From the article: Best Hair Metal Ballads
Big hair, big guitars, and big ballads. The late '80s and early '90s were the heyday for hair metal. What's your favorite hair metal ballad? What's Your Favorite?

2 FP songs, 1 Crue?

Seriously, "Home Sweet Home" should've been in Top 10, if not #1.

Winger

My favorite hair metal ballad is "Spell I'm Under" by Winger. Alone Again by Dokken is also a great one. lol @ the person who misspelled Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Play Some Skinyrd

I know they are not a hair band by any means, but to me the song Simple Man by Lynryd Skinyrd is one of the best hard rock ballads of all time and it came out in the early 70's, it's as powerful as anything anyone has done since to me. My top 3 Power Ballads 1. Simple Man 2. "Alone Again" by Dokken 3. "Always Somewhere" by Scorpions
