Mrs Chops and I were watching Glee last night and the episode ended with a rendition of "Total Eclipse of the Heart". Man I love that song. It was enormous. And I am hard pressed to think of a modern band that makes giant songs like that anymore. Sure they talk about feelings and sex and what not, but is thier love gonna last till the end of time? Is it like living in a powder keg and they're givin off sparks? I dont think so.
So heres you assignment, gimme your favorite Monster Ballad. I dont care if its old or new, it just has to be huge

Whenever I think of a sizable ballad, Foreiger's "I Wanna Know What Love Is" comes to mind.

If I'm going for some cheese factor, Peter Cetera's "Glory of Love" certainly scores high marks. After listening to this again I realize just how much I still hate Ralph Macchio.

A legitimate honorable goes to Skid Row's "I Remember You". I'm gonna drop my guard for a sec and say I actually get chills from the last vocal part of this song.
