I don’t know how or why they pick singers to do the tribute . But Kelly did right by Lou ! She followed his direction and I’m sure they rehearsed before getting out there ! The first girl I don’t even know who she is
They wait too long to induct these legends and now they can't even sing their own songs. Really sad and dissapointing. ❤🔥 Love and congratulations to Foreigner ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
I love Sammy but his voice doesn't mesh well with the Foreigner songs, same goes for any female that attempts them! Heck, they had the original singer Lou Gramm there and barely utilized him? Totally ruined the tribute like they did for Ozzy's tribute, as none of the singers could do justice to his songs either, and spoiled it! That's what The Rock&roll hall of Fame does!
I'm a woman and I truly think she butchered that. I am not a professional singer, but I'm pretty sure I could have made that song sound more authentic....@@BlueBlazer47
Nita Strauss played guitar for this woman for about a month before quitting the gig and walking away after realizing how much of a loser and addict Lovato is
Demi Lavato was horrible! WTF were they thinking??? I didn’t mind Sammy doing Hotblooded but than you get Kelly Clarkson dueting with the legend Lou Gramm I want to know what love is and Lou barely sang !! wtf kind of tribute is this???
Beyond terrible. The main problem with all of this is Foreigner should have been inducted 20 years ago. They were a no brainer choice. The guys have aged too much and it took away their well deserved night.
Demi was horrible, butchering that great song. It is a difficult song to sing, though, and she probably did her best....They should have skipped that performance as it is in no way a Tribute.
The wrong people to induct Foreigner. At least Kelly Hanson and members from the recent touring band should have done it. Say what you will but Kelly Hanson and the guys did the songs justice.
The Rap and Shit hall of fame now. Someone should start a real rock n roll hall of fame for the few great rockers left. Music just sucks now! Glad I was born in the 60’s.
To be honest although I think Kelly (Clarkson) has a good voice I also didn't think she delivered the song properly. She starts wailing on parts which don't call for it and it totally destroys the flow of the song. I love Sammy and he was fine but I'm disappointed with the rest of this mess.
@@PC33CCI saw Lou last month, he was excellent. He did "Feels like the first time" in the original key, like a pro, obviously they couldn't find another singer in the whole country who could do this song justice. It just makes you sad,....
I ask you-- HOW can you celebrate a band and induct them without any of the original members ,who are there-- participating? So disappointing to all of us fans who have loved this band for so many years. I would have loved seeing Al Greenwood,Dennis,Elliot and Rick Will on that stage with Lou Gramm. 40 yrs ago there,was no Kelly Clarkson or Demi Lovato. Why are they even on that stage????I cried when Lou finally came out to sing. Foreigner,you deserved so much than this from the,HOF
Im not sure about foreigner but sometimes theres bad blood between the members that they dont want to perform together. Kiss, Van Halen, Guns n roses, comes to mind. I know they are a joke but not everything is the rock halls fault
This is a travesty. They weren't even born when these bands were irrelevant. Why are they singing? Absolutely horrible. Could have found somebody much better
Lou sounded good, but probably couldn't sing these songs all on his own. It sounded like he was struggling slightly so I'm sure he was happy to have a helping hand.
Clarkson is ok on this, at least they had Lou sing a tiny bit, but with Lovato, who I don't have a problem with generally as a singer, she murdered FLTFT. What a huge disappointment, but to be expected for these tribute performances.
I think that the attempts to cover Lou just confirmed what a great singer Lou Gramm was in his prime. It wasn't just the power - it was the soul that he injected. Congrats to the band! Long overdue and too bad that Mick and Dennis couldn't attend.
I like 👍 Demi Lovato. But, the key 🔑 is high for her. She should have sang on top of the notes. That is exactly what Sammy Hagar, Kelly Hansen, Kelly Clarkson and Lou Gramm did. Demi Lovato needs to fire 🔥 her current singing coach and hire one who uses the tip I described. I am a singer and I use the masking technique.
This should have been Lou only singing instead of “guests” & Kelly! Also, this camera work is 💩! There was no need in showing the wires holding up the lighting rigs! There was absolutely NO reason to be turning around & showing the people around you! All the attention should have been in the stage or at least one of the screens showing the stage!
Actually I've seen him twice this year and he does two hour shows without any problems. He sounds fantastic. He always takes time for a meet and greet afterwards. He is more than capable, but he wants to sing HIS song his way, without all the ououuuh wailing.@@theguitarfather1837
One of the greatest rock bands ever and we get two lightweights performing their songs. As much as I'm sick of Sammy, I would have rather him sing instead. The HOF has been losing credibility from the beginning but now it's a total joke.
This is the reality of this “ Hall of fame” inducting people 10 years after their prime. Bad tribute performances. This should have been done years ago when most of the Original members were able to do it.
I went to Lou Gramm concert 3 months ago and he was very good. RR hall planned this for hype and other people playing was very disappointing to me from being a Foreigner fan. Ridiculous and glad I didn’t waste the $ and drive there.
Blame mick and his step son mark dickhead he produces these artist Lou still sings well wtf He wrote part of these songs and this is what we get go see Lou on tour 2024 and 2025
Love the respect for Lou Gramm. The cheer when he came on stage brought me to tears. He is and always will be the voice of Foreigner ❤
Kelly Hansen definitely does justice though
Feels like the first time…. This song has never failed to give me chills, until now….
Her voice is pure torture on this Foreigner classic...
agree. Awful.
Who are you talking about?
I don’t know how or why they pick singers to do the tribute . But Kelly did right by Lou ! She followed his direction and I’m sure they rehearsed before getting out there ! The first girl I don’t even know who she is
Demi was fantastic!
All very challenging songs. Wish I was asked....lol!
Sounds like a cover band playing in the corner of the bar while you’re trying to enjoy your tenderloin with ranch dressing.
Lou wasn’t even that bad… they should have given him more of a chance to shine
Glad they finally made it in. Overdue and well deserved.
This is ridiculous. Lou Gramm and only Lou Gramm should have sang all these songs himself. He was the voice of Foreigner.
And Slash isn't Mick Jones. What's your point??? It's a tribute.
He cant anymore
Can’t wait for the interviews where he complains about the shabby treatment!!
Thus is why RR hof sux so hard. Its all for money. Not respect.
Been that way for years too
Yep. No respect given
Clarkson is an absolute MONSTER! Really brought Lou up BIG TIME!
WOW!!!! Will Ferrell can really play the drums!!!! LOL!!!
And this is why you don't have a woman sing a Foreigner song 🤦♂️ tribute or not!! It even killed Sammy's momentum 😵💫 LouBeast 💪🏽🎤
I think Ann Wilson could have pulled it off
@@Banh__Bao She could have, maybe...she's still recovering from her cancer treatments.
They wait too long to induct these legends and now they can't even sing their own songs. Really sad and dissapointing. ❤🔥 Love and congratulations to Foreigner ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Agree 100%
I love Sammy but his voice doesn't mesh well with the Foreigner songs, same goes for any female that attempts them! Heck, they had the original singer Lou Gramm there and barely utilized him?

Either way, congratulations to Lou my favorite vocalists of all time
Lovato was terrible for the song. They needed a guy with a strong voice.
She has a strong voice. You just hate women. Your problem alone.
I'm a woman and I truly think she butchered that. I am not a professional singer, but I'm pretty sure I could have made that song sound more authentic....@@BlueBlazer47
She was terrible, that song was for Ann Wilson of Heart.
@@BlueBlazer47not. Is a FACT, The voice doesn't fit at all. Next
Ouch...@demi. Ugh
Nota good fit but A for effort.
Why is everyone dissing on Demi? She sounds fine to me and is honoring the band.
she's way off key....have you ever heard the original song?
Hagar was perfect for this though…
Lovato was a bad choice
Nita Strauss played guitar for this woman for about a month before quitting the gig and walking away after realizing how much of a loser and addict Lovato is
Demi Lavato was horrible! WTF were they thinking??? I didn’t mind Sammy doing Hotblooded but than you get Kelly Clarkson dueting with the legend Lou Gramm I want to know what love is and Lou barely sang !! wtf kind of tribute is this???
Lol . Ok, but anemic vocals. Need more power and grit on that
Lou has lost much of his great voice. Kelly should have did Feels like the first time. At least a notch above Demi
I agree. She was a horrible choice...ugh.
Beyond terrible. The main problem with all of this is Foreigner should have been inducted 20 years ago. They were a no brainer choice. The guys have aged too much and it took away their well deserved night.

What wonderful cinematography - you captured the drunk vibe quite well! Blair Witch Project...watch out - JD is in the house! 🙂
I wish Lou would’ve sang more he’s such an influence on me but I’m not gonna lie I think Kelly did a pretty good job
Sooo great to see Lou singing again!
Wow. They could've done away with Demi... let Lou soak up more of his long overdue recognition 💙🖤💙🖤💙
Desperation rock will never die.
How about The real singer Lou Gramm????
Wow how many ways can u Ruin Foreigner songs
Obviously 4
Kelly Clarkson looks better as she ages.
Looking gorgeous
Wow Kelly lost a lot of weight. Lookin good
The Rap and Shit hall of fame now. Someone should start a real rock n roll hall of fame for the few great rockers left. Music just sucks now!
Glad I was born in the 60’s.

Yes, she turned this great anthem into a screaming contest,....she is still a good singer, though.
Demi laid an egg. Kelly is unrecognizable. Ozempic is a miracle drug.
This woman sings disastrously.One is worse than the other.🤣🤣🤣
So they had the original singer and only used him for a few min…
😔 yep, hideous, that hall of fame is a joke. Let’s have a chronic drug and alcohol addict like Levato on stage instead 🙄
I couldn’t understand that either. Why did they need other musicians to play when the original singer was there. 🤦🏻♀️
I’m guessing his voice just can’t do it anymore??
@@PC33CC bull crap!!!! I saw him last year on Bret Michaels Parti gras tour. Lou sang perfectly fine
@@PC33CCI saw Lou last month, he was excellent. He did "Feels like the first time" in the original key, like a pro, obviously they couldn't find another singer in the whole country who could do this song justice. It just makes you sad,....
Could have found someone better then demi how about pink she could have rocked that way better

Demi here and jelly roll on ozzy what a disaster.
Not Even born when they were irrelevant. Why the f are they even singing?
This is a travesty. They weren't even born when these bands were irrelevant. Why are they singing? Absolutely horrible. Could have found somebody much better
Rochester, New York's own Lou Gramm is Foreigners only lead Singer not these other people
Lou sounded good, but probably couldn't sing these songs all on his own. It sounded like he was struggling slightly so I'm sure he was happy to have a helping hand.
Sounds like they practiced this like NEVER 🎉
I think Demi did great on this song.
Clarkson is ok on this, at least they had Lou sing a tiny bit, but with Lovato, who I don't have a problem with generally as a singer, she murdered FLTFT. What a huge disappointment, but to be expected for these tribute performances.
Demi Lavato? WTF rock hall!!! 😅
That girl is not singing rock. Who thought this was a good idea?
It's that dumb gospel singing sh*t everyone loves and thinks is great now
I think that the attempts to cover Lou just confirmed what a great singer Lou Gramm was in his prime. It wasn't just the power - it was the soul that he injected.
Congrats to the band! Long overdue and too bad that Mick and Dennis couldn't attend.
Screw Mick . He shouldn’t have been there and finally Lou got his payback chance for karma to do its job . Shine on Lou ❤️
@MsRocker961 Totally agree and Mick Jones really screwed Lou out of a Grammy with I want to know love is.
Mick Jones coproduced van halens 5150 album. Sammy makes sense.
Bummer
THEY WAIT UNTIL ALL THE BANDS ARE SO OLD AND DECREPIT AND THEY CANT PERFORM ANYMORE.. ENJOY YOUR TRIBUTE BANDS. WHAT A JOKE
For sure - while their young huh 🤡🔥
Wow.. that was pretty rough.. not even close
What happened did your battery die?

cry about it
He would if he could trust me... you obviously don't get it. He can't sing all that...and I'm sure had to prepare like he'll to do whay he did do.
Do you have anything else to whine about?

Harry Stles wasn’t available foe Feels like the fist time
Joder! Slash...otra vez!!! Sera que no existe mas guitarristas en la musica Rock?
WTF is this? No Lou, no Mick?
Lou was singing
Lou was on half a song because that's about all he can handle anymore and Mick has such bad Parkinsons he can't perform anymore.
Kelly and Luis Maldonado are fantastic!
One of the greatest rock bands ever and we get two lightweights performing their songs. As much as I'm sick of Sammy, I would have rather him sing instead.
The HOF has been losing credibility from the beginning but now it's a total joke.
Sammy should of sang them all
You meant "should have sung them all". But you're a misogynist anyway.
Hello no!
What does this chick have to with foreigner?
Dude, where's the rest of it?
Ditch the entitled attitude.
OMG pure slaughter of these tunes! Should have had Lou and Kelly hammer them out
Sammy was 💯 the real singer is coming out....Kelly Clarkson
Demi can barely sing. They should have gotten Cindy Lauper
Lolol
You know you are right!! Lol
Of course she can sing. Stop letting your prejudice cloud your judgment. (And don't call me "simp" - it's unoriginal and babyish.🤣)
@@BlueBlazer47 She butchered the song and her timing was waaay off. She was a horrible choice.
This is the reality of this “ Hall of fame” inducting people 10 years after their prime. Bad tribute performances. This should have been done years ago when most of the Original members were able to do it.
Sorry Demi Lovato , Not the right singer to do this song. Hagar wasn't much better. You can't go wrong with Kelly. No one compares to Lou.
I went to Lou Gramm concert 3 months ago and he was very good. RR hall planned this for hype and other people playing was very disappointing to me from being a Foreigner fan. Ridiculous and glad I didn’t waste the $ and drive there.
That sounds like a soulless karaoke Demi Lovato. Impressed with the old man Sammy Hagar Kelly Clarkson❤
Has she ever heard this song before? Doesn’t sound like it. Travesty.. Lou could have sung this Acapella.
Kelly❤❤❤
Where’s mick jones
Hey, I didn’t know Will Ferrell played drums?
Oldest joke of all time boomer
Kelly Clarkson🔥🔥
Which one, Hansen or Clarkson?
@@ryanemmett6464 Clarkson 🔥 Hansen Crushes 🔥
If it was not for Kelly Clarkston this would be so great. she just sucks
So does your grammar.
That's crazy talk
What? 1st. a girl then Kelly Clarkson! NO Doesn't cut it.🤯
Thanks for the video, but you are really bad as a cameraman hahahahahaha.
Blame mick and his step son mark dickhead he produces these artist Lou still sings well wtf He wrote part of these songs and this is what we get go see Lou on tour 2024 and 2025
Slash is very overated.
Why are'nt they singing their own songs ? This is trash
Crap 💩 ruined the song 🎵 thankfully sammy saved the day
Ach, you're an incel.
Why is slash there... get rid of him and put mick sweda up there. He's far more superior in playing guitar... mick is the deal!
As if Foriegner had a lasting impact on rock music.
Terible
Demi though?? Why? I don't see it. She ruined it and she's not even a good singer.
Foreinoke
At least bring Kelly Hanson to sing.
Demi is awful.
He was, with Sammy.
Love love love Lou Gramm
