@Jackhammer, good call on Whitesnake. :p

edit :



Kamelot have a lot of nice medieval-ish ballads (Don't you cry, Elizabeth: I - Mirror Mirror, Glory, Sailorman's Call), but they're so embarassing. If I ever listen to them, I make sure noone else is around. It's like worse than being seen singing and dancing solo to Careless Whisper.
Why would you consider them embarrassing? They're great musicans, good songwriters, have a real following... I don't see it...
