INSPIRED BY A TRUE STORY?! First Time Hearing Foreigner - Juke Box Hero Reaction!

[@rmacdougallaliasdogviticus]

I suggest 'Urgent' next just because I like the Sax solo so much. Cheers.

[@arnodobler1096]

so good

[@BlackieNuff]

Oh gawd yess! That sax!

My suggestion as well!!!

This was the ultimate skating rink song back in the day

[@Tampahop]

Foreigner was just a hit machine.

[@wg1294]

It is a crime that Foreigner wasn't inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame until this year. This band was a staple of the radio in my youth. Turn it up!

[@legalizitt]

Foreigner and Journey suck.

[@wildbill7081]

[@kingbrutusxxvi]

Not being inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Shame should be a badge of honor. No rock band should want to be inducted into an organization that thinks a list of "legendary rock musicians" include Tupac Shakur, Dolly Parton, Queen Latifah, Mary J Blige, NWA, Madonna, Michael Jackson, ABBA, Stevie Wonder, Donna Summer and on and on and on... and on and on...

How about “Urgent”?

[@chuckwhite3176]

Great catalogue of songs. As good as they sound, I really can't believe it took so long for them to make it into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. You've made my 50-something teenager a happy man today!

[@adrianchase6922]

If you want to hear one of the greatest sax solos of all time, then "Urgent" is a must!!!

[@stevenseul361]

Hey guys great reaction. 2 more songs off first album. "Feels Like The First Time" (their first single and 3rd single off album is "Long Long Way From Home"

[@David-s6e4q]

Banger 🔥 Lou has some of the best vocals of all time. He doesn’t get nearly the amount of credit that he’s due

[@MarkRichter-j2l]

HOT BLOODED...............PERIOD!

[@landreaulover]

Love this album. Urgent is my favorite, but 'Jukebox Hero' is really in a league of its own.

[@Masonicbrother]

Juke Box Hero and Hot Blooded were my favorite songs from Foreigner. They have so many huge hits.

[@dedcowbowee]

Hot Blooded was fun, it was played everywhere all the time, lol.

[@Inkymits]

I might throw Head Games in there too.

[@Masonicbrother]

@@dedcowbowee Hot Blooded always takes me back to WKRP tv show. Les putting on that hairpiece while the song is playing.

[@mikefetterman6782]

In 1981,. I was still 10,11 years old. My father had died the year before and mom was trying to get me out of the depression and insisted that "Tomorrow you must go in to school, and pick an instrument to play, you are joining the band." My moody pret een self stormed to my room and cranked my stereo in defiance. The first song that came on was "URGENT" by Foreigner with one of the hottest saxophone solos in history. The next morning, I chose the saxophone, and became a natural. I went on to play trumpet as well a couple years later, and my senior year, I heard Stevie Ray Vaughan, and, also, the movie "Crossroads"(Ralph Macchio, Joe Seneca, Jami Gertz,.......blue guitar movie) and I now play guitar, bass, and a little keyboards as well. It has been 43 years now, and music is my only religion, my only spirituality, my only sacred belief system. And it rocks!

[@jamesvomsaal]

Go back to the first album with. The Damage Is Done ! Great reaction

[@JeffLowder-k1j]

“URGENT” should be next…””Hot Blooded”..”Double Vision” “Waiting for a Girl Like You”..all great!

[@ws3764]

Im a teen of the 70s. this band was amazing for all of us!

[@sandranettles4833]

Absolutely ❤

[@texadan314]

Liked this song as a teenager. Liked your reaction and comments. And I could watch Sam rocking out all day long.

[@andrewmaplethorpe1125]

Awesome song. I’d suggest Urgent, Feels Like The First Time, Head Games or Double Vision as future choices.

[@davidpalahinjak8954]

ABSOLUTE BANGER! 🔥

[@sharonchaput9705]

Foreigner is phenomenal! So many great hits. Lou Gramm has such a fantastic, unique rock voice.

[@robertmillar8246]

"Urgent" and "Waiting For a Girl like You" were their other great songs from that album

[@karinanderson9722]

This is Foreigner at their best. This would come on at dances and the floor went crazy! Total jam! 😀

[@ShadowRyu]

Another band I think you'll both really enjoy is LoverBoy. Canadian rock group from the 80s as well. Turn me loose, working for the weekend, lovin every minute of it are good places to start

[@brooksbott3229]

I believe that this was one of the best albums of all time I've enjoyed it ever since its release

[@bobbyrodriguez5309]

Saw Foreigner for the "4" tour in 1981; they were on fire during the whole show. Amazing band! I guarantee you'll both love these recommendations: "Feels Like the First Time", "Headknocker" "Dirty White Boy", "Hot Blooded", "Double Vision", "Head Games", and "Urgent". You're Welcome. :)

[@Hardrock1a]

This whole album was fire! 🔥🔥

[@davidpalahinjak8954]

Hot Blooded by Foreigner! 😎🔥🤘🎸

[@jskit92380]

Double Vision, Head Games, Urgent and Feels Like The First Time are great Foreigner tunes. Thanks for your reactions. ☮🖤🤘

[@arnodobler1096]

My first Vinyl Album, best ever, not one bad song!

[@donholliday2068]

I was a teenager during this time and Foreiner was one of my favorite groups. They had some great songs: Cold as Ice, Double Vision, Long Way from Home, Blue Morning Blue Day, That was Yesterday, Heart Turns to Stone and so many more. Even some of the songs that weren’t radio hits like Stranger in My Own house were great. I enjoyed the majority of the songs on the albums. I love seeing younger people react to music from my generation. I enjoy watching your reactions.

[@davidpalahinjak8954]

Midnight Blue by Lou Gramm! 😎🔥🤘🎸

[@JBS30000]

Another great one from them is "Waiting for a Girl Like You"

[@bretttodd6470]

[@gamecity94]

I saw Foreigner in 1978 when they toured Australia such an unbelievable band....i met all the Original Band members including Ed Gagliardi (RIP) who was an amazing Bass Player...so good live on stage.....and Lou Gramm's Vocals...WOW one of the very best Rock Singers ever........

[@rubroken]

Took my wife to see them on Oct 9th for her birthday! Played an 11 minute version of this! Great show! Loverboy opened for them!

[@mayLibertyprevail1a]

"4" is a great album, solid throughout. Also contains the huge ballad, "Waiting For A Girl Like You." So many great songs by Foreigner, regardless of album. Keep digging in!

[@randyhanson9441]

Thanks for listening to this song. Jukebox Hero has always been my favorite from them. Finally inducted into Rock Hall of Fame last month. They've had a great set of musicians over the years, and Lou Gramm offered vocals that at times reminds one of a Robert Plant. They were around for the Arena Rock Era. Songs that ranged from ballads (which almost split the band up with their inclusion). You haven't listened to Waiting For a Girl Like You. Take credit for that one Phil, as Sam will love it. To power songs that could fill the arenas and stadiums. They have a deep catalog. For some reason many of their titles could take place in an emergency room. Hot Blooded, Cold As Ice, Urgent, Head Games, Headknocker.

[@AndICanTalk2]

One of my favorite songs of the decade. So great. Great band. Saw them in the early 90s, and they were still great.

[@1BobsYourUncle]

Foreigner was my first concert. Loud as hell, my ears were numb for days but they sounded great.

[@toddgilleylen3438]

Not one bad song on the album. A classic album.

[@rodthebodfromcanada]

Foreigner 4 is a great album top to bottom.

[@craigoxford5611]

This song Juke Box Hero charted on Billboard hot 100 on February 13, 1982 and it peaked at number 26 and was there 12th single and they have had a total of 23 singles.

[@cindysimpson1046]

Feels Like the First Time is awesome 👌! ❤

[@blue-sc1se]

My favorite music era was late 70s thru early 80s and Foreigner was a major player. Lou Gramm has to be one of the best rock vocalists ever.

[@TrevorHarden]

I still believe foreigner is in the top 10 maybe top five classic rock bands of all time and nobody wants to admit it. This song rocks.

[@general-cromwell6639]

Ahhh...so many songs. So many great hits and memories. One of the top bands in history. Anyways, looking forward to more. All the best to you and yours. Cheers.

[@kidpoker007]

One of the great Rock bands of the 70's and Lou's voice is amazing!!!

[@Proud.American58]

So glad you guys got to this song now you gotta hit up far in his first album. I remember cold as ice was on that at a second but you definitely got a check out long long way from home although any any song from the first album fantastic you could also check out blue moon, blue deck all right that’s it. Take care.

[@gillesjacques1022]

I bought the cassette when it came out, used to play it in my car, cranked to the max! 💯

[@HeavyTopspin]

Lou Gramm is one of the most iconic rock voices. Also had a few great solo songs: "Midnight Blue," and "Lost in the Shadows" from the amazing soundtrack to The Lost Boys.

Another great song this reminds me of is Shooting Star by Bad Company

[@beckiramsey9561]

[@mikematusek4233]

This was the first concert I paid for in college, Jan. 1982. They had an inflated Juke box on stage that they blew up at the end of the song. Great show, try Hot Blooded.

I always loved " At War with the World", off their self titled album. One of the best songs for teens and 20 somethings growing up in ANY generation.

[@mikeeckel2807]

"Juke Box Hero" was always a highlight of a Foreigner concert... the huge Rockola being inflated and then exploding at the end of the song...The lihht of thr explosion was blinding. I've seen Foreigner five times.

Great one guys, this is one off my all time favourit albums from Foreigner .My Fav song from this album is * Woman In Black * Love the intro in that song ; ) Have a good one take care an stay safe ; ))

Foreigner have so many hits, try 'Urgent' next. It has a great sax solo!

[@rockzhard2009]

you were absolutely right, this killed live.

[@jameswilson7790]

This album is noteworthy for Mutt Lange and Mick Jones collaborating on the production. Mutt Lange worked with AC/DC, Def Leppard, The Cars, and Bryan Adams. Phil mentioned the percussion. That was a trademark of Lange.

[@southernbella6535]

"Dirty White Boy" NEXT ! you wont be sorry , great reaction and song choice. Foreigner will never let you down :) Keep rocking guys love you both !

[@MusicandCatLover-vc6jb]

My favorite song is "Starrider" from the album "Foreigner". This debut one was my first rock LP i bought.

saw them in concert, early 80s.... absolutely fantastic...great reaction... thank you......

[@ericfisher1360]

Man this reminds me of being at the roller rink when I was a kid.

[@Eowyn187]

They don't get anywhere near the respect and appreciation they deserve. Never have. Not in my opinion. They're music is gold.

[@cadleo]

Love this track. Great suggestion

[@nahkohese555]

Bad Company was formed a couple years earlier, but the bands had similar sounds. Bad Company was maybe a bit more raw and gritty. More importantly, Bad Company's "Shooting Star" was a song with a story along the same lines. Give it a listen, I think you'll like it

This was playing at Planet Fitness night before last, among great songs from all times. So it's definitely "around", still.

I can almost predict that you would think Urgent would capture first place. Best saxophone solo ever in a song!!!!

[@davesage4931]

Gerry Rafferty begs to differ, but it’s an awesome sax solo.

[@alchemy-oi8xf]

If I could only choose one song among the many Foreigner suggestions you've received, (they really were a singles-oriented band), I'd side with "Urgent". The song is HOT in every way possible, including the iconic sax solo by the legendary Jr. Walker.

[@FeanorLives]

"Double Vision" should be your next hit by them and give "Urgent" a listen too. They're both bangers!

[@JavierGarciaNevares]

You should do "Urgent", from this same album, next. You'll love it too.

[@jamesnorthup7717]

Foreigner has so many hits! My bass player from high school now plays in a foreigner tribute band, when I saw them it was like two hours nonstop hits!! After the encore they were gonna leave without playing this but the crowd wasn't having it, so they came back and did it! 🤣 I suggest Hot Blooded next..

[@warrengee-f9l]

Amazing Tune ! ... I was in high school

[@RealDiehl99]

Never appreciated this song as a kid. Later in life upon hearing this song... Now I think the changes throughout the song give it an element of drive and power!

[@shawn.m.schmidt]

In 1991, I was a junior in high school. I got last-minute tickets to the Whitesnake Slip of the Tongue show with Steve Vai at the Portland Memorial Coliseum. The seats turned out to be amazing. After the show, I was the first out back at the buses, waiting to meet the band. Tommy Aldridge came out briefly, and I got to say hi to him. Steve's guitar tech gave me a Vai guitar pick, and I even got to say hi to Tawny Kitaen. This was all pretty standard back then. The cool part, and what this song reminds me of, is that I was that kid sitting on the curb at the Coliseum, waiting for my mom to come pick me up. I saw the tour bus pull out and head away. Tommy was in the doorwell, talking to the driver. As they drove off, they opened the door, and Tommy gave me a wave goodbye. One of the most awesome moments of my life.

[@ShadowRyu]

This song was my favorite song up until I was about 17. The reason I picked up the guitar at 11 was because this song. Still 10/10 banger today

[@kallsop2]

Foreigners first four albums are absolute rockers with no bad tracks. This tour was the second time I saw them live in 1982, the first was Head Games in 1979. For this song they had a giant jukebox that they inflated during the song and then blew it up at the end of the song with smoke and fireworks. The opening act for the show I saw in 1982 was this young guy that only had two albums out and was working on his third and he played what would be the title track to his third with the song Cuts Like A Knife. Bryan Adams put on a great show.
