Hey, the songs you posted got me in the rock ballad mood! I've always liked "Nothing Else Matters." I'd never heard that orchestral version before.
Here's a peaceful, but cool rock ballad:

What's up, Hanzze.
I heard that that song was very popular in strip clubs, so a lot more things than heads have moved to that song!
A classic, but I like "Wrathchild" the best--perhaps because I used to play bass!
Mama? Okay, you've driven me to this Ozzy song:
Wow, that's a pretty cool, old rock and roll song. It has a little a bit of a nasty edge to it, so I can see it as a precursor of later, heavier rock music.
Here's an old rock song I've always loved:

So who's gonna be Number 1, Retro? I hope you pick some really unconventional band and don't just do something predictable like picking the Beatles.
In case you do pick them, here's a great cover of one of their songs by the guitarist Paul Gilbert.
In case you go with the Stones, here's a great cover of "Paint it Black" by Judas Priest's guitarist:
