Fly to the Angels - Slaughter
Home Sweet Home - Motley Crue
I Remember You - Skid Row
Heaven - Warrant
Sister Christian - Night Ranger

Queensryche had a couple of them but not sure if we're including non hair bands in the hair band era.

Home Sweet Home and Heaven would be in my top 10. Still Loving You is pretty solid. I burned out on the Scorpions a long time ago because I heard all the hits a million times.

Aerosmith 2.0 had some cheesily, wonderful ballads...

I was always partial to this one (Cinderella - Coming Home).. kinda like the bluesy/countryish sound of it...

and this one, thats a little older... Def Leppard - Bringin' On the Heartbreak.. I was actually into this kind of music when this came out... loved it!

You're even burned out on Winds of Change? That's a GREAT power ballad.
