. it was a pop song. -- nm - Remlik Dec 31, 08:41
  - I think it is. It's just not acoustic. -- nm - Inigo Dec 31, 08:15
  - Really? I think it absolutely is. But if you exclude it I'll go with Heart. -- nm - pmb Dec 31, 08:13 1
    - I could be persuaded. -- nm - loosilu Dec 31, 08:15
see, I don't think Hysteria is really a ballad. -- nm - loosilu Dec 31, 08:09 2
- It is one of those rare ballads that is *not* about heart break. -- nm - Spawn Dec 31, 08:13 1
  - hmmmmm. -- nm - loosilu Dec 31, 08:15
