Back in the 80's, there existed a genre--equal parts rock and beauty--that was almost exclusive to the times, called Power Ballads. Many were epic, many were cheesy, and we explore quite a few of the most famous ones in this episode. For those of you keeping track at home, not a single one of them featured a Fairlight.
