You could add 100 more on this list and that could probably still not be enough. Most of these artists have recorded many ballads and it's hard to pick one over another. Especially bands like Spandau Ballet with the heartbreaking Through the Barricades. Also you could add the one hit wonder ballad Lover why by Century (many weeks at #1 in french charts in 1985.

Whitney Houston owned it overnight when she covered Greatest Love Of All in '85, what a gal. Now a few have tried it over the years but man, let's face it, Teddy Pendergrass' (HM & the blue notes) If You Don't Know Me By Now (1972) is untouchable. Really.
reply

You almost cry when you listen to this because of the memories, because of the song themselves. Just yesterday in the Super market l listened for the first time in 35 years All throught the Night from Cyndi Lauper, what a masterpiece!
reply

Great job again, Thank you! Had to think a while to find something missing - maybe Billy Joel Leningrad And since we are Germans and don't like Dieter Bohlen but Chris Norman Midnight Lady at least was a nr. 1!
reply

Victims by Culture Club was one of the most underrated ballads to come out of this decade! If it got more promo and was released in more places maybe it could’ve been on here
reply

Definitely I can't chose just a few ones. The most premium vocalist singers were from the 80's so that's the reason why 80's gonna always be the best decade of music ever.
reply

Did he put survivor the search is over up there That shhh used to go hard lol
Patti Austin & James Ingram baby come to me was fire.
I like about 98% of this list

reply

The 80s were hell. The music was always changing. Early 80s was nothing like the mid 80s, the mid 80s was nothing like the late 80s. Most original decade imo.
reply

I just wanted to say, that I really love that there are so many women in this list! There are so many great (rock) ballads sung by these powerful women
reply

Kayleigh by Marillion was stuck in my head for 35 years. Didn't know the band or title. Found it on another one of your list and I couldn't be happier!
reply

Great list, but some of these songs (Starship Nothing's Gonna Stop us Now and Survivor I Can't Hold Back) stretch the definition of what a ballad is.
reply

Cutting Crew's most famous hit was on your list, but I've been in love before is supremely underrated and seldom played on the radio (at least in the US.
reply

Glad you included 'The Living Years'. Would have liked 'A Different Corner' by George Michael in place of 'Total Eclipse Of The Heart' though.
reply

I swear I would give anything to go back to the 80s because the music was so much better than the crap that passes for music today.
reply

Maravilha relembrar as romanticas dos anos 80. Cade os brasileiros que estao vendo esse video em Dezembro de 2021
reply

What about 'Brilliant Disguise' by Bruce Springsteen A top 5 hit in the U. S. and nominated for a Grammy Award in 1988.
reply

Every time I see your picture I cry by Luba. A classic and canadian singer. Some random guy, have a listen.
reply

So many great songs. Thanks for the list in the description too. Makes hunting down old favorites easier!
