Heart - Alone. Big hair, big drums, big voice.

I've given it, I've succumb to Magic's afternoon of power ballads as I try and make my dissertation as pretty as its author 
Wow, White Snake: Is This Love?. Loving the hair and riffs, and the 80s model girlfriend.

I Just Died in Your Arms Tonight - Cutting Crew
Broken Wings - Mister mister
And Meatloaf tried to do a few as well. You took the words right out of my mouth and others. But he just doesn't cut it as a balladeer. He's cheesy, yes, but doesn't have enough schmaltz
* Extra schmaltz for Mr loaf*

Me and a friend were going to do a power ballads night a few years ago but never got round to it. You've already mentioned the major classics, but here are the ones I remember being on our playlist that haven't been mentioned yet. I loved the videos as well. All the lead singers seemed to do that withdrawing of upturned clenched fist into armpit area from extended arm position to denote the "power" element of their offerings. Well, all the blokes anyway.
Peter Cetera - Glory of Love
Foreigner - I want to know what Love is
Toto - Rosanna
Scorpions - Wind of Change
Mister Mister - Broken Wings
John Waite - Missing You
Starship - Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now
Bad English - When I see you smile
Nilsson - Can't Live
John Farnham - You're the voice
John Parr - St Elmo's Fire

easy g said:I'll second that (used to have a two-sided poster, Heart on 1 side and Lita Ford on the other)
I want that poster! I'm going to have to track something like that down for my new office in the next few weeks!
And now they have goth princess Amy Lee of Evanescence on doing her thing. Damn how I envy her!
And ooooooooh speaking if Meatloaf .... he's on!
(Didn't I'd do anything for love win the NME's worst single of 1993 or something?)
