My position on ballads is roughly the same as my position on acoustic guitar songs. They're something that most people seem tempted to do at some point, despite being very very difficult to do well and very easy to do incredibly badly. Most obviously fall into the latter category, mostly to do with the songwriters/arrangers just not being good enough and ballads tend to flaunt that inadequacy more harder/faster songs.
