I would like you to add With or Without by U2, one of their best love songs IMO.

Ballads....
I really,really hate the so called powerballads, even some of those I used to like.
How ever Ozzy Osbourne is one hell of a ballad singer:
Changes (without Kelly!!! )
Solitude
So Tired
Mama, I´m Coming Home
Close My Eyes Forever
But number one for me is mr.Elvis Presley:
I Love You Because
Blue Moon
I´ll Never Let You Go, Little Darlin´
Tomorrow Night
Harbor Lights

And It Could Happen To You played by the great trombonist J.J. Johnson.

 

[J.T.S.]

Pearl Jam-Black

Journey "Faithfully"

Wow!! I never thought I would see Tyketto mentioned on this board. Great band!

Porcupine Tree - She's moved on
Dream Theater - Hollow Years
Harem Scarem - Slowly Slipping Away

two amazing songs

 

[HERO2]

Desperado why don't you come to your senses, if u been out riding fences for so looooong now....

unchained melody

Whoa...My love, my darling,
I hunger for your touch,
Alone. Lonely time.
And time goes by, so slowly,
And time can do so much,
Are you still mine?
I need your love.
I need your love.
God speed your love to me.
Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea,
To the open arms of the sea.
Lonely rivers sigh, wait for me, wait for me,
I'll be coming home, wait for me.
Whoa- My love, my darling,
I hunger, hunger!, for your love,
For love. Lonely time.
And time goes by, so slowly,
And time can do so much,
Are you still mine?
I need your love.
I need your love.
God speed your love to me.

best lyrics ever
this one too Jewel - Break Me

I will meet you in some place
Where the light lends itself to soft repose
I will let you undress me
But I warn you, I have thorns like any rose
And you could hurt me with your bare hands
You could hurt me using the sharp end of what you say
But I am lost to you now
There's no amount of reason to save me

sexy, poetical, powerful words

 

[ooahouch]

Not exactly a love song.
Another day in Paradise --- Phill collins

 

[member11579]

Dream On and November Rain

 

[Jacksson_77]

this one too Jewel - Break Me

I will meet you in some place
Where the light lends itself to soft repose
I will let you undress me
But I warn you, I have thorns like any rose
And you could hurt me with your bare hands
You could hurt me using the sharp end of what you say
But I am lost to you now
There's no amount of reason to save me

sexy, poetical, powerful words

great thread. i was flicking through the music channels today and stopped on Eric Claptons tears in heaven video. it always gets me wondering how the man can sing a song dedicated to his dead son. the pain he must have felt when he sang it must have been so immense its amazing he got any words out. everytime i see the vid or hear the song i always feel a deep sorrow and admiration for him. being a dad myself i know i couldn't bear the pain if anything happened to one of my kids.
kudos to the man
