  • I have to go back and look in my journals,but in the 90's I was strongly inpressed to go see my cousin Lou in a free concert in Western NY,where I live. I was denied entrance bcos I didnt have a ticket. I saw a tour bus parked nearby and asked the driver how I could gain entrance.he said I could have his cos he had to stay on the bus. Wel I got in and told him backstage that "Jesus loved him" just as the spirit led me to. I'm glad he didnt harden his heart for good...praise God

  • Many search for true happiness in things that leave them lonely and empty in life. Lou has found true happiness that gives him hope and a fullfillment in life.

  • foreigner is a tribute band now, they are no longer viable.

  • @olhobbler Hell, they're longer visible.

  • Lou is an amazing person.he's still living,and here on earth for a porpose

  • Kelly Hansen, the guy who replaced Lou in Foreigner, used to sing in Hurricane in the 80s, a band known for having the brothers of two of the guys in Quiet Riot. Like Journey, they are recording and touring with a younger soundalike. Kelly is probably in his 40s and looks like a more handsome Steve Tyler-his voice is fantastic. And there's poor Lou, sick, overweight....these lead singers are like women....used up when they're young and thrown out when they're old...

  • Glorify God in the name of Jesus

    Thanks! :D

  • I have always loved Lou Graham's voice, it's amazing what the Lord can do!

  • We met Lou when he was a customer in our business. He is the kindest, most sincere person you could ever know. He's had a hard time of it -- like a lot of us! Only he almost died! I've been down that road -- it changes a person forever! You never take life for granted and you know there is a GOD in Heaven or you wouldn't still be here. It's wonderful to still have him, and out there making music. Godspeed, Lou!! :-) Cheri & Rick (Mail Boxes Etc.)

  • Lou should do something with Phil Keaggy! That would be so cool!

  • Damn! Now he's into Jesus????!!! Don't gimme that religious crap please! Who believes in fairytales these days?

  • @AWGMJANS Are you still going to say the same thing when you face God someday because you will and He will remember when you posted this.

  • I've been wondering why Foreigner had a new singer. This is great news! I'm very happy to find out why! Very proud of Lou that he has found Jesus in his life! Great to hear him sing christian rock also. He's got a voice that will always be remembered.

  • Just love ya even more ,Lou! Great testimony! You're an inspiration to people,Lou! God bless You!

  • He's truly an amazing guy. :)

  • Jesus Rocks! :p

  • A classy, classy, kind and good man. I love ya, Lou......you're still a rock hero of mine.

  • Não tem a mesma voz, mas não deixa de ser um icone do rock mundial.

  • Why are there so many haters on here posting inane comments about religion? This is an interview with Lou Gramm, his association with religion and how it helped him through tough times in his life, etc. The haters should focus on that, not on slagging each other off. Back to this interview - Lou Gramm is one of the most talented musicians and singers, an incredibly down to earth, nice guy and Mick Jones and the rest of Foreigner should be regretting the day he ever left because of them!

  • @leicestergirl63 It comes with the territory of being a Christian that u will receive persecution. Some ppl don't like for rock stars to promote Christianity bz it may promote something they don't like.

  • Lou could of stop drugs with out god as long that he could of just beleaving in his self and will power but I am happy that he is not dead if.

  • @sonofatiger you should always spell God with a Capital "G"

  • @monkeypawww Even Goddamn?

  • Hello Lou,

    This interview is so inspiring. We all go through trials, you had yours, i had mine, we all have ours and you came out as a winner. I am happy for you because you seem so at Peace. Keep up the Lords work because you can be an insperation to many! Thank you Lou, Great job and God bless you my firend!

  • An amazing interview with an amazing man.

  • @mattfirebird I saw that interview on Jack FM. That was even more pathetic. And yes Lou has alot of patience. The only good thing about this one is that I finally learned what he went though the days leading up to the operation and the sheer hell he went through afterwards. My heart goes out to him.

  • @Canadiana71 Well said! Yes indeed, my heart goes out to him as well. I grew up listening to hits like Juke Box Hero, Urgent, Hot Blooded, I Want To Know what Love Is and Cold As Ice. I really appreciate Lou's perserverance. Check out his live performance of Waiting For A Girl Like You on German TV a few years back. I think show was called 50 Jahre Love Songs. Absolutely touching to see Lou sing that song. I do hope a reunion would of some sort would take place. I miss REAL music!

  • without lou foreigner is a cover band

  • Thank God you found the Lord in time. God has his hands around you to fully recover and be back to sing again. Lou Gram is back.

  • I'm so happy you have found the Lord! It is evident the Lord has had His hand on you and set you aside for a purpose. He is wonderful!!!

  • Lou...You are such an inspiration to your fans...you were one of my favorite singers/bands in the 70's and I still love your Foreigner hits and your new praise songs. I listen to you almost every night and it gives me great joy to hear your beautiful voice sing for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. May God continue to bless you and your family!!

  • wow

  • Praise the Lord for Lou's come back home.  Sounds like a great CD after his trials.

  • Scott Ross: "You did solo albums while you were still with Foreigner?"

    Lou Gramm: "Yes."

    Scott Ross: "What kind of albums were those?"

    Possibly the worst interview I've ever seen. Scott Ross obviously didn't do his research on Foreigner or Lou's solo career before conducting the interview. Lou Gramm is an amazing artist and one truly gifted man. This interviewer was just clueless and I can't believe how Lou had the patience to put up with this idiot.

  • @Canadiana71 Dude...if you think this interview was bad check out the one Lou Gramm did with the chick on JackFM 104.3 fm. You'll see what I'm talking about. At least in this interview Lou talks about his surgery and the turnabout his life has taken. But you're right, Lou has amazing patience in these interviews!

  • Sometimes it takes a a trajical situation 4 us to open our eyes & this happend to lou.It happend to me w/my husbands suicide & afterwards thats when you find out that there really is a god & one day non-believers will know & since I accepted the lord as my savior my life I realise is only a gift from him & once you truly believe from your heart that god is there,.He WILL give you a sign.One day you will know.Lou found out & so will you.I did 4 sure!! God bless lou,Im glad u found god too!MELODY

  • Rock on, Lou!  God bless you!

  • I am so thankful to hear this about you lou... You was always my favorite singer! Praise God!

  • God Bless him !!!

  • Sure do agree. Not only talented, but a very nice guy and humble, which makes his fans like him even more.

  • @GaylordWinchester77 We humans in the western world should have made sure that Haiti, and so many other poor countries, become well-protected against the forces of nature. So blame yourself instead of God. We have our own responsability here. People who have knowledge and money should support and teach the ones who dont. Thank you.

  • @truebluewonderful I didn't blame god. There is no such thing. It's your way of thinking that says god is in control of the universe. No wait, there is free will. Wait, god gives us choices and we have to guess. No wait, god knows everything, including the future so even if we have free will he knows what's going to happen anyway. You religious lunitics are hilarious. Anyway, I have to go feed my unicorn.

  • If you think the bible could come together, so miraculously, by accident ,and not be a valid,spiritual,guide to living life,with love and compassion for others,your thinking is a joke.God gives every man free will,not slavery.And he used Man to convey this simple message thru thousands of years of writings{poems,letters,documen­ts and some fables to convey his love}Thousands of years of ancient writings pointing to Jesus Christ...Impossible to accomplish by men alone...

  • @theHugginser God condoned plenty of slavery. Crack open your bible and do a little research. He also advocated incest, since we all came from Adam and Eve, apparently. The Islamic religion's writings point to someone else, and I don't think it was Jesus. Have fun believing in the tooth fairy though.

  • wow, i didn't even recognize him.

  • I have always thought Lou was an amazing guy. Not only is he ridiculously talented but he is also one of the nicest guys you can find.

  • You listen to SiriusXM? Their Classic Rewind station plays tons of Foreigner, even the stuff that wasn't top ten. They have a really good mix of stuff that you may have heard once or twice but still remember as being great. I heard Zebra tonight. So fun.

  • Ironically enough, one of my favorite Foreigner songs is With Heaven On Our Side.

  • @GaylordWinchester77

    My favorite is jukebox hero.

    But, hotblooded is one of the best.

  • @GaylordWinchester77 , I find that quite interesting. chuckle. That is a really great song too.

  • great song amazing voice

  • As a regular spectator of current events and past history, I know there isn't a god, regardless of what *you* think. Where was god when millions of Jews were chemically burned alive? Where was god when Europeans committed genocide on millions of native americans to claim America? How DARE you think god has helped some of the people you cared for. How selfish of you. How narcissistic. How self serving. You die, you go in the ground. Bacteria eat you. End of story.

  • I know, I know..."free will"..."god has a bigger plan"..."we can't understand it all because we are just dumb humans", etc, etc. You religious zealots have a rationalization for every biblical chapter and verse and I know your argument before you make it. Religion and critical thinking are like oil and water. It's truly impossible for you to think for yourself and realize it's ok to live in reality and a make believe world you were brainwashed into thinking exists.

  • The reason most religious artists sing about God is because there is a built-in, pre-brainwashed audience. There are always exceptions: Amy Grant, POD, Jars Of Clay, etc, but most Christian or religious bands are a big snoozefest, thats why they don't go anywhere commercially.

  • Religious people are unable to think for themselves. That's why they are religious. Lou Gramm will always be one of the greatest voices to sing rock rock songs. If he thinks magical leprechauns are the reason for his survival, that's his choice. If I were God, I probably wouldn't care about what Lou Gramm was singing, because I'd be too busy with saving people from earthquakes in Haiti. Oh wait, God didn't save anybody. Or any of the 6 million Jews either. Nevermind.

  • @GaylordWinchester77 TO GaylordWinchester77's .. its liberal uneducated idiots like your self that make these type of comments... live a learned life & go & get yourself an education , then you will think b-4 your run your mouth on a cuff without much thought!

  • I have no idea what you are mumbling about. I did laugh trying to read it, though.

  • HE still tours behind his secular songs he did from Foreigner/Lou Gramm solo material. Although I don't have a problem with it but I know some Christians that somehow do unfortunately.

  • More power to Lou!! I really do like his first ever Christian CD but I'll never forget his days with Foreigner and the music he made with Mick Jones. As far as Foreigner, their music will allways be a part of my life despite the line up change!! It's the music that matters.

  • As we all know, there is no such thing as god or ghosts or psychics or magic or unicorns, BUT I'm very happy to see Lou is doing things that make him happy. His voice IS Foreigner and anything less is a cover band. This goes for you too, Journey.

  • Really GAY lord? We all know that? Speak for yourself.

  • What if I was gay? Oh yeah, Christians hate homosexuals too. It's in the bible, so why wouldn't you? Anyway, what do you think of Mr. Moonlight? I think it was a great album and Lou's vocals were still operating at peak performance.

  • @GaylordWinchester77

    You are an intolerant, ignorant individual.

    Christians do not hate homosexuals.

    God does not hate the individual who happens to be gay. God hates the sin, not the sinner. God wants all to come to him, including homosexuals. We are all in Gods eyes, nothing but filthy rags.

  • Your bible states: "If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them." I'm sure you'll find someway of rationalizing this into how much God loves. And how dare you say we are filthy rags to God. Remember the bible says we are made in his image.

  • @GaylordWinchester77

    As always you appear to spew your inaccuracies about "My Bible."

    We (man) have all fallen short of the glory of God. Before adam & eve ate from the tree of knowledge, man was sinless and walked in the Garden of Eden with God. When they ate from the tree of knowledge, they knew sin.

    So, Gaylord, all of us are nothing but filthy rags in the sight of God, including you.

  • If believing in something that doesn't exist makes you feel better, that's awesome for you. I choose instead, to think critically and for myself. Like a child believing in Santa Claus, you think a god or Jesus is going to lead you to salvation. If a make-believe book allows you to sleep better at night, I'm all for it. But, as for myself, I live in reality where God, the Easter Bunny, and Spider man are purely fictional characters. But, bring me some proof and we can talk. But I still love Lou.

  • @GaylordWinchester77

    As a caregiver of the dying, I know there is a god, regardless of what you think. I have seen enough with my own eyes to determine God's presence.

    Proof is it, there have been studies of life after death. You may want to research that further.

    Be aware, in "My Bible", God scoffs at "mans knowledge."

    In "My Bible", God states "Only Fools say there is no God."

    We have one thing we can agree on, I love Lou also,

  • Comment removed

  • Very touching interview. God bless you Lou.

  • It's great to see Lou back! Of course, all the things he been through is very sad and I would love to see him in Foreigner rather than christian rock, but for his own sake I'm happy for him!
