Power Ballads

Last weekend I bought a 6-disc pack of power ballads, and although most of them in those CD's were sucky, there were also quite a few gems in there. Which brings up the question: what are your favorite power ballads?

Here's my list.

Night Ranger - Sister Christian
Judas Priest - Dreamer Deceiver, Victim of Changes
Metallica - Nothing Else Matters
Nightwish - Sleeping Sun
DragonForce - Starfire, Trail of Broken Hearts
Helloween - We Got the Right
Sonata Arctica - Last Drop Falls, Tallulah
Iced Earth - Blessed Are You
Guns n' Roses - November Rain
Aerosmith - Cryin'
Bon Jovi - Bed of Roses
KISS - Beth
Testament - Trail of Tears
 
Faith No More- The Real Thing (the song, not the whole album)
Faith No More- We Care A Lot
Mother Love Bone- Chloe Dancer/Crown Of Thorns
Alice In Chains- I Stay Away
 
Testament, pretty much. Iced Earth avoids the gallons of cheese.

(not saying some of them are bad, nightwish song is great, but it is cheesy)
 
Nevermore - Believe In Nothing
Sonata Arctica - Replica
Kamelot - Abandoned

and to butcher my list,
Bon Jovi - Welcome To Wherever You Are
Nickelback - Far Away
 
floods - pantera
cemetery gates - pantera
hollow - pantera
learn from this mistake - down
a tout le monde - megadeth (REALLY not sure if this one counts, probably not, but)
nothing else matters - metallica (^ditto that. just throwing these here in case they do count.)
white - the cult

as you've probably guessed if you know these songs, i do not exactly have a firm grasp on what constitutes a power ballad, so i wouldn't be surprised if most of these don't count. do feel free to correct me if i am terribly mistaken.
