Missing You, published by Carlin Music Corp/Sony/ATV Music Publishing (UK) Ltd/Warner/Chappell Music Ltd/Warner/Chappell North America Ltd, performed by John Waite back in 1984.
This song reminds me of breaking up. Nice pleasant sounding accompaniment to the singer which dares you to listen to the story he’s telling. Another timeless ... ...by Meatloaf back in 1993.
Best piano intro on this album, dramatic sound throughout, again could be part of a West End Show. Fantastic sounding song with great musical crescendos throughout. Another classic.

3. The Best - Tina Turner - A good one to sing along to
4. Because The Night - Patti Smith - an awsome track that is not heard enough, you might not think you know it, but you will when you hear it
5. The One I Love - R.E.M. - Not a bad tune and not one that you are sick of hearing like losing my religion
6. I Drove All Night - Roy Orbison - another classic track, very moody and full of tension

12. Died In Your Arms, (I Just) - Cutting Crew - I don't know why, but I have never liked this song, one of the low points for me.
13. You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth (Hot Summer Night) - Meat Loaf - it wouldn't be a power balad album without Meatloaf would it? One of his better offerings before he went too theatrical.
14. Total Eclipse Of The Heart - Bonnie Tyler - I loved this from the first ...

...It says it is the best driving anthem but I would not advise you to buy it for driving as it could get your heart racing a bit much with the meotion of it! If you are looking for a full throttle trip through time with some classic tunes which you may or may not like, but it is highly unlikely that you could listen to it and not feel at least a little sentimental or at least remember something about a certain time in your life.. be it a bad/good time ...

Advantages: Various artists Disadvantages: You willl skip some songs
I brought this cd a couple of years ago for my dad and mum.
Before I gave it to them I thought i would have a listen my self.
And wow I thought it was great.
Its the kind of cd to put on when no one is at home and you can turn it up to the max and sing along to with a hairbrush.
Or even better in a car with the volume you up.
Im still quite young at 24 and the music is to my taste.
It has a various of artists.

Advantages: Nearly every song is a Sing-a-Long! Plenty of Air Geetaring Disadvantages: Has made me break the speed limit!!!
If you don't have an overall knowledge of this sort of genre of rock, it is a very good place to start, and if you just want a reminder, Power Ballads is a great value one!!
2 Cd's of some truly great rock tracks, but there are a couple on there that didn't need to be and have been on every other rock compliation ever. Highlights for me include Roy Orbison "I Drove All Night", and Heart "Alone". As well as this there are a few songs I had never ... ...converted to the group! There are plenty of songs that will have you singing along, and it is a great CD fr having in the car on long journeys. Also I found this very very good for doing the housework to!

Advantages: Great selection of tracks, well mastered CD production quality Disadvantages: There isn't a 3rd CD. All good tracks
...2 cd's featuring all the best Power ballad songs. Heart, Cutting Crew and Phil Collins are just a few names featured on the cd.
The selection of songs is good - ranging from the 1980's through to modern day.
The mixing of the album in terms of production quality is very good - and the insert provides good information about the tracks.
It is a good cd for the car - providing such a diverse selection of songs.
I would recommend this album to all ...

Advantages: Some very good songs. Disadvantages: Like all compilation CDs, there are weak links.
It is the same with all compilation CDs, there will be songs that you love, that you regret never listening to before. Then of course there are the songs that you really hate, that you wish had never been recorded at all. That is the curse of the compilation CD.
The other thing about these Power Ballard CDs is that they in a way telll you whether or not you like rock music, because most of the songs on the CD are in fact rock, or a combination between ... ...three of these Power Ballard CDs, and you can bet that on the first CD there will be a song by Queen. So there you go, these are my personal thought on this CD, not all the songs are great, but it does have smashing ones by Ta Pau, Queen, Starship, Meat Loaf and REM. So if you like this kind of music, then I would advise that you get this CD. ...

If you like big hair, rolled up sleeves on your suits and espadrills you will love this album. This is pure cheese and ideal for sunday mornings while your still in bed.
Some classics on here would advise buying it in secret though, people might think youre a bit strange.
