Foreigner - 10/19/2024 - Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony - Cleveland, OH

[@shotgunsnare]

so happy lou showed up ! in his youth he was one of the best singers on the planet , he deserves to be right where he is ~

[@paulmazzola398]

Lou Gramm is still the best singer in rock and roll.

[@AvStevieStevenJamesDrums]

Foreigner was the very first band I heard on a juke box at a small burger joint “Feels like the first time” 1977, I was 10. Lou’s voice is pure Gold. And Kelly Clarkson’s voice HOLY CRAP!!!

[@stephenosullivan9016]

In his prime, he is easily top 3 ROCK singers of all-time!!!

[@DeeCeeCT]

Lou Gramm and Freddie Mercury. My greatest 2 of all time.

[@jeffbartko3401]

That was perfect. The band sounded great. Kelly was amazing. And the crowd pop for Lou’s legendary voice. Lastly, Lou’s genuine happiness in the moment let him recapture that power & hold his own & then some! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@ROBERTWILLIAMS-jc4bj]

Way to go Lou. Chill-bumps. Foreigner should have been in the HOF 20 years ago.

YESSSSS

[@suzannehughes8697]

Totally agree, I love Hot Blooded, I'm 71 and I still play their albums,

[@lucy661000]

Absolutely, I was a fan ever since I can remember, and that's a long time, they should have been inducted long before most others, even probably before Kelly was born

[@stevemdav]

Lou is my favorite vocalist of all time. Often imitated, never replicated. This man has overcome so many odds and the fact he’s still able to perform is incredible

[@donnybailey8810]

LOU GRAMM IS THE VOICE OF FOREIGNER IS AND ALL WAYS WILL BE 😎⚡️👍⚡️🇺🇸

[@362chop]

He was Foreigner.

[@marisalazzara5925]

Damn straight!

[@kendrabryant4738]

Kelly Clarkson was excellent, as always! Her voice is truly magnificent! There’s a reason why she’s asked to do these sorts of events and why she’s so respected in the music industry. So, whether you like that she was there or not, at least be respectful enough to admit the obvious.

[@rogerwolfe1888]

She Frickin killed it ❤ amazing voice to pay tribute to an iconic Foreigner

[@ItsaMadMadMadMadWorld]

She’s horrible. She ruined the whole darn song.

[@basher5107]

I’m sorry but she sucks ass,she was just awful

[@rileyr3545]

Even though his voice isn’t what it was, Lou still has and I can feel the passion his voice always brings. It definitely gives me goosebumps ❤️❤️

[@JohnConnor-x7l]

Same here. I don't cry much but my eyes were wet, and are again. The memories of the Foreigner concerts I've been to sit well, with this.

[@davidrose2704]

Lou actually didn’t want to sing this song, but the band wanted to do it. I had heard that he had gone back-and-forth with the band about it, and he wanted to do Juke Box Hero instead

[@toddsivado6089]

Me too. 1979 summer jam 2 Louisville Ky and agent provocatuar tour

[@robertduncombe7684]

​@@toddsivado6089I saw the Agent Provocateur tour in October/85 in Calgary and what an incredible show. At the end when the house lights came up every member of the band stayed at the front of the stage and shook hands or high-fived all the fans who was were within reach of the stage with no safety barrier between, which lasted a good 5 minutes during an ongoing standing ovation. Out of the several hundreds of shows I've attended this was probably the greatest show of respect from a band back to the fans that I have witnessed! Ps loved the inflatable jukebox!! Cheers!

I got chills for Lou. Bless.

[@candyapple5924]

Me too ❤

[@steverogers2603]

Me three, and I’ve never experienced this before. I think it’s because I have such a high opinion of his vocals and to see him up there so many years later was so cool.

[@jinkeetangonan2218]

Kelly, you’re electric! Lou, thank you!

[@J2000LT]

Lou Gramm is Foreigner! Seeing him up on stage tonight and singing like the front-man he was back in the late-70's & 80's brought back some great memories! He and the original members of Foreigner should have been inducted 30 years ago. Thank God things changed in the Rock & Roll HOF organization making it possible!

[@studiodlux]

Yea Lou Gramm!! U are the voice!

Lou was the best . He is and always will be my favorite singer and rocker.

[@RickBaker0529]

Lou Gramm has always killed it!!! One of the top 5 rock singers of all time.

[@dundeedm]

Actually its taken years for him to get his voice back after being ill in the 90s. For years after his voice had suffered dramatically. Most people would leave his shown disappointed because his voice wasn't there. He has worked very hard to recover it. Just wish it wasn't for this crap song.

[@MarieJohansson-e1o]

[@Sara-is8rk]

@JohnHancock-t6p i agree with you about her voice, but as I said in my own comment, she overpowered Lou when they were singing together. They didn't need her. She wasn't going into the Hall of Fame, so why have her up there?
