Jennifer Rush - Power of love

Maybe not totally underrated but a true powerhouse of a ballad.

That's not underrated or overlooked in any way!

Small wonder it's considered on of the all time greats. Absolute masterpiece. They certainly don't make them like they used to!

Tonight by Ozzy goes against the norm he is usually known for. The late Randy Rhoads is also on this track.
