Lou IS THE VOICE of Foreigner, and Co-Writer of their greatest songs. I am English, loved Mick before Foreigner, but when Lou came into the fold, NO-ONE COMPARES! Lou is THE Greatest Rock Singer EVER!! And such a humble, beautiful person whom Loves Our Lord Jesus Christ with All His Heart! THAT is what is MOST Important!! Love You Lou, have seen you live many times but will see you One on One when We are Together in G-d's Heavenly Kingdom!!

Agree, Lou’s voice changed after surgery and a lengthy treatment and recovery. He put on enormous amount of weight he cannot lose. I’m so happy Mick found Kelly and Foreigner was reborn. Kelly was brave to take a position as front man, knowing he would be criticized by Lou Gramm fans. Kelly paid his dues and helped keep foreigner touring 20 more years. Love Kelly, and Jeff Pillson. It their farewell tour,last chance to see them live!

I have Lou's book "JUKE BOX HERO my 5 decades in Rock n Roll " since 2012 when it was released. Lou according to his book was very angry and said Mick wouldn't budge on the 5% which was a major insult to Lou. Mick took the whole 100% of the royalty ratio for himself and to this day Lou never got a cent , not even for singing "I want to know what love is " despite the fact Lou arranged and did the vocal take on the record without Jones. It was Lou and their engineer. Also Lou for 5 years faced many rejections from Mick because everytime Lou came up with a song himself, Mick constantly rejected Lou songs 🎵 which ultimately led to Lou's solo albums READY OR NOT and LONG HARD LOOK. Midnight Blue was offered to the Foreigner but Mick said "This is not a good song " but Lou fixed that. Lou put the song on his first solo album while Mick took a big extended vacation in 1986 without telling Gramm, Elliot and Wills. Lou finished the READY OR NOT album by the time Mick returns. "Midnight Blue" in 1987 charted at #5 on Billboard and was the most listened to requested song 🎵 on American radio that whole year, yep a buzz Foreigner songs never got and Mick was pissed , he was in mortal fear that Lou was going to ditch Foreigner. Mick went whining to Atlantic records and they quickly backed off promoting Lous Ist and 2nd solo albums. That's why the follow up song the title Track READY OR NOT didn't go anywhere. There's a video to the title but promoting was stiffed because of Mick Jones and also the follow up song "TRUE BLUE LOVE " which came after #6 hit "Just between you and me " from LONG HARD LOOK (1989)also has a video that song but they backed off promoting it out fear that Lou would leave Foreigner. Lou left Foreigner TWO times. 1990 and in 2003 because of never ending conflicts with domineering Mick Jones who now has PARKINSONS DISEASE. 48:51

Lou’s fame belies his genuineness. One would never confuse the man with some overblown, self-important rock star snob. Having had the honor of briefly making his acquaintance I was struck by how he seemed to be an Everyman despite his having become immortalized in song. He’s a genuine rocker. He loves his muscle cars and the manner in which he was treated by some of his own people is a disgrace and an affront to humanity. God bless Lou.

No dis to Mick but the words/music to JUKE BOX HERO and the song Head Games were Lou's songs . Mick took sole credit for a lot of things but those two songs were Lou's babies. During the 1987 READY OR NOT tour (as he opened for Steve Miller ) Lou performed both songs in his set list with his solo songs. Those concerts were on KZbin. They've been taken down. On Rumble there's a full 1987 solo concert Lou did in New York but the two Foreigner songs 🎵 are cut out. Why ? I don't know.

'I felt that I had shaped Lou into what he was' says Mick - seriously?!???? Pity that the video did not mention Lou's second album or his formation of Shadow King, further reasons for Mick to be worried about Lou's success away from Foreigner. One big error is that they state that Lou had quit alcohol and cocaine by 1997. He had, in fact, got sober and clean in *1992*.

Thank you very much for posting this documentary -- Foreigner fan from the very first (1977 was my freshman year of high school), and saw the tour for Double Vision, which was Foreigner in their prime (the original six guys). There's a not-so-odd parallel with The Who -- it's really "the guitarist's band" BUT it doesn't all come together without an incredible Rock vocalist (Daltrey in The Who, Gramm in Foreigner). Standing ovation for Foreigner finally being inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame --- just hope Lou and Mick don't kill one another on stage at the induction LOL!

Interesting to hear Mick Jones's perspective on "Midnight Blue". Mick Jones said that it sounded like something Foreigner could have done. Lou Gramm said in an interview that he presented "Midnight Blue" to Mick Jones and his answer after 20 minutes was "it's not bad but not for us". "There are 3 sides to the story", Mick's side, Lou's side and the truth.

When I bought their first album as a 20-year old lover of rock and roll, I had no idea they would become such a phenomenon. But then, after buying their second album, I knew they were here to stay. Double Vision and Hot-Blooded had to be the best two songs ever on a rock album. Even though the album cover on their debut was pretty lame, you couldn't deny these guys were the real deal.

Some information was not in chronical order. It's strange that they ended the documentary as if everything was good here on out when it wasn't. Lou split from the band yet again due to Mick's obsessive control. Makes no sense why they ended this the way they did. Fast forward to their induction to Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, Lou and Mick had not spoken in years prior and after their induction, they went back to never speaking. With that said: the worst of this documentary was when Mick gave himself credit for Lou's success after Lou made his first solo album. Then to say the band could have sung his biggest hit from the album is a joke because Lou did offer it to Mick who thought it didn't make any sense. I do not want to take sides, but let's be real. Lou could move on his own while Mick who is now using a different singer can only play songs that were hits with Lou. They both found a break into recognition together, but don't mistake talent when one has it. Mick and Lou both can write songs, but only Lou can sing of the two.

Let’s see : On the first album, Mick had four solo compositions. He co-wrote five with Lou (lyrics) and one with Al Greenwood Double Vision was Mick wrote four on his own. Lou wrote the lyrics to four songs with Mick and one with Ian McDonald. The instrumental was Jones, Greenwood and McDonald. Head Games was Mick and Lou on four tracks, Mick solo on four, Lou and Ian on one and Lou and Al on another. Foreigner 4 was six collaborations from Lou and Mick, four solo Jones songs. Agent Provocateur was the wheels coming off

@@terrencereardon6374 it was meant to be sarcastic due to the hundreds of people posting Lou's account of being ripped off. I should have been more clear and put 95/5 after the words, lol. Thanks though, you did your homework!!!

27:47 I called BS on all of that. Foreigner was already a established band by the time “I want to know what love is” came out. No image was being changed. People were not coming to the show, thinking they were going to see a ballad group. you’re making stuff up just to get reaction.

Plus, Agent Provocateur started out slow on the charts, back then, and gradually picked up steam with every single released. It could have gone another way, like tanking or stalling all together. Of course, the album was/is a legendary classic. As a child just starting out in the early '80s, I recall "I Wanna Know What Love Is" playing often in my home at that time.

Pink Floyd with A Momentary Lapse of Reason and the song The Dogs of War which most Roger Waters fans and most Pink Floyd fans hate with a passion. Roger Waters stayed true to himself with concept albums and The Final Cut, The Pros and Cons sound timeless musically and Radio KAOS is 1980s. Roger fans to this day call for David Gilmour’s head on a silver platter. Rush lost fans with Big Money on Power Windows. Genesis went pop and Phil Collins was to blame.
