John Sykes was one of the greatest guitarists of that era IMO.
I coincidentally was reminded of him a few days ago and just read up on his wiki and listened to some music.
Excellent.

most underrated
There's lots of confusion in this thread, as very few actually offered real answers. The following are NOT under-rated - they are vastly, properly rated!
quote:
Scorpions - Still Loving You
quote:
Skid Row - I Remember You
quote:
Guns N' Roses - Estranged
quote:
White Lion - When the Children Cry
quote:
Scorpions - Wind of Change
quote:
Saigon Kick - Love Is on the Way
quote:
Cinderella - Don't Know What You Got (Till It's Gone)
quote:
Whitesnake - Here I Go Again
Now, here were the legit answers given:
quote:
Blue Murder - Out of Love
quote:
Great White - House of Broken Love
quote:Excellent answer!
Krokus - Screaming in the Night
quote:Excellent answer!
Twisted Sister - The Price
And here are mine:
Warrant - I Saw Red - Possibly my favorite power ballad ever.
Great White - The Angel Song
Skid Row - Wasted Time, In a Darkened Room, Quicksand Jesus
Scorpions - Under the Same Sun
And for the person who put Bruce Dickinson (Gates of Urizen), I don't know if I'd call that a power ballad. But Tears of the Dragon certainly is.

Is this considered a "power ballad"?
....it's a great, underrated song whether it is or is not.

Hmmm, possibly but I really don't get 80's hair band power ballad vibes from Big Head Todd.

I'm going to break my own rule in this very thread. Although I don't think this song is truly underrated, it is still a bit buried in Poison's overall catalogue. And since Poison gets way too much hate on this board, here you go: the greatest monster ballad of all time.

I would also add Life Goes On. It had a video and everything, but it wasn't that big.
