ATTIKA - "Black Rose" from the mighty When heroes fall

Not exactly a ballad because after the first half it will kick your ass and eliminate everything, but anyway...
Good against Evil, Evil sure to win

It changes sometimes...
But at this time i prefer: "The Darkest Hour" from Discovery. Not just a stupid ballad, you can also bang your head...
Reminds me musically a little bit to(?) "Fade to Black".

I have got to resurrect this one, if you all don't mind.

Found a nice ballad were I least excepted one, on Coven's "Blessed is the Black" album. "Another Life" is a beauty, it even has keyboards! Great ballad.

I think there are some un-wimpy ballads, that one can really enjoy.

Iron Cross - Fantasy World
Emerald - Look to the Stars
Tempt - Don't walk away (on Metal Meltdown III)
Valhalla - In her Eyes
Titan Force - Toll of Pain
Crimson Glory - Lost Reflection
Black Sabbath - Solitude

That song is top of the heap when it comes to ballads. It's too beautiful for words.
