"Stay" by Giant

Arriving at the tail end of the hairband craze, hard rock band Giant managed to squeeze out a couple tiny hits off their rather excellent debut record. The first was "I'm A Believer," which went to #56 in 1989. In 1990, the band scored bigger with the requisite power balled, "I'll See You In My Dreams," which hit #20.

The band's follow-up record, "Time To Burn," might have been huge if it came a couple years earlier. Nothing broke into the top 100, but that's because the music landscape was shifting, not because there weren't any songs worth their salt. "Stay" is one of the best from this sadly overlooked melodic rock album.
