The world of music would be entirely different these days if it were not for the monster love ballads of the 80s. This is for so many reasons. But to really break down monster love ballads of the 80s, we need to take a good look at why they were so popular. The Beatles were the founders and true purveyors of rock love ballads, and being so, they paved the pathways for other great 80s bands that came along a few decades later. Sure they were cheesy they were even a bit bland at some times. But the one thing that monster love ballads did for us all was that they made us feel. And that was worth far more than any other sort of medicine. Feelings evoked feelings and monster love ballads made us dig deep into our hearts, helping us all to realize that we are indeed human and rock does not just have to be heavy metal. And in turn, love ballads today are just as cheesy just a touch bit more compressed and commercial.
