Yes.. how could I forget about Deep Purple. In fact there are lots of legendary rock ballads and it's impossible to choose 10 or 20 the best ones.

Many of these, if I never hear them again, it will be too soon. Sorry. Commercial radio has played them to death.

I'm still partial to an early 80's gem of a rock ballad called "Just Between You and Me" by April Wine.

Many of my faves have already been posted but can't believe nobody has posted Don't Stop Believing by Journey! I think it's the most downloaded song of all time, or at least way up there.

Other faves:

G'n'R - November Rain
Chris de Burgh - Lady in Red
Four Non-blondes - Teenage Dirtbag (Ok maybe that's a stretch)
The Pogues - Fairytale of New York
The Pogues - Summer in Siam

Good call. I remember replacing that album after wearing one out. Unfortunately, 'tis the nature of the beast that, commercial radio...
