You can find the rules, list of songs and YouTube playlist of all songs in this thread.
I'll also put a link for each new round there and the thread is stickied so that it's easier to find.

Crimson Glory - Valhalla
Domine - Thunderstorm
Helloween - Final Fortune
Leverage - Follow Down That River
Stratovarius - Hunting High & Low
 
I think that Queensrÿche fans might like Crimson Glory's song. Similar in style with IMO better vocals :)
Also even the Helloween haters might like Final Fortune because it's more heavy than power metal.
Domine might be a bit too power metal for most people here.
Leverage is more hard rock than anything.
And I really like Stratovarius, but this song is so overrated.

Anyway, voting for Crimson Glory and Helloween.
 
Can't say I "liked" any of these songs but Leverage and Stratovarius ones were the least offensive to my ears. Strato song is too generic so I went with Leverage only.
 
Crimson Glory is like early Queensryche with worse vocals.
Domine is a bit too power metal for me.
This song is better than most Halloween because it is more heavy than power.
I've never heard of Leverage before, but the fact they are basically hard rock appeals to me.
Stratovarius is a pretty good band, but I'm not sure why people like that track as much as they do.

Foro, I am shocked that you would think that internet comments could influence me, or any other person.
 
I think that people who are not into power metal should not be "scared" away by the term. Nor do I think that a band should be judged, solely by that aspect. Perhaps some (not necessarily you) would not even listen to the (whole) track if the genre is already accentuated.

There's always a chance that a striking melody, riff, solo, vocals (the vocalist is powerful, and he has a great range) or whatever aspect can be appreciated enough to vote for a song, whatever the genre is.

I think that the riff is mindblowing. I don't think it is a typical power metal one (lots of power metal bands wish they would have such riffs). It's very grabbing. Domine surely has their own guitar sound.

Not a single person on this forum would do that. You're seeing things that are not there because the results don't go accordingly to your liking.
 
I had never heard these before. I like the Helloween and Leverage songs. The first two were unlistenable and should have appeared in the Cheesevivor. Stratovarious was alright, but not something I would listen to.
 
If they are cheesy, then Halford's and Tatertot's vocals are cheesy too. And King Diamond's (someone's gonna say ESPECIALLY HIM, I can feel it :P). Iryo though :P
 
Crimson Glory is more or less a Queensryhe clone. Even the vocals sound really similar.

Edit: Pretty much what NP said. Didn't think of King Diamond though.
