Have to agree with Geoff. The drums are miles in the back of the mix ... no punch. -
Journey - Only The Young (Steve Perry & Bryce Miller remix)

IF they had used the ethereal vox as an intro and then used more of the song "as is" ... i'd have loved it. The entire song stripped down and techo-fied is ... meh. -

1. Yes, i TRY to listen to every suggestion, however if the song if suggested by a friend/colleague who knows my criteria, i'll add the song without having hearing it. I'd welcome any info on ballads by the bands you mentioned. 2. Modern ballads absolutely qualify. I'm excited about bands like H.E.A.T. and Lipz, for example - i just struggle finding the time to check out all the great new music coming out.

Thanks so much, my friend. i've run into some miserable people in building this site and asking for recommendations, positive guys like you make my day. Yep, that video is my doing. There was ZERO copies of that ballad on the interwebs, so i fixed that. I plan to do that with more obscure/rare/unreleased ballads. I'm currently working on a writeup about the song for my "Ballad of the Week" blog posts. The Cry Tuff album is pretty good, not mind-blowingly great. Thanks, again

Hi guys, i'm back after a hiatus of a couple of years. A couple of years ago i posted about my website where I've created a list of all the Hard Rock/AOR/Hair Metal power ballads from the 80s and beyond. You guys were a great help in giving me suggestions of ballads i was missing. (One of you suggested "Only Way Out (Rosalita)" by Cry Tuff which has become one of my top 5 ballads ever.) in 2020 i lost my oldest son to addiction and i just didn't have the energy or the will to continue with the site, so the domain lapsed and the site vanished (except for wayback machine). A few months ago, i got the desire to resurrect the project and the site is back up and running at www.thepowerballadz.com. The site is purely a hobby, a passion project, and i make no money from the endeavor. You can click on the name of the band and it brings you to the band's index site on heavyharmonies. The country flag can be clicked on and you see a list of all the bands from that country. The year of the ballad's release also links to a list of every ballad from that year. Anyone that knows of any rare/obscure AOR/Hard Rock/Glam/Hair Bands that i don't have on my list - let me know! I really appreciate it, it keeps me busy and sane.
