I wouldn't call Meet Me Halfway a ballad... it's more mid-tempo

 

I think the definition of a ballad is "a mid-tempo love song", although I could be wrong.

 

And I've just had deja vu. :lol: I swear a discussion similar to this happened months ago on here!

I was thinking exactly the same thing :lol:!

It is NOT a ballad, I remember the same discussion.

So it's a mid-tempo love song that isn't a ballad? I think slow love song would be more suitable for ballad?

I was thinking exactly the same thing :lol:!

 

I FOUND IT!!!!!!!!!

 

It happened back in March! :o

It begins with me going on about how completely and utterly massive Meet Me Halfway was (as I usually do, since I love the song :lol:), and then some other people are like "Meet Me Halfway? Ballad? lol".

 

Wow, and back then I was amazed it sold almost half a million. :o Now look at it!

 

Perhaps it'll sound more like a ballad if you listen to this version of it:

Well, three-quarters of a million is relatively good I suppose, but Meet Me Halfway is an incredible song, and I find it absolutely beautiful.

Relatively good? It's fantastic! Not many songs sell that much, it's a very good figure. ^_^

For a 3rd single of a huge selling album it done amazingly well.

Meet Me Halfway is one of my favorites from the album (probably my fav. with Now Generation). It's a slow/mid-tempo song but not a ballad (just to step in on the discussion)

I would have never considered it a ballad and for some strange reason and i dont know why it always reminds me of 90;s hit by Snap called welcome to tomorrow.

I've just listened to that song, and I see what you mean! The videos have a similar theme too!

 

I think Meet Me Halfway sounds most like Time After Time. They're so similar, I think it could've been based off the song. If so, it's strange to think if that song didn't exist, them my favourite song from 2009 might not've existed.
