Title: Re: Favorite 80s ballads Post by: Poem58 on August 06, 2010, 11:25:36 am I will obviously have to append this post as to list my favorite 80's ballads could take awhile (admittedly I am a ballad junkie, it's been pointed out, that I hadn't realized much of my favorite music no matter the type seems geared towards the sad/lost love song.

Bryson/Rondstat - Somewhere Out There Edit...Some more: Foreigner - I Want To Know What Love Is Whitesnake - Is This Love John Waite - Missing You Journey - Open Arms & Faithfully Boston- Amanda Survivor- The Search Is Over Firehouse - When I Look Into Your Eyes & Love Of A Lifetime Level 42 - Something About You The Cars - Drive Chicago - Remember The Feeling & Sonny Think Twice Richard Marx - Right Here Waiting Kenny Loggins - I'm Free (Heaven Helps The Man) Lionel Ritchie - Hello Alias - More Than Words Can Say Heart - Alone Bad English - When I See You Smile Billy Joel - The Longest Time Dan Fogelberg - Same Old Lang Syne & Longer Wham - Careless Whisper & Everything She Wants Jennifer Warnes & Joe Cocker - Up Where We Belong Spandau Ballet - True Kool And The Gang - Cherish Stevie Wonder - I Just Called To Say I Love You The Jets - You've Got It All & Make It Real The Beach Boys - Kokomo Jackson Browne - Somebody's Baby The Bangles - Eternal Flame Debbie Gibson - Lost In Your Eyes 38 Special - Second Chance Jeff Healey Band - Angel Eyes Johnny Hates Jazz - Shattered Dreams When in Rome - The Promise Atlantic Starr - Always Randy Travis - Forever and Ever, Amen SKO - Can't Stop Love & Baby's Got A New Baby Human League - Human The Outfield - Your Love The Moody Blues - Your Wildest Dreams Jack Wagner - All I Need Animotion - Obsession The Thompson Twins - Hold Me Now Steve Perry - Oh Sherrie Huey Lewis & the News - If This Is It Mike And The Mechanics - The Living Years McCartney/Jackson - The Girl Is Mine Naked Eyes - Always Something There to Remind Me & Promises, Promises Def Leppard - Photograph Human League - Don't You Want Me Ronnie Milsap - Smoky Mountain Rain Ambrosia - Biggest Part of Me Robbie Dupree - Steal Away I'm sure I could think of more I like but this should be enough for now ;D Told you I was a ballad junkie! just remembered more... Night Ranger - When You Close Your Eyes Journey - Lights Going through your lists I found more I loved but didn't recognize by name, or just hadn't heard in a long time. Like the Men At Work song Overkill, I should have it on CD but missed it being there because the title didn't ring a bell. Seeing Restless Heart had me looking up the lyrics for a sing through as it's been years and I found another I forgot about... Restless Heart - A Tender Lie Edit another one....Restless Heart - I'll Still Be Loving You So many forgotten songs....hope more people post more songs!!!!!!
