I'm trying to acquire a list of the top 100 80's love ballads. If anyone has any info on a good jumpoff point, or would just like to throw in their two cents...please do so.

How about these? The last two are more obscure, but still great 80s love songs.

One More Try- George Michael
The Power of Love- Laura Branigan
Say You Will- Blanket of Secrecy
Heartache Feeds Heartache- A Drop In The Gray

There are some more, but I can't think of any others at the moment.
