this is my favourite live performance of any song ever. Kelly Hansen is a fucking gem. I have revisited this video more than a hundred times already. When i'm stoned, when I'm drunk, when I need music in my life. This is the place I come to. Thank you to the uploader and thank you Foreigner for existing. Cheers.
No matter how well or how many times Hansen sings this song a huge majority of the people are gonna think of > LOU, LOU, LOU, LOU, LOU GRAMM FOREVER ! That's how it will remain.
Please stop arguing about who did what better ,this is beautiful, thanks for the post! This guy does an awesome job of performing one of the best songs Foreigner ever did. Both versions are truly beautiful in their own way, and this man's voice is full of passion just as Lou's is. ♥
Haunting. One of the best accoustic performances ever! This lead singers voice is just spectacular. The group recently performed on The Queen Latifah Show and killed it!!
But for a listener who isnt familiar with the history of the band, you gotta admit that this guy has a great voice. I agree with you that no one is better than the original.
I agree Hansen has a nice voice but I hate the fact Lou wrote and sang these songs with Mick and now Mick's on his 3rd new lead singer. Zeppelin and the Beatles would never do what Mick has. Its like replacing Plant, Jagger, Lennon, etc..... Makes me sick to be honest
Wow! I was not expecting that! This kicked ass! I got chills. Not until this acoustic version until I realized how masterfully this song was written. Very well done!! Wish I could've experienced it live!
I have always loved Foreigner, from my very early 20’s! One of my friends, at the time, introduced me to the 80’s bands/music. He was 3 years older than me. I was quite naive to Life, I think. We eventually had 4 Children together…parted ways and the rest is what it is. I have never actually heard, this live version of the song, before now, 14.3.24. lol, I am a natural redhead, now going, white, so started laughing when I heard the comments from Foreigner at the beginning.. and no, definitely not me, that walked in! I’m now 62, still loving this group and songs as much as when I was early 20’s. So, THANK YOU, So Much, FOREIGNER, the melody for my soul! Love, from Australia x
I grew up in the 80s and made many mixed tapes with this song... not sure if it really worked. Yet after all these years, times have changed, I love this song and maybe if I had this version.
lou has one of the best voices out there an so does kelly there both great one is not better than the other.but both have truly beautiful voices.these songs...so many memories..thanks
Two different singers there should be no debate. While saying that, Lou will always be in my heart as the lead singer. Kelly is no Lou we all get that, but he has a great voice and we should all be glade he is keeping Foreigner alive.
I so wish I were in one of those chairs singing with them.. oh this so cool and im at the same time closing my eyes listening.. very cool.. .... i now miss my band.....;(
WHY ARE YOU GUYS COMPLAINING AND ARGUING AT ALL. JUST LOVE FOREIGNER FOR THEIR HISTORY AND CURENT MEMBERS. THEY ARE ALL GREAT NO MATTER WHO PLAYS IN THE BAND !!!!!! 16 TOP 40 HITS AND WHEN THEY PLAY LIVE THEY SOUND EXACTLY LIKE THE STUDIO ALBUMS !!! NOT TOO MANY BANDS CAN CLAIM THAT DESTINCTION. LOU WAS GREAT, MICK IS A GENIUS AND KELLY AND THE BOYS ARE CARRYING ON SOME OF THE GREATEST SONGS OF OUR GENERATION!!! I'VE SEEN THEM TWICE IN THE PAST FEW YRS AND WILL BE SEEING THEM TWICE MORE IN NJ AND PA IN FEB !!!!!!!!!!! ROCK ON FOREIGNER. I LOOOOOOVE YOU NO MATTER WHAT ANYBODY SAYS !!! YOU ARE MY FAVORITE BAND EVER !!!!!!!!!!
