WE LOVED IT!| Foreigner - Cold As Ice FIRST TIME HEARING REACTION

[@melaniejordan1199]

There's not a bad Foreigner song and Lou Gramm's voice is unparalleled for the time!

[@Music-Is-Real-Love]

Agree 100 %.

[@ducksoff7236]

Freddy Mercury disagrees, Bobby Kimball disagrees, Noddy Holder disagrees, Dio disagrees, Ian Gillian disagrees, and this list goes on. I love Lou Gramm and Foreigner is one of of my favorite bands ever but calling his voice "unparalleled for the time" is pretty ridiculous.

[@melaniejordan1199]

@@ducksoff7236 Those are other types of music. I wouldn't put them as apples-to-apples with a sound like Foreigner. And calling someone ridiculous for their opinion about music is just harsh, dude. Be nicer. Be better. Peace.

[@ducksoff7236]

@@melaniejordan1199 They are not "different types of music" LOL!! Everyone of them is classic rock act from mid 70's- early mid 80's. Besides a comment like "voice is unparalleled" is disingenuous and an outright lie. At best its just ignorant. Expand your horizons and quit judging people and giving artists some placement on some arbitrary podium. Music isn't a sport. Love how you aren't only judgmental you also think you can just tell anyone what to do. Hilarious.

He's singing about himself, leaving the world behind to be a rock star

[@roydavis5222]

I have seen these guys three times 1977, 1994 and 2003. In 1994 I saw them in Guam, went to their Hotel on the Beach bought them all a round, talked them about their 1977 concert when they opened for Skynyrd, I got all their autographs to boot.

[@gnrnando88]

What a privilege watch them in 77. I always dream about to have the chance to see Lou sing Starrider live in that time. Peace bro!

[@blueeyedcowboy8291]

Had to be a top 10 night of your life. That would have been amazing!

[@glenrosarian2352]

'Cold as Ice' is definitely my favorite track on the 'Foreigner' album!

[@tomquigley2991]

Local boy Lou Gramm from here in Rochester, NY has one of the great voices of all time in rock music. Was able to meet him a few years ago at a friend's birthday party, and after a period of some health issues, his voice seems to be as strong as ever these days. Great choice for listening!

[@smbake]

A cousin of mine worked at a Friendly's where he and his family would come in for dinner. She said he was a really nice guy.

[@hondaphan4172]

I'm a day-one diehard Foreigner fan and I've been fortunate enough to briefly talk to Lou a handful of times over the years and he truly is a soft-spoken, down-to-earth nice guy. I literally wanted to cry when I learned about his brain tumor operation in '97 because he simply blew me away when I had second row seats for a Foreigner/REO/Frampton show in Camden, NJ the previous summer. He sounds much better now than he did during the '99, '00, and '02 Foreigner tours(saw them around twenty times over that span) but sadly he's still not what he used to be as age and health took it's toll on that incredible voice he was blessed with.

[@tammycordrey9317]

Enjoy watching you all jamming to the music I grew up with. No auto tune you really had the talent to sing and played your own instruments. 70' and 80's music the best some of the early 90's. Awesome!!!!!!!!!

[@Music-Is-Real-Love]

YES!!. No Autotune!!.

[@yebopa2692]

Let's not act there aren't a million brilliant singers now

[@andresflores1500]

Saw Foreigner for their 1st show of their tour in '84 in Baton Rouge, La. & that tours last show in Austin, Tx.. Lou Graham's voice was actually better & stronger at the end. Guy was a machine. Incredible is the only word.

[@Hobodeluxe960]

Feels like the First Time. Urgent. Juke Box Hero ....the rabbit hole is deep.

[@grege9019]

I remember hearing this band for the first time (almost 50 years ago). Foreigner was an incredible collection of talent and was destined for greatness.

[@WavesRay]

What a great song. This is how Foreigner entered our lives.

[@rjjcms1]

Yep,first song of theirs I heard back in the summer of 1978,and what a great track to begin with. Followed by Hot Blooded later that year.

[@thorjustin95]

This is one of those running songs. If you workout and do a lot of running listen to this for your pace.

[@mlkuhnpdx]

Two other songs with great power riffs reminiscent of "Juke Box Hero" are "At War with the World" and "Blue Monday, Blue Day". Don't miss these gems.

[@TC-bj8pu]

You haven’t heard some of the best until you’ve listened to “Urgent”. Thanks for the reaction!!!

[@theodoreritola7641]

[@markatkinson6248]

Foreigner, what a great band...Can't go wrong!!!

[@oldschool4382]

Everything on this their Debut Album was outstanding and Unique !

[@mercurywoodrose]

this band hit us hard. like "where have they been all our lives" hard? they set the stage with their sound that year. cant describe how that vocal track got us.

[@hondaphan4172]

I'll never forget the first time I heard their incredible newly-released debut album when I was a senior in high school. One night I was riding around town in my buddy's VW Beetle and he plopped their cassette tape into his deck and I was simply blown away by it....Lou's incredible vocals, Mick's guitar style, the background vocals, the songwriting, etc. just captured me immediately and I became an instant HUGE fan.

[@hondaphan4172]

I highly recommend when you get some spare time to sit down and listen to their self-titled debut album in it's entirety...Feels like the First Time, Cold As Ice and Long Long Way From Home were the hits but the album is packed with great tunes such as Headknocker, Starrider, Damage is Done, At War With The World, I Need You, etc,etc. I was blown away the first time I heard it when it was released during my senior year of high school.

[@jmcquown]

Love love love that you said with these bands [Foreigner included] "it's like a buffet!" It truly is. Foreigner had a lot of amazing hits. From smooth to Cold to Urgent, to Feels Like the First Time, always about relationships. I was in my 20's when I heard their music. To me, it's classic. Thanks for your reaction to this band! :)

[@carlosvillafierte9119]

Just this summer on june 15th i had went to Missouri for my company 40 year anniversary and foreigner performed i still have the videos of them singing this song and i want to know what Love is had a blast

[@rray848]

This was one of the first songs I learned to play on piano. The one odd part in the piano part is that it has a triplet... that is where you fit 3 notes into a 2 beat section. it is in that piano riff that Jay said he liked. My piano teacher described it as the part where it sounds like your fingers trip on the keys... Dunt Dunt... Dunt Dunt... Dunt Dunt... Dunt... Da Da Dunt I think about piano lessons whenever I hear this song...

[@abelincoln3287]

I highly recommend "Girl on the moon", "Women", "Dirty white boy", "Star rider", "Nightlife", and so many more!

[@joshsmith302]

Big Abe. Good suggestions. I'm leaning towards (Dirty white boy). 👍

[@billdurfy2110]

Good picks! “Dirty White boy” for sure!

[@Shrykespeare]

Great suggestions, Mr. President!

[@Renkk17]

Don't forget " Urgent!" & “Double Vision “

[@yelnek4548]

'Star Rider' is a great song, not as popular as their other songs.

[@puddysue]

One of the finest songs ever... everything about it!

[@jeffreybauer3647]

Lou Gramm is one of those rare vocalists where you understand almost every word he sings. One of the best.

[@christines1709]

Try “Waiting for a Girl Like You” by Foreigner.

[@screwyootube1]

Yes, I think it was a MUCH better love ballad, than I Want to Know What Love is (not that that one's bad). That song takes me back to the 11th grade, and a girl I was CRAZY about, who LOVED Foreigner! ❤ 10 weeks at #2, without going to #1. I think it's still a record, LOL!

Great to listen to on headphones or a quality stereo. Thank you for the reaction, and I'm looking forward to more.

[@markk.4941]

Check out 'Urgent' and 'Double Vision'. Two more great Foreigner songs. I would like you to check out a forgotten and hardly played rock band from the late 70s and early 80s called Shooting Star. Their second album 'Hang On For Yor Life' is one of those that every song is good. I would recommend the songs 'Hollywood', 'Breakout', 'Flesh and Blood', 'Hang On For Your Life' and 'She's Got Money'. Check them out, you won't be disappointed. One of my favorite bands and album.

[@SebGeddy]

Lou Gramm has such a great voice. What about "the Damage is Done" and the last section of it?

[@markbarnwell942]

Written before viewing. Fall 1977 at the Univ of South Carolina Woodrow College. Stoned out of our heads, in dorm rooms, my friends and I listened to this tune so loud. Bose 501 Speakers, Techniques Turntable and a Sony Receiver. Life was good. Oh, to go back for just a moment. I hope yall enjoy this like I did.

[@meboy76]

another great classic song by foreigner its like every time I hear them they have so many classic great hit songs so glad I got to see them in concert 3 times and one the times was with journey also.yes with all journey songs you can feel and hear the passion and love the harmonizing and the sounds the drums the guitar such great band.

That's Mick Jones (one of the greatest guitarists of all time) on keyboard. Billy Joel once tried to duplicate the chords of the intro of "Cold As Ice" and he couldn't figure it out until Mick Jones showed him the chords... Incredible... it's part of a documentary on "Foreigner".

This is my fave Foreigner tune. The first one that made me notice them. I think I was around age 14. 😊

On the topic of Foreigner, it just dawned on me that you haven't touched upon their colleagues in Survivor. They're forever associated with the "Rocky" movies' songs "Eye of the tiger" and "Burning heart", and also boast a plethora of other classic tunes, like "I can't hold back", "Poor man's son", "High on you", "Desperate dreams", "Across the miles" (covered by the legendary Uriah Heep - check THEM out, too!), "It's the singer not the song" and the super ballad "The search is over". Coincidentally, it was his great KZbin rendition of the latter song that landed Arnel Pineda the job as lead singer in Journey :-)
