You ARE NOT Foreigner!! What you're is a Foreigner's cover band. And by the way....., when Lou Gramm step up at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame platform, DONT EVEN DARE, to stand next to him. This is WAY ABOVE your pay grade. This is ONLY for original members. When the accolades and awards be given WAIT for them to get off the platform, THEN and ONLY then, you'll be allowed to step up and play as the cover band that you are for our enjoyment and pleasure. We are Foreigner MY ASS!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's the audacity of these Buffoons. I wouldn't EVEN allowed them to step on the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame stage. Mick Jones made a huge mistake by forcing the hand and the legacy of Foreigner. What he should it do, was to create another band with them and play/record/tour their own sound and band signature.
The song was about Lou Grammatico leaving Rochester NY for New York city to join Foreigner. Mick was already living in New York city when he called Grammatico to audition for the band. It was afterward Lou Grammatico became Lou Gramm largely because Bud Prager asked Lou to shorten his name so the media wouldn't butcher his real name up.😮😮😮
I love all of this music video; but, Kelly, your voice should be more clear and perceivable. Most definitely. 🙋🧡 Do it over. Maximize yourself and all of it so the power of your previous recordings at least is matched. In a new version, take away the hissing sound.
It was new year's Eve 1979 going into a new decade & Foreigner was playing the Seattle Center Coliseum & for being my first Concert it was Awesome! It was definitely a different time! You could do whatever you wanted! Nobody gave a shit if you lit a joint or did blow or anything! And the Foreigner just kicked fuckin ass!
