I wouldn’t have classed that’s my goal or just the way you are as ballads. There has definitely been a lack of strong ballads in recent years!

I miss the big ballads and as a take that I wish they did a bug ballad to launch their recent greatest hits.

JTWYA I guess I can understand because of its tempo, but what about "That's My Goal" stops it from being a ballad???


Disgraceful to see Robson & Jerome and Gareth Gates versions of "Unchained Melody" above the actual good version by Righteous Brothers sleep.gif
