Coming soon to a computer near you: "Quo Ballads - a poll"
As it's a tad (very?) subjective, we'd need suggestions, else it'd be just li'l ol' me forcing my ballad-definitions on you lot.
Fire away, 'cos frankly I don't know where to start other than, off the top of my head:
Tongue Tied Too Close To The Ground Living On An Island Rock n Roll

I'd have gone for Unspoken Words but seeing that's been chosen, what about... A Year?

So far, including suggestions above, plus other tracks found, the list is:
1000 Years A Year Address Book All The Reasons Are You Growing Tired of My Love Blue For You Everything For You Going Down For The First Time I Know You're Leaving Living On An Island Mystery Island Nanana One By One Raining In My Heart Restless Rock 'N' Roll Rock 'Til You Drop Shifting Sand Someone Show Me Home Sorry This Is Me Tongue Tied Too Close Too The Ground Unspoken Words Where I Am
Debatable, this "ballad" mallarky: "a poem or song narrating a story in short stanzas." "a slow sentimental or romantic song."
Some of the above aren't all slow and slushy, but I'd be happy for them all to 'contend'. Any objections (based on something other than not liking a track :lolflg: )? Or, any more for any more?

That, and it'll impress the FFers that you chose it, especially after all your Pennsylvania Blues shenanigans!! :haha:

Erm what about if you don't like some of them because they are "CENSORED" ?, is that a good enough reason ?! By the way, One By One is a great choice, love that song.

Most Of The Time ! Hm, not sure about Lover Of The Human Race and Warning Shot ? Mystery Island is a ballad .. Are You Growing Tired Of My Love Who Gets The Love Much akin to A Year, MOTT gets a bit rowdy later in the track, much the main part of the songs definitely ballad-y! Warning Shot, yep. Who Gets the Love, a bit iffy that one for me but I'd erred over that before so as it's borderline and there's two of us umming over the same one, it's in Mystery Island, Are You ... , definitely both. Lover Of The Human Race ... I'd put that in the Who Am I category. Deffo iffy! Ah what the heck :lolflg:
