Hearing this just reminds me of what in incredible band they had at the beginning. The bass lines from the first two albums were awesome and unique, the synth player was innovative and a killer showman, and Ian McDonald on guitar, flute, and anything else was icing on the cake. Foreigners first two albums probably the best 1-2 punch ever
Awkward moment is when Your listening to this in your room when all of a sudden Your parents come in, sit down and tell you "this song is the reason why you are here today"...lol
When is FOREIGNER going to get off their butts and release the official video for "JUKE BOX HERO"? That's the tune of theirs I really like. As for this tune, it's not bad, but, it's not JUKE BOX HERO either.
This new singer is amazing ! So Powerful and right on pitch, His presence is GREAT and fits the band perfectly. One of my all-time favorite Bands, Rock on Foreigner ....
@OCIRELCNU Then why are you watching it ? You obviously have been to this video multiple times , why do watch it again and again ? You must be one of the "5" dislikes , so you must be REALLY smart and know ALOT about classic rock . POSER .
@bahashawa1 i didnt dislike it, i don't think ive ever disliked a video. You nubs need to search for good music, dont settle for what radio stations feed you.
@OCIRELCNU I have , they are awesome as well . Was a bummer when Dime bag was killed . But I was refering to "classic rock" bands , there has been a resurgence of classic rock and Foreigner is one of the best , to come back .
@tcbeddie saw them last night in Houston, while I knew all their songs, I've never been a Foreigner fan or bought any of their stuff. I understand this isn't the original band but they put on a GREAT show and made me realize I should have paid more attention to them years ago
Most people know the name of the lead singer of a band. Hence everyone knows the name Lou Gramm. The only reason it's called "foreigner" is if it was called "the Mick Jones Band" no one knows who the hell he is. I think it's dishonest for younger fans who to a show thinking it's an original band. Kelly hanson is a great singer, and they put on a great show. But cover bands do just as good a job.
@mallan18 Foreigner was basically Mick Jones' band from the beginning. Lou Gramm had medical problems and doesn't sound the same anymore. He now is in a christian band.
Ok job but just pales i comparison to Lou. Some bands can pull off a lead singer switch and make it work well, but others -- Foreigner, Journey for example -- have such an iconic sound that without Perry or Gramm it just never measures up.
@hornplayerchris I don't know, but that doesn't look like him playing. The drummer you see here looks younger, taller, and not as stocky a build. I know that Jason Bonham was the drummer for a bit........ Don't know?
This is the song I fell in love with all those years ago only better. Thank you Foreigner for making this song rock better than it did the first time. Some things just getter better with age.
I like how Mick Jones has handled replacing Lou Grahmm with Kelly Hansen. Unlike Neal Schon who shouldn't even show his face ever again, Mick and Lou had many great years together. They toured as long as they could, and when Lou retired, Mick hired a kid (Hansen) who wasn't a total Lou Grahmm knockoff, and has carried on the Foreigner flag. Oh, and they sound great.
what is with everyone saying that today's kids don't know good music anymore? I'm a fifteen year old girl, and I rock out to foreigner every morning when I brush my teeth. I love this shit, I hate today's music. This is what real music sounds like.
holy fuck! for some reason i expected this to suck, like most similar bands are starting to lose it by now, but they still got it! i'd love to see these guys live!
@Arumatpawn that was back when times were simpler kid, when disliking something was more objective than hateful ;o but that is an interesting point nonetheless XD
@Arumatpawn AMEN BROTHER! like all the shit talkin kids or 40 yr old virgins who sit home and have nothin betr to do than to go look at videos of shit they dont like and TRASH TALK!, i dont know bout you, but i only check out videos of shit i like! hey,,, im not perfect, far from it,, but atleast im better than them Shitheads!!! GREAT VIDEO,, they are MONEY live! comin here to Boston, august 12th with Journey and Night ranger. Not a big Ranger fan, but i hope to be at this show!
@sithmasterjedidode This isn't Lou Gramm but I would assume that you know that if you lived down the street from him as a kid. Pre-surgery Lou will forever be my alltime favorite rock vocalist but Mick lucked-out BIGTIME when Kelly came in for his tryout. The guy's been doing a helluva job.
Wow!! Still sounds great...I saw them Live in Miami Orange Bowl Stadium, 30 years ago, ( on Acid ) but What a show,,, The singer and drummer are new in this video tho,,
Wow! I bought this on 8 track tape as 8 track was fastly becoming obsolete. When did Foreigner they perform this? If it was recently, they still have got it. Actually better. Great post!!!!
Saw these cats last night at House of Blues in Cleveland. Kick ass concert!!! This guy singing is a great replacement!!! Foreigner f-ing Rocks!!
