50 Greatest Power Ballads in Rock History Ranked​

27. Guns Nā€™ Roses, ā€œPatienceā€
The rush-released second album from Guns Nā€™ Roses, GNā€™R Lies, pales in comparison to the albums that came before and after it. However, the LPā€™s crown jewel is ā€œPatience,ā€ a tender acoustic ballad penned by Axl Rose. As the one single from Lies, ā€œPatienceā€ climbed to No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100. It also, arguably, showcases the finest whistling contribution of Roseā€™s storied career.
3. Guns Nā€™ Roses, ā€œNovember Rainā€
At a time when every band from the Sunset Strip was delivering a cool new power ballad, Guns Nā€™ Roses proceeded to outdo them all. The groupā€™s magnificent 1991 single ā€œNovember Rainā€ was a saga, complete with backing choir and strings. Reportedly, the tune had been gestating in frontman Axl Roseā€™s mind for close to 10 years before he was finally able to record it with the band. Even then, the original version was 20 minutes in length, before getting whittled down to just nine. Regardless, ā€œNovember Rainā€ ā€“ and its equally ambitious music video ā€“ became the high water mark for hard rock.
