This video captures in excellent fashion how I would like to remember myself at 17. It's not how I actually was at 17 but it is how I would like to remember myself. I think they call that the myopia of hindsight.

Women were sexy in the 80s . . . partly b/c of the 40s throwback makeup, permed hair, padded shoulders, high-heeled boots . . . do we have to wait until the 2020s to see women like that again? Bring 'em back!
I remember this song playing in a diner when iw as having my first date. then again when i was in my car over sunset cliffs in San Diego. I do not know who posted this, but you just made my life a little brighter.
thanks ChopsMeister i always wanted to know the girls name and all ..i use to watch this video over and over again....love the song and I was in love with this chick!...lol..i was probably 22
Sadly, Lou Gramm has always been majorly under-rated, but to me he his the greates singer ever and has such an inspirational voice. Thanks Lou for being the person to lighten up my day; God Bless.
This song was a guilty pleasure for me in '87 But Lou Gramm wasn't "cool" so I didn't tell anyone. Imagine how dumb I felt when I saw REM (a "cool band")and Michael Stipe said it was his favorite song right before they performed it....
I saw Lou Gramm in concert tonight at the Raleigh Wide Open celebration.He looks absolutly NOTHING like he did when he was younger.I know people change as they age but I would have never recognized him if he hadnt said who he was when he came out on stage.He still sounds pretty good though.I had a really good time.
Sometimes I view this video and think how much I missed out on in my teenage years. Then a moment later I am astonished on all of the things I enjoyed! In the end this song gives me a renewed spirit going forward. This song has meaning on so many different levels.
Actully, I was singing this on karaoke at my local bar the other night. The DJ said I'm the first person who's ever sung this in all the time he'd been doing the job and he didn't even know who Lou Gramm was. Guess there's not too many of us old rockers left!
I hate he's not with foreigner anymore but there is not a foreigner without Lou I saw him in concert at the old colisium in Charlotte NC in the early 80s and he and the group rocked, all time favorite bands I had heard he had brain surgery for a tumor and has started singing again, God Bless you Lou,
I remember in 1990 when I was a year old, my parents used to dance to this song. Even though I was very little it brings back memories of better days.
I only saw Foreigner once, in 1985.They had a local choir come on stage for 'I Want to Know What Love Is'. During the show this guy comes rushing down the aisle (my 2 friends and I were on the 2nd level at Reunion Arena in Dallas) and slipped on a spilled coke. He goes flying, almost over the rail, and let me tell you this guy was hanging on to the rail with his legs up in the air and was somehow able to pull himself back over. My friends were freaking...
Lou Gramm and Foreigner are awesome live! I have been fortunate enough to catch them in concert before Lou had his strokes. Even after that they opened for Journey.
all time dream concert: Foreigner AND Journey perform on the same stage....of course, with the original vocals, NO substitutes for Steve Perry and Lou Gramm!!!!
didn't know Lou Gramm had strokes? I knew he had a brain tumor and subsequent surgery and I know strokes are a complication of that surgery....just didn't know he had any afterwards. Such a shame!
I don't know if you just meant similarity (I don't see that though!), but this is actress Traci Lind (aka Tracy Lind, and a few more variations). She was on an ep of 21 Jump Street and in several movies in the '80s (like My Boyfriend's Back and Class of 1999), then a few more in the '90s (The Road to Wellville, The End of Violence). I always liked the song and thought she was gorgeous. If you want to see a young Denise Richards, watch the 90210 episode where Jackie Taylor marries Mel Silver.
Every YOUNG male, should see this video, or here this song! IT is COMING OF AGE, at its VERY BEST! EVERY WOMAN I KNOW that is around my age/older/or younger, absolutely LOVE this SONG, and EVERY GUY GETS IT! GREAT SONG LOU!
One of the great riding or cruising songs for the highway...try it on an ipod, just before dawn on a deserted outback highway, thundering along on a big bike, watching the sunrise over the desert...fantastic...
When this came out in 86, 87 or 88, I was in my late teens, & remember going out on a Friday night getting all pumped up when I watched this video - Thanks for posting
