- Vocal Coach Reaction To Lou Gramm - Foreigner - I Want To Know What Love Is - Live - Ken Tamplin
Lou Gramm is one of my FAVORITE singers of all time so I'm very excited to be doing a reaction today to Foreigner.
They are one of the world's best-selling bands of all time with worldwide sales of more than 80 million records, including 37.5 million records in the US.
The name of the band came from the fact that half the members were from England and half from the US so they all could call themselves foreigners.
Band members Mick Jones and Gramm wrote most of their songs together. They had a very fruitful songwriting partnership, with each bringing a range of musical influences to their compositions.
In 2013, they were inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, where they performed together for the first time since 2003.
Foreigner has dissolved and re-formed several times over the years. Mick Jones is the only original member of the band who has remained with the group since the beginning.
I'll be reacting to "I Want To Know What Love Is" along with "Hot Blooded". "I Want To Know What Love Is" was the band's most successful tune. It hit number one in both the United Kingdom and the United States. It is listed as one of Rolling Stone Magazine's greatest songs of all time at number 479.
Get ready for an epic performance with no tracks, no auto-tune, just a RAW display by one of the all-time GREATS!

Lou Gramm put's all he has in a song any song that's why I love his singing.
Lou Gramm is a Vocal legend, his technique, power and range are second to none
I loved LouGramm but technically speaking there are some better screamers: ChrisOusey is a monster, MickDevine (SEVEN), SteveOverland, ..
I agree
This is music. Lou Gramm is a vocal legend.
He certainly is, Brian!
It's not just Lou's technique, it's his attitude and soul that gives him that edge.
Lou Gramm sings with Feeling,he brings tears to my eyes, everytime.. He's just got it!!!
BONNIE BELL - Got it!!! Yes he does, in spades!
Lou’s voice is so powerful and distinctive. Never tire of listening to his music.
This song is so perfect, it makes me cry everytime, I saw Lou Gramm in Caracas 2009 after his brain surgery and some ladies in the audience said before Lou Gramm went on stage they said what happen with Lou why he is not signing yet! what Happen, will he come in a wheelchair? And I will never forget that moment when Lou Gramm came out and sang perfectly leaving everyone impressed closing the mouth of those who did not believe in him.
Live Shows Lou is one of the best!
Lou is a vocal legend!!
I agree!
Lou Gramm and Steve Perry Best vocalists of all time!!!!
Steve Perry is superior, indeed.
Brad Delp. Mickey Thomas?
Brad Delp too
Sebastian Bach before he ruined his voice
@@CMissShelleyMichelle yes indeed, you must add brad delp in that list as well.
The incomparable Lou Gramm! He is just so amazing. His voice was so beyond great. I love Foreigner as well but only with Lou Gramm singing. It was really sad and unfortunate what happened to him with his health but he’s still singing today. He’s a really humble guy too. Thanks for doing this video!
Always a big fan of Lou Gramm. Raw and powerful voice like no other.
Singing this live has to be a beast. He slayed it
He has a very full warm tone to his voice and he can add Crystal Clear rasp if you will, to his voice when he needs it without struggle.
Thank you!
when i was 12, my dad stuck a foreigner greatest hits cassette tape as a stocking stuffer for christmas. at first, i was like "what is this crap?"
that tape became my favorite gift for that year. i became an instant foreigner fan and played that tape until it fell apart.
4:35 yeah, this is how i look listening to that song.
That's awesome, Androth!
Love Lou Gramm, my favorite rock vocalist ever and so glad he’s one of your favorites as well!!❤️
This song is awesome Lou Gramm is great live great band one of my favorites
We Miss You Lou Gramm😥
Excellent..Lou graham is the shit and a exceptionally nice human being!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
No one man in this all world has a voice like lou. Just no one!!
👍
Such a man with spirit, he went through hard times and still manage to stand up for himself. Respect to Mr Lou gramm
😊
The soul in Lou's voice brings me to tears. I have listened to EVERY version of this song on You tube. This and Waiting for a girl like you. NO ONE does it like Lou!
I love Lou. One of my favorites!
One of the greatest singers of all time that flew under the radar. As a singer, Lou does not get the recognition he deserves. I'm surprised how many people don't know him by name. I mention Lou and I get "huh?" Then I mention Foreigner and they go, "Oh yeah, that guy." Thank you for recognizing his incredible talent.
Hi Ken. Always appreciate your great lessons so much. I'm a 50-year-old South Korean and and there have been 3 songs that brought tears to my eyes when I was a teenager who still didn't understand English well. 1. Against All Odds 2. Total Eclipse of the Heart 3. I Want to Know What Love Is. Having been a high school English teacher for 22 years, now I know what those songs are about and that gives me even bigger movement.
Wonderful! Thanks for the visit. Rock on!
This song is so beautiful, and his voice is incredible live ❤
Being a singer makes one appreciate his ability to the max!
I love this song. In the original video he had the choir too. Wow. Just. Wow. Feels like I'm back in 1984 all over again. 👍❤️👍
😊
I love Lou in this video. His voice is amazing, as always! This shows you don’t have to be perfect to be good. He wasn’t perfect. But he was absolutely amazing!
Absolutely!
Isn't it wonderful to see audiences listening to a ballad, experiencing a concert, without sticking a cell phone camera in front of their faces. Those days are gone forever.
Raul Tennis- Sad but true...
Love Lou Gramm. Black Sheep was great, Foreigner was great, Shadow King was great, and his own personal CDs are great. Got to give him credit for still going out there and doing concerts. Spectacular, expressive singer in his prime, fantastic song writer. So thankful for Lou Gramm.
Foreigner, Journey, and Eagles are legendary! Rock on! No band beats the Eagles singing live on stage.
Rock on!
My dad was telling me that his first record he ever got was Foreigner and this song was on there.
I've seen recent videos of Lou with Foreigner and it's amazing at 70 how well he can still sing after that life changing brain tumor. Thank God he made it.
Makes me appreciate artists who can sing live
Absolutely, HAguayo!
To move people with your voice must feel so amazing what a beautiful voice and the whole band sounds incredible :-)
You ll be glad to know that Gramm s voice is restored a lot as he sings a track in the new Alan Parsons album
That's great, renovatio renovatio!
Lou Gramm and John Farnham are my all time favourite singers.
😀
its very hard to replicate that vocal performance live..such a stunning song.
Indeed!
Lou gramm, has a powerful and unique voice that's impossible to replicate.
Best. Band of my Growing up....nice. WE GREW UP IN THE BEST MUSIC ERA NO DOUBT!,,,,
Zukilover305 - No doubt!!
One of the best singer of all times.
Aww… baby Ken! 😂 Don’t know how I missed this one. Lou is the bomb, and I Want to Know What Love Is is an absolutely phenomenal song. It’s just so GOOD!
I could listen to Ken react to Lou Gramm, Steve Perry,Brad Delp,Dennis De Young and Steve Walsh for the rest of my life! Thank you Ken
Thanks for the compliment, David!
Absolutely Steve Walsh is incredible!
Summer of '81, 10 years old, laying in my back yard with the neighbor kids waiting for Juke Box Hero to come on the radio so I could hit record on the cassette player...Foreigner started my love for rock music. That Was Yesterday is in my top 5 of all time.
Yes, I did the same thing, Trisha! Wore out many a cassette tape!
I agree with you Ken T. Foreigner is one of my favorite bands of all time. Lou Gramm delivered BIGTIME. Especially in the studio because the songs are everlasting. Just incredible deliver. Powerful frontman and voice. Bigtime musicians backing Lou. Tons of classic hits. There is a version of "Starrider" on youtube that is incredible. With Lou. You know which one I am talking about. Late 70's/early 80's where the band just kills it. I would love to hear your take on it. I know you listen to the comments. God Bless man. You are a true leader and teacher for so much positive we have have coming in the near future. Rock and Roll never dies. Comeback and revival is coming!
I would love to add a thing here Ken if you are listening. Keeping it short. Unsung heroes of mine when I picked up my instrument. While in my home state,, Southern Maine/ Portland, Maine,, "Pete, from "Twisted Roots" and while in New Orleans for 7 years (1997 - 2004) ,,James Hall (pleasure Club)... Great bands with great frontmen... The digital age may have put a cork on many great talents out there. Perhaps to a cast where you showcase some artists that not many have heard of before? I love your channel and I am loving going back listening to lots I have missed throughout the times we are living in.
Thanks so much! Love Lou!
Foreigner...way under appreciated compared to other rock groups of the era.
Been a Lou Gramm/ Foreigner fan since i was 8 (1977).My first concert was the 4 tour w/ the Scorpions as the opener and Loverboy the special guest. Lou is AWESOME live. If you get a chane to see them go.
That's awesome, Eddy!
I absolutely love Lou Gramm and Foreigner too (almost?) as much as you do! I wore out their 8-track tapes when I was a teen in the 70's, and I still rock out singing along with their CD's as a sassy senior! Great reaction vid!
One of my Foreigner favorites Ken! Beautiful song done under stressed concert conditions and Grahm delivers the intensity of the desire within the lyrics.This is the real passion of the human heart crying out.Thanks so much Ken.
Love seeing you and him in the thumbnail, Ken.
Beautiful dissection of one of the all time greatest rock vocalists to grace this planet.
The first cassette I bought was Foreigner 4, the summer between 4th and 5th grade - 1987. I played along to that tape on my drums daily that summer.
Thank you!
Lou just got better and better as he performed "I Want to Know What Love is." You are a fan of music, Ken Tamplin and I love it.
I am, Ernie!
Lou gramm has a perfect voice..
Rocky,a little bit metally,gentle,
A little bit soft i must say..no.1
Such a HUGE, great song from the 80's! I remember this one when I was in High School! I feel so incredibly fortunate to have been a kid in the 70's and a teenager in the 80's! What a time to grow up! FM radio was on fire back then!!
Ken your passion for the music you watch is great to see! 😊🎶💕Makes me smile! ☺️
I'm happy to hear that, Snuggles N!
Ah Ken...Lou Graham .....one of the best...miss him in the lime light sooo much.....Thanks for doing this..another great Kenny Reaction an breakdown!!!
Lou Gram not only has skill but there's that magic unique tone in his voice that make him identifiable. Though I can never shake the image of Les Nessman putting on a wig when I hear Hot Blooded ;)
Love that episode of WKRP!
YOU KNOW KEN,prior to 1995 his voice never let him down,even when he was exhausted,his voice never wavered,he is the king of the mic,as far as I'm concerned,he's it,i bought a set of headphones just for his sound,and you are not far from him,i've heard you sing,you hit a lot of notes and hold them,just like the KING OF THE MIC
Lou was the king! 👑
Lou is a true rock singer as good as he is at ballads he preferred the rock songs like this one, I love listening to his old band black sheep and just imagine what they could have achieved had that worked out
Ken seems like the type of guy you could just hang out with and listen to some awesome stories and jam out to some classic tunes.
Awesome reaction video Ken!!🖒 Great songs !!!!🖒 Foreigner is Awesome!!🖒☺
Amazing band and amazing singer!! Nothing less than greatness!!!
Your enthusiasm is so contagious 😊 I love listening to these reaction videos … mine is all in for foreigner or Lou Gramm…couldn’t wipe the smile on my face love it keep them coming Ken !
This song would never get old he had such a unique sound a very rare one ...
Oooooo!!! That tone, that song ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My favorite song of all time by Foreigner. Thanks Ken! ✌️🤙
Only Lou Gramm is Foreigner for ever
Your enthusiasm for singing is inspiring! Foreigner and journey are my two favorite classic rock bands. Well me and most everyone else 😂 for good reason!
He looks exhausted, like struggling with the song, but his voice is still extraordinary.
happens to most vocalists at end of of show/career, or if out of shape/out of practice
Its not so much that theyre out of shape, you have to realise how hot it is on stage. You've got 30c+ degree heat beating down on you PLUS stage lights... then have to exert yourself like he is on this, anyone would be sweating their balls off.
Still a good performance. He has other performances that are outstanding.
I think he sang this song after singing Urgent
Thanks for your reaction video, Ken! Only Lou Gramm (in the 1990s) is better than Lou Gramm here. I love this live performance so much. A delight to watch and listen to Lou. He clearly puts all his heart and soul into his golden voice. Outstanding vocalist and genuine performer without any ego rock star attitudes. He only needs a mic and a song, ANY song, and the magic begins. I followed his versatile voice whereever I could, finding so much great music and joy: Foreigner, his solo stuff, Shadow King, and recently Black Sheep, his collaborations with other artists, his tribute to John Lennon and Aretha Franklin, his amazing cover versions of Led Zeppelin's "Black Dog", "Heartbreaker", "Stairway to Heaven"...
But it was his backing vocals on Bryan Adams' "Let him know" from the "Cuts like a knife" album that caught my attention in the first place many many years ago. Without knowing or recognizing Lou back then, I always thought, OMG, THAT VOICE, AMAZING. So, thanks to Bryan Adams for introducing me to the best rock vocalist of all times (imho). 😊
When I was a child I listened this song with my mother and even though I did not understand the language so well, I already liked it cos he sings with so much feeling that I could understand a lot...haha
Saw Lou Gramm with foreigner in the Wisconsin state fair ( Milwaukee
) . Late 1970’s. Loved that.
Lou is here in my hometown!! Some of my friends toured with him and did his last show!! He’s a great guy and for his age can still do it!!
That's awesome, Dawn!
Spectacular! Thanks Ken. I'm seeing Foreigner next week, I wish he would be there.
On of the greatest songs ever. Not his best performance ,but still world class. So basicly great, haha
Thank you for sharing this. Love Lou a great singer and great human being
I'm glad you liked it, Janine!
I absolutely agree with you Ken...Lou is just a Naturally gifted singer and his feeling and tone is second to none...I Love Foreigner and still do...Kelly Hanson is Great, but it's Lou for me for raw talent and feeling...Thanks Ken...Love your voice as well by the way :)
I could 😢 cry hearing his singing voice very inviting.....seeing that love in his song........
Thanks for watching!
Awesome reaction Ken. Lou is one of my faves. Excellent singer. He has an awesome tone on the low end but can go up the scale without loosing that tone. a lot of times with singers that happens in the upper register. It becomes tinny. Enjoyed this reaction brother.
Enjoy your enthusiasm Ken 😄. I don't even sing. Just like listening.
I sing! No one wants to hear it, but I do it anyway 😀
@@Serf_dom - Keep singing!
YES! You did one on Lou Gramm! MY favorite singer of all time! Thank you👊🤘GOD THAT VOICE! he really was just the best (in my opinion) and this song.....SO MUCH HEART AND POWER! One of my 5 fav songs ever!
Fyi....9:40 in almost mDe me cry when Lou goes upper register....just PERFECTION! Foreigner does NOT get the respect they deserve!
Theron Hayden Lou is one of the greats!
Heck yeah!!!...Lou Gramm is one of my favorite singers...love his voice 🔥🔥❤❤
You and me, both!
The hardest working man in rock n roll!! Awesome... and damn good looking too!! 🤘❤️
Thanks for listening.
Happy Independence Day!
🇺🇸🧨🎇
Awesome as always Ken! Thanks for sharing! Keep rocking man!
The interesting thing I take away from him being out of breath at the beginning, it really adds to the visual on my end as a spectator. Something about that obvious short of breathless just adds to the mood and feeling of the song. Wanting to “know what love is” and he’s giving it 110% although he’s already a bit worn. Just totally feeds to emotion of the song to me. Fantastic video and reaction, Ken!
Ken. I love your ramblings! It's really cool to hear your stories. Keep them coming.
Love this performance Ken especially how live and raw it is, so much emotion and humanity in it.
I love Lous ad libs just perfect

@@ciaobellamiamore Do you mean Larry Graham?
@@kentamplin ooops YES I DID.
IM AN OLD DUMMY😜SORRY
Wow Ken, you did something more important than make music, you helped make someone else's life important. Kudos !
Rock on!
So fun watching Ken’s exuberance! That’s just how I feel when I’m loving a tune......”where did the music go”? He says at the end.......good question. I think it got trapped inside an app....
Could listen to Lou Gramm all day I love his early stuff like heartache that’s my favourite along side I want to know what love is and come on ken you’ve been teasing us far to long we want to hear your cover of living on a prayer ! Lol I’m buzzing for it
...soulfull & so much feeling poured into the song, ...#LouGrammBrand... ff foreignerforeverwithLG...
Love Lou! Great stuff!
I said this in another video .. I didn’t appreciate good vocals when these guys were on top .. but man now I’m wide awake ... awesome
They're great!
Wow great !!
I’ve ALWAYS loved this one! Love Foreigner too. Great choices always
Spectacular song!!! When you have it, you just have it! I too, love Lou Gramm. I also loved Kelly Hansen’s version of this song with the accompanying video with the Shriners kids - made me cry!
Some of the parts are brutal for the original, but yet it's so dang great still. Gives such a special feeling to it. This is one of those songs when you are so exhausted and sing this you can choke on it so hard. This is just so real. Wonderful.
Lou Gramm just put it all out there man!!!
It only took me 43 years to learn that the difference between those that became SUCCESSFUL, and those who didn't, was their ability to HOLD ON and PERSIST in the face of less than desireable, often bleak, circumstances and/or environments. Just. Hold. On.
I opened up for " LOU" back in the 90's when he went solo , at the marquee!
Ken, new subscriber and found your video about Lou Gramm very interesting. It was great to see and hear Lou Gramm sing. As others have wrote and I agree that he and Steve Perry have to be the pinnacle of frontmen. Great tone, range, and soul in those guys. It's a crime Foreigner aren't in the hall. So, tell me how do frontmen like Lou Gramm keep their voices in shape as they age? Some seem to age better than others, so how can a singer keep age from stealing their range? I'm a drummer so age isn't such a deal for me. But I know it is for vocalists.
😀
Thanx Ken, you are Fantastic...Exactly...his TONE..unbelievable Talent.
Many times I listen yo this ballad in the radio and almost drive me to tears, man
Lou did an amazing job on this song, Mateo!
