The singer's ability to keep the songs vocally familiar is a great thing. Any band that looses a high caliber singer should make a enormous effort to find someone who sounds as much like the original as possible. Mission accomplished here !!
Yea, it’s a shame Lou Gramm can’t see that. Criticizes Kelly for sounding & copying some of his moves; which is really what the fans want. Lou was a great singer too! He just needs to give Kelly a lot more credit & the respect that he deserves like Kelly does to him.
@@constance4065 You got it wrong. A lot of Hansen fans know nothing about the original Foreigner and though Hansen is a good singer , he really sounds nothing like Lou Gramm. Gramms first replacement in Foreigner was Johnny Edwards for Foreigners 1991 album UNUSUAL HEAT. Fans didn't accept Edwards and said he didn't sound like Gramm. I disagreed with those fans because Edwards vocally sounded more like Gramm than Kelly Hansen ever did, and Edwards was rejected because "He wasn't Lou Gramm" . Edwards was chosen over Kelly Hansen and Mark Free (King Kobra) in 1990 when Lou quit the first time to go solo. Edwards, Hansen and Mark Free were all HEAVY METAL singers. Gramm is basically a rock singer, period.
Lou Gramm was always great but unfortunately the brain tumor and surgery messed him up bad. Mick had no choice but to move on with Kelly Hansen. Live Band sounds great here. Glad Mick expanded back to a 6 piece to do these songs justice live.
Losing the singer often means loosing the voice and the face of a band. With Kelly Hansen Mick Jones really made the best choice he ever could do....all thumbs up!
I was wrong, it’s off the 16” floor tom with right hand. Didn’t have my glasses on and hearing aid in! Ha! Awesome drummer. Kicks the band in Overdrive!
He aint lou cause hes just singing his songs but kellys the next best thing the best question is this how the world is this band not in the rock n roll hall of fame For 11yrs 76 to87 they had hit after hit off every lp and elvis costello and joe jackson are in the hall of fame wtf did they do how many top10 hits do theyhave! . Joan jett sold 20million records. I love rock nroll and guess what she didnt even sing it .the arrows song it first and she copied it like everything she does its a joke so grt foreigner in there!
Absolutely Amazing Version of Dirty White Boy!!! I saw Foreigner in "Mountain Air 85". They Played "Hot Blooded", they everything else was from the New album... so nothing else from Foreigner 1-4. I was Horribly disappointed... Some New Band by the name of "Night Ranger" opened for them.. and they sounded Great!. Foreigner was my favorite band back then. This Version of Dirty White Boy is Spot On with the Album. Thanks for the Memories! Foreigner is still one of my favorites!. Sluggo
Mind blowing, flawless performance.!!! Incredibly talented line up of the new Foreigner fronted by original founder, Mick Jones. Lou was a legend, but Kelly has what it takes. He must be of the best rock vocalists on the planet. The drummer also phenomenal..
Mick Jones guitar has something that really gets you out of your seat.....Foreigner's lineup of musicians has always been spectacular but if Mick Jones isn't playing with them it just don't sound the same.....He has that Jimmy Page presence.....
E não é que ele consegue mesmo fazer um tempo diferente para cada música, de ficar encantada com sua verdade estrategica em cada interpretação, incrível e admirável.
Really Great Rendition of Their love Classic ! Guitar Lick's are Spot On ✓ 💯 Drummer is Super Crisp Sounding Fabulous !!! Thank You Foreigner' ... You Guy's Rock 💥 💨💨💨 Excellence Defined 3:52 ✓ 🇺🇸 ♦️ 🎲 🎲 Roll em. ✔️😸
@@VisionProStudiosNope, Mick Jones was the ONLY original member on that clip. Even Jones is nowhere to be seen in the last few years. They've performed with ZERO original members. Also it's Lou Gramm not Lou "Graham".
But they produce no new good music with these great singers. They can sing the old songs well but don't generate new stuff. Kelly rocks it, but it's Lou's stuff he's singing.
@@ratso1963mikel Kelly and Mick Jones cowrote 10 of the 13 song's on Can't Slow Down it's my favorite Foreigner CD 💕 They do some of the songs from it at some of their concerts. I have DVD's that they sing some of them on. Have a good day and Merry Christmas.🎄🎄🎄🎄
Forever strained and worship God. Wasp at its best right here. A different spin on their songs but definitely the best of what they have. God be praised! Song is spot on! Well done Blackie! Do more…..
awesome recording. this was shot in the Ryman Auditorium. And to the people complaining about the audience, if the crowd were bouncing around like a bunch of teenagers, the balcony would have collapsed. This place is 125 yrs old man. Plus, this is Nashville, we don't get too excited about anything.
Wow, what a powerful re-formation of this band!!! I love it that Jeff Pilson from Dokken is here on bass, and Kelly as lead vocalist was a VERY smart choice! I really want to see them live next time they come around. This is awesome!
There's absolutely nothing wrong with appreciating what all of these superb newer members of Foreigner bring to the table. When Mick leaves though, Foreigner needs to officially be done.
Mick Jones always lays out crispy & catchy rhythms and solos on his playing. He doesn't do all those blistering solos just like another hard rock guitarists, but something that fits with the soul of the song. And it really fits well.
6 months after posting last comment still love this. They're all fantastic players that nailed with the best production I've ever heard. KH is a bona fide awesome rock singer.
@Range Man His voice sounds nothing like Lou's voice. His voice is a deeper voice. Please don't misunderstand, he sounds great and nails the notes. He does NOT sound like Lou though
Going to see the band April 18th 2019 in Tulsa, Okla, hope they are this good. 75 and still rocking. Love this group, Kelly and the drummer are freakin knockout and the bass rips great. Rock on Mick.
I love this video ❤️ I love Kelly's singing he is great. Love everything he does. So glad he found love. He got married in May 2020 His wife's name is Anna. I wish every happiness to them. Stay safe everyone and have a Merry Christmas ❤️💕🎄🎄🎄
Отлично снято, отличный звук, отличные парни, спасибо огромное автору за такой подарок! Excellent shot, great sound, great guys, thanks to the great author for such a gift!
lloret de mar tichy has absolutely great feel for a song and how to play with it. Not the best soloist but who cares you would choose him in your band in front of just about all of them.
Man this line up is insane ! Jeff Pilson laying it down on bass ! Listen to that thunder low end groove . The drummer !! Damn this dude is killing it ! Who is that playing the kit? I can’t get over how bad ass they ALL sound ! Mick and Kelly are so so good !
It’s just doesn’t get any better then this ! Gibson guitars , Marshall amps , 5 old school rock and rollers just laying it down ! Freakin love this so much ! Can you name the bass player and drummer?? Listen to that groove and micks guitar ! Yea baby
Just saw them Friday night in Atlantic City, Hard Rock Cafe.. Concert was a 10 out of 10… Entire band was crisp and “spot on”!!! Kelly Hansen has not only a top notch voice but he was entertaining as hell: Great sense of humor, fantastic story-teller that really engaged the audience with charm and personality!!! Took the majority audience of 50 and 60-somes down a much needed nostalgic Memory Lane!!! Thank you Foreigner and the Staff at Hard Rock Cafe for an incredible concert event!!!!
Seen Foreigner 3 times in the past 10 years. The show is perfect every time! They bring the best energy and showmanship to every show! Go see em if you have a chance. No way you will be disappointed.
I have listened to this video at least fifty or sixty times and never get tired of it. Beautifully in tune and an intense drive. Now I am going to listen again.
I know I know all the Lou Graham loyalist will hate me but the lead singer kicks ass ! Vocal and just overall stage presence and audience engagement! We saw this line up a few years ago and he / they killed it all night!
Saw them at the white river amphitheater a few years ago with Kid Rock. Did not expect the lead singer to bring me back to the late 70’s-80’s. Awesome show
Mark Walling • Absolutely. Mick did a great job in finding Kelly. Kelly sings as close to Lou as you could possibly get. Great Voice. Kelly sings the songs like they're supposed to be sang he never butchers them. A lot of the haters say this is just a a tribute band. Well it's the Best tribute band I've ever heard.
Hell yeah!!! Takes me back!!! To The Great Era!!!! Awesome Rock n Roll!!! I'm 69 still Rock n Roll!!!!!
Wow…the Singer is REALLY good!!!
Like it or not, Kelly can f-ing SANG!
The singer's ability to keep the songs vocally familiar is a great thing.
Any band that looses a high caliber singer should make a enormous effort to find someone who sounds as much like the original as possible.

This band sounds better than ever, that drummer kicks ass
I know. FOUR floor toms.
it's Brian Tichy. He's a beast
Kelly Hansen is a FANTASTIC singer!!!!!! And the drummer is Killing it!
Related to Hanny?
OH YEA!
Wow! That drummer flippiing his stick and catching it in the end! Spot on ending!
Good Gawd!!! the drummer SLAYED IT!
Always been a big fan of Lou Gramm, but what this Mr. Kelly Hansen is doing here live is super. I'm officially very impressed :-)
A Big fan of 70’s Foreigner, and I admit Kelly Hansen kills it, great voice!
Tom Holder nor should he. They’re two different artists.
Lou Gramm was always great but unfortunately the brain tumor and surgery messed him up bad. Mick had no choice but to move on with Kelly Hansen. Live Band sounds great here. Glad Mick expanded back to a 6 piece to do these songs justice live.
Look up Kelly Hansen when he was in the band Hurricane. Stand out songs “Messin with a Hurricane” and I”m on to You.”
@@tomholder2793 How's that?
These Artists 'S*H*I*N*E Bright!!!!!! LOve you Mick!!!! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🎇🎇🎆🎆🎇🎇🎆🎆🎇🎇🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🌠🎑
All of you haters who dislike the singer. Bite me. He's doing yeoman's work. Go foreignor.
Mark Hagen nothin wrong with him he Rocks
He's fantastic!!!
I met him in Pasadena at a Thunherstruck show. He going out with the singer I think. We talked for awhile he was soooo cool. good guy
lol lol lol
great singer!. people are just stuck in the past if you know what i mean.
Losing the singer often means loosing the voice and the face of a band. With Kelly Hansen Mick Jones really made the best choice he ever could do....all thumbs up!
Agreed 100%!
Being a drummer I noticed the stick to the snare and the catch at the end...f’n rock and roll! Thank you! Owwww! He nailed it!
I was wrong, it’s off the 16” floor tom with right hand. Didn’t have my glasses on and hearing aid in! Ha! Awesome drummer. Kicks the band in Overdrive!
BRIAN TICHY on drums is amazing in every bands he plays with
Brian is better drummer than Jason is.
Deborah Edwards Jason is boring TBH
He nailed it, the dude sounds like a Tommy Lee and Tommy Aldridge mojo.
He was my skype teacher...yep..he's even a great guitar player
Kelly Hansen is seriously a badass Vocalist!! Tichy a Great drummer. Pilson is a great bassist and Mick...well, he is just badass as ever
They're all hired hands for dictator Mick Jones
I heard that Tichy is the new drummer for Vandenberg.
He aint lou cause hes just singing his songs but kellys the next best thing the best question is this how the world is this band not in the rock n roll hall of fame
For 11yrs 76 to87 they had hit after hit off every lp and elvis costello and joe jackson are in the hall of fame wtf did they do how many top10 hits do theyhave! . Joan jett sold 20million records.

@rickjeffjeff It DOES matter. Go out and pay for something with counterfeit money . Won't go too well for you.
Saw these guys in Vegas last year... Kelly Hansen is the real deal for lead singer and the band is better then ever... 80s rock is alive and well...
But they produce no new good music with these great singers. They can sing the old songs well but don't generate new stuff. Kelly rocks it, but it's Lou's stuff he's singing.

dig it. mick jones 70 years old and still jammin strong.
BRET KINDELL • Actually Mick was 65 in this show. Even today at 72 he's still a Great Guitar Player.
Real rock and roll at its finest
Mick is top notch . Very classy guitarist. He will be rocking when he’s 90. Lol
unfortunatly Mick went from a rocker to a walker as he has parkinsons.

Mick is an ass hat. Lou was really the key member of the band.
YES, MR.HANSEN...... You got the pipes !!!!!
What a GREAT!!!!!! Band🎧🎤🎤🎤🎤🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎸🎹🥁🎤🎤🎤🥁🥁🥁🎸🎸🎸🎹🎹🎹🎼🎼🎼🎼Love you Kelly🎤🎤🎤😘
Saw them last year in London ..bloody brilliant .. forgot how many great songs they had ..the atmosphere & crowd were amazing ..
Surprising how calm the audience was during the performance, considering they ROCKED The House Down, Bravo!!!
Mick Jones always lays out crispy & catchy rhythms and solos on his playing. He doesn't do all those blistering solos just like another hard rock guitarists, but something that fits with the soul of the song. And it really fits well.
No blistering needed, he has tone, technique and killer riffs he builds upon to generate real sound beyond shred.
I really like the drummer. He plays with joy and power. No overplaying. Just very devoted to the song. Super musical.
This could be a training film for every rocker and how to really kick butt with performance!
The drummer is phenomenal!!

Yes Yes Yes!! They are awesome!
i was there, best dam drummer ever!
Yeah ,drummer is definitely on fire
this drummer is the best thing about this band
Mick is the Mick
Great job mick on that guitar love it
Wow, u replace original singers but it's never the same. But this guy is beyond incredible. what a talent.
The singer is incredible. I don’t know who he is so I’m sure he’s not the original singer he looks a little bit like Steven Tyler. LOL
@@zmaninpgh His name is Kelly Hansen, he joined Foreigner in 2005
@Range Man His voice sounds nothing like Lou's voice. His voice is a deeper voice.
Please don't misunderstand, he sounds great and nails the notes. He does NOT sound like Lou though
@@1badsteed You are right he sounds more powerful than Gramm EVER did !
@Range Man no way this is real rock n roll
👏👏👏👏💪💪💪🥰QUE BANDA 🎸🎸 FOREIGNER 👍
Dirty Old Rockers for a lifetime!
Love the drumstick flipncatch!!!Had2have been a gr8 show!
Dude sings great. I think Lou Gramm is the ultimate front man, but this guy is very very good. Nice, powerful Rock Front Man voice. Well done.
One of the greatest rock bands of all times!!!!!!!

teenager dont appreciate this true rock of the 70s and 80s
billy the kid **laughing in being introduced to classic rock through GTA 5 and loving it ever since**
Foreigner found the market before and after they found it again as easy and hard as they earned it. Much respect.
Mick the mick. Historic.
Kick ass tune
