zenji says I don't know how well they fit the 'glam' label, but Paradise City by GnR pretty much does it for me.

J-Rock says A lesser-known favourite power ballad of mine is: Vain - Quick Step To Love (from the album "Fade) I tell you, there is no shame in rocking out to power ballads. Donning the aviators, rolling down the windows, and cranking Bon Jovi's "In These Arms" to the maxxx!

ROCKNROLLPIMP1 says man tesla was probably my favorite band of that era. they were not "glam" other than that first video a bad decision listen to some idiot manager. they were t-shirt and jeans and recalled a time in the 70's for me i still listen to tesla weekly i love that band all that said,good one. but steelhearts "i 'll never let you go" was cranked more than that one for my then wife the vain song was good cowboy was NOT a ballad gnr was NOT a glam hair band(debatable) and paradise city NOT A BALLAD c'mon ppl!!!!
