My Uncle was a member of the New Jersey Mass choir. And was a dynamic choir director at my church I used to attend in NJ. He was featured in this video. He was also the construction guy holding the beam. His face was also featured on your video when I clicked on it. Rest in peace to my late Uncle, Mr. Willie Pryor! 💙🕊
That's so cool! And I will forever remember his name since I come back to this vid a lot:) Also, I love fun facts. I raise my glass to Mr. William!- Becca
I've heard this song a million times and it still gives me goosebumps every single time. The vibe is love and peace and goodness. We need so much more of this!!
That's a romantic ballad. Story goes that in the beginning they don't wanted to perform it because isn't rock, but they finally did and become a huge hit. If you want to check their heavy rock hits there is some of them: Urgent. Juke Box hero. Hot Blooded. Cold as ice. Double vision.
Foreigner is one of the best bands ever; this was one of their “softer” songs 😊 Please react to “Urgent”, “Jukebox Hero”, and perhaps their best, (also soft) “Waiting For A Girl Like You”💎💎💎
I'm puttin this out to the community, maybe it's a small enough world... in 1984, (there's a reason for the description) my all White, middle class, white collar choir went to compete in NYC, we were in Battery Park and somebody in our group started singing this, we half heartedly chimed in. At this moment, an all Black choir arrived as well. There was a moment of tension as my group was from 45 mins outside of Detroit, and sadly a Black person was as new to us as a free roaming male lion. Then the miracle happened, someone in the Black group picked up the harmony and 2 ridiculously separated groups of people made magic that day as the 2 choirs sang this entire song in 5 part harmony. There were tears, hugs and we parted and I want so badly to thank whomever it was in the other choir who for a moment looked beyond color and remembered only the beauty of the music. I carry this memory with me every time i hear this song. Music really is the universal language 🧡🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
When I saw these guys in Huntsville AL they brought out the Alabama A&M choir and blew the joint up!!! First time I ever saw a concert and wound up being taken to church!! It was awesome!!
I watched a woman do a reaction to this video and song. During the whole time the video was showing she never once open her eyes to watch the video. I think the reason people love this song is because of the video that goes with it. Watch it again this time with your eyes open.
Lou Gramm was the lead vocalist before he quit. Mick Jones played keyboards in this song. Lou Gramm is a fan of 1950s to 1960s r + b and soul. This is an original. Controversy. Credit says, "written by Mick Jones", but Lou Gramm claims credit + demands royalties. This is similar to Danger Zone: credit says, "written by Georgio Moroder", but Kenny Loggins claims credit + demands royalties. Great singing! 👨🎤👩🎤👨🎤👩🎤 Covers. Mariah Carey covered this song. Morissette Amon covers Mariah. Suggested video: Morissette Amon sings I Wanna Know What Love Is in MYX. Morissette Amon is from the Philippines. 🇵🇭 Suggested next Foreigner video: Waiting for a Girl Like You. 🇬🇧🇺🇲
It’s a classic 1980’s pop ballad and the r&b you here is the New Jersey Mass Choir out of Newark NJ This song was a enormous billboard number one back in 1985
GREAT choice. Such an incredible song. Such an incredible band. True 70’s and 80’s legends. They have an extensive catalogue of incredible music. Hope you check out more. For example: Head Games, Urgent, Hot Blooded, Cold As Ice, and my personal favorite of theirs, Waiting For A Girl Like You, just to name a few. Their lead singer had one of the greatest voices ever, with some of the greatest rock songwriting ever. They simply don’t make music like this anymore. Soundtrack of my childhood too. Slow danced in 6th grade to this song at our school dance 😂 But the way the song builds and builds, then finally crescendoing with that gorgeous choir at the end, well, when they kick in and he goes full throttle with his vocals, I still get chills. And it actually makes me tear up a bit. Every single time. Even after all this time. Because this song is indeed, timeless.
We always joked that Foreigner was a virgin band group. This song, 'Feels Like the First Time', 'Waiting for a Girl Like You'. 😊 And they had other 'love' songs besides those.
My aunt remarried in 1985 and this was her wedding song.. I thought it was appropriate but damn Foreigner has a whole catalog you can react, to I see so many great suggestions!!
So listening to this song on the radio back in the day, we all thought it was about romantic love. But watching the video, you can see it was mainly about love between people -- black, white, etc. -- ALL people. And that's a very lovely sentiment.
Saw them in concert with Def Leppard! AMAZING concert night for sure!! Foreigner has been around since the 70's...great band!! Qhen they came to our city they had arranged and met with our local high school choir in Moline, Il and they sang the choir part. It was so frickin' cool when they came out on stage.
Foreigner was kind of groundbreaking at the time by bringing in a choir like that to sing the chorus in a predominantly white scene.... it was a moment in time of peace, respect, and brotherly love. Why can't we be like that everyday?? I remember watching this (on MTV) when I was super young when it first came out and tearing up because it was such a beautiful thing.
This is the song we played at my aunt's funeral. She was 6 months shy of her 30th birthday. She was addicted to cocaine and she didn't see a way out of the addiction. She had a 10 year old son. She loved this song.
I am so happy that you have found this song. It's been one of my favorites since it's release. There is so much meaning in this song. Not just on a one to one level. To me it encompasses love for ALL of mankind. That chorus still sends chills through me even today. Lou Graham's is phenomenal in my opinion. So much soul and feeling in this song. This is one of the few ballads Foreigner does. If want to hear a great song, listen to Juke Box Hero, Urgent, ,Cold As Ice, Double Vision,Hot Blooded. All favorites from this band, Blessings to you and your family
I saw a Swedish film in high school in '98 whose English title was "Show Me Love," (I won't repeat the Swedish title) after the Robyn song, and this song was featured prominently in that movie. Obviously at the time, there was only one reason for me to see it (Google it - after you watch my man's reaction here...I was 16 at the time) at that age, but having watched it again recently, I really appreciate both the movie and how well done it is and how realistic it is for teenagers of that era like myself, and how great the song is and how well placed it is in the movie. By the way, the movie was NOT what I expected and while I was disappointed at the time as a teenage guy, I'm glad I sat through it now as an adult. It made me emotional how realistic it was, especially for a foreign film, of what growing up is like, whatever your gender or orientation is.
That Is Jennifer holiday,Billie holiday’s daughter at the end On backup vocals. Something I just discovered tonight is the Dimash opera too I really think you should check it out and do a reaction Love this!!
Correction Jennifer holiday is not billie holidays daughter- And I always thought that was true. But then I had to Google it just to make sure I was telling you correct stuff
Van, a very Happy Emancipation Day from Canada. It's official after being celebrated since 1834 in Owen Sound, Ontario, the northernmost end of the underground railway. Love and peace to you and yours.
🇨🇦 61YO From Montréal Canada Love your baseball cap ❤🤣 Try The Zac Brown Band Live from Austin City Limits Song is 🎵 FREE/IN TO THE MYSTIC you will love this one too Keep the good work Van ✌👏🤟💪
If you are born between 1970 and 1980 then there was no escaping this song from much music, MTV other music stations, radio and dances and camps. How have you not herd this song being your born 78. I know you mention you herd this part before but styll. Keep up the good work and keep it genuine.
I feel like there isnt slot of difference between hard rock and rap, and soft rock and r&b. So many comparisons between them. It's why you gotta experience all types of music soul, blues, country, classical. They all are relatable to so many. Loved the reaction
From Foreigner, check out Cold As Ice, Blue Morning Blue Day, Head Games, Starrider, Double Vision, Long Long Way From Home, That Was Yesterday, Say You Will, Urgent
I don’t know why you young people always want to put music in genres. It doesn’t matter what you call it, it is extraordinarily beautiful music. Just listen and sing and let beauty fill your soul.
watching some of your older videos of some of my favorite bands.... would love to see you listen to some more Foreigner: Hot Blooded Dirty White Boy both a little more rock that this video..... ENJOY!!!!
Beautiful song and video. I Was forced to search "what is love" after this and was shocked to read the most perfect exposition of what love is in, of all things, 1st Corinthians chapter 13 of the New Testament of the Bible. Mind blown!!!
Love the Expos hadt gear. You've gotta check out Stevie Ray Vaughn 1st Voodoo Chile, 2 Texas Food. Pride and Joy #3. Welcome top the world of intergalactic universal sounds of the Gods. Peace and good luck. One love...
My Uncle was a member of the New Jersey Mass choir. And was a dynamic choir director at my church I used to attend in NJ. He was featured in this video.

💜💜💜
The New Jersey Mass Choir made this song.
That's so cool! And I will forever remember his name since I come back to this vid a lot:) Also, I love fun facts. I raise my glass to Mr. William!- Becca
wow… that is awesome. RIP to your uncle.
Let’s all raise a glass to your uncle
I've heard this song a million times and it still gives me goosebumps every single time. The vibe is love and peace and goodness. We need so much more of this!!
It sounds like a message the whole world needs to hear now,,,Beautiful...I get tears in my eyes every time I hear this...hats off brotha
YES YES YES I just said this today when hearing it.
yes you are so right... this age 2024 we need this mentality
One of the most under-rated voices in Rock. Period...............actually the whole group is pretty damn good aren't they.
Lou Graham has one of the best voices in Rock history!! He can sing anything, and his range is off the page. Listen to the first album. Foreigner
Yes, I absolutely agree!
That's a romantic ballad. Story goes that in the beginning they don't wanted to perform it because isn't rock, but they finally did and become a huge hit. If you want to check their heavy rock hits there is some of them:
Urgent.
Juke Box hero.
Hot Blooded.
Cold as ice.
Double vision.
cold as ice 🔥🔥🔥
Foreigner is one of the best bands ever; this was one of their “softer” songs 😊 Please react to “Urgent”, “Jukebox Hero”, and perhaps their best, (also soft) “Waiting For A Girl Like You”💎💎💎
💯...👍👊😎
🤔
Yes!😀
Lou Graham still has legend status in Rochester
Their "JUKEBOX HERO" is truly a rock anthem.
Juke. Box. Heeeerooo! With stars in his eyes!!!!
Yes, it truly is
Gotta listen to the right version. Must be the right lead singer.
nooo ..lol
One of the most beautiful songs ever. I also love their rock anthems (especially "Jukebox Hero". Lou Gramm's voice gets me every time.
I absolutely love this song... no matter how bad, how off key, I have to sing the chorus
You and me both lol
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You can’t go wrong with Lou Gramm! Absolutely amazing singer!!
All the power rock ballard front guys could take their voices to the next level. Some of the best songs ever sung!!🥰🥰
Lou Gramm could sing his ass off....rock, pop, blues, all that 😎
I'm puttin this out to the community, maybe it's a small enough world... in 1984, (there's a reason for the description) my all White, middle class, white collar choir went to compete in NYC, we were in Battery Park and somebody in our group started singing this, we half heartedly chimed in.

I carry this memory with me every time i hear this song. Music really is the universal language 🧡🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
its just pure soul, makes my heart melting, giving me goosebumps all over ... no matter how often i heard it.
Sing the chorus with all your soul!!! That’s what I do.
Me too my friend , I love it , I saw these guys in concert
When I saw these guys in Huntsville AL they brought out the Alabama A&M choir and blew the joint up!!! First time I ever saw a concert and wound up being taken to church!! It was awesome!!
Foreigner song suggestions:
Cold As Ice
Urgent
I've Been Waiting For A Girl Like You
Feels Like The First Time
Love your appreciation for truly wonderful music Van!!!❤
Every song on the album Foreigner 4 absolutely awesome but Jukebox hero and Urgent you have to give yourself a treat🤘💜
I watched a woman do a reaction to this video and song. During the whole time the video was showing she never once open her eyes to watch the video. I think the reason people love this song is because of the video that goes with it. Watch it again this time with your eyes open.
I disagree. We all heard the song first on the radio, no video. Video distracts from actually listening to the song.
If only we could achieve this level of love for each other as a people !!!
Lou Gramm was the lead vocalist before he quit. Mick Jones played keyboards in this song.

Covers.
Mariah Carey covered this song. Morissette Amon covers Mariah. Suggested video: Morissette Amon sings I Wanna Know What Love Is in MYX. Morissette Amon is from the Philippines. 🇵🇭
Suggested next Foreigner video: Waiting for a Girl Like You. 🇬🇧🇺🇲
They just took you to church. A spiritual message for sure, for lonely people everywhere. God Loves you.
Good music always hits you in the soul, on a cellular level. These musicians give a part of themselves for their fans. No electronics at all!
Omg lmao hope u liked it they have a plethora of hits gr8 reaction bro
The 70's and80's. All about love , togetherness and having fun.
This song is a great classic!
It’s a classic 1980’s pop ballad and the r&b you here is the New Jersey Mass Choir out of Newark NJ This song was a enormous billboard number one back in 1985
It's when he says "I'm feeling so much love" at 6:31 for me.
When I saw Foreigner in concert in the Late 80's when they played this song they had a full Choir on stage with them
I believe that was the Harlem Choir. & YES they were a rock band.
Such a great song. So much longing and emotion. Great reaction 👏🏼👋🏼🙌🏼👍🏼💜🇨🇦
GREAT choice. Such an incredible song. Such an incredible band. True 70’s and 80’s legends. They have an extensive catalogue of incredible music. Hope you check out more.

Foreigner are a super smooth rock band and this is an epic Rock ballad

I think music can bring the world together !! My opinion ..it has for me watching CZcams and songs and videos like this one !!
Foreigner was kind of groundbreaking at the time by bringing in a choir like that to sing the chorus in a predominantly white scene.... it was a moment in time of peace, respect, and brotherly love. Why can't we be like that everyday??
I remember watching this (on MTV) when I was super young when it first came out and tearing up because it was such a beautiful thing.
It has been in movies, commercial, and spoofs. This is that classic "Baby Making Music".
This is the song we played at my aunt's funeral. She was 6 months shy of her 30th birthday. She was addicted to cocaine and she didn't see a way out of the addiction. She had a 10 year old son. She loved this song.
Love Jennifer Holliday - Billie hollidays daughter vocals on this -
A recommendation something I just heard you gotta check out. dimash. Opera 2
Foreigner is my favorite group and the song is my favorite also

its all about the love!
This came out when I was a teenager. Got to see them many times.
"URGENT" BY YA BOYZ
LETS GO!!! 🙏
Foreigner 4 ... one of the greatest albums of the 80s. Where is new music that hits hard like musicians used to make?
I saw a Swedish film in high school in '98 whose English title was "Show Me Love," (I won't repeat the Swedish title) after the Robyn song, and this song was featured prominently in that movie. Obviously at the time, there was only one reason for me to see it (Google it - after you watch my man's reaction here...I was 16 at the time) at that age, but having watched it again recently, I really appreciate both the movie and how well done it is and how realistic it is for teenagers of that era like myself, and how great the song is and how well placed it is in the movie.

Love this!!
Correction Jennifer holiday is not billie holidays daughter- And I always thought that was true. But then I had to Google it just to make sure I was telling you correct stuff
Many great bands love other genres and implement them in their sound
Van, a very Happy Emancipation Day from Canada. It's official after being celebrated since 1834 in Owen Sound, Ontario, the northernmost end of the underground railway. Love and peace to you and yours.
This is what is known as a power ballad. The Scorpions are well known for some of the most iconic ones of the 90's
Lou Gramm has a voice! Great Reaction 👍
Montreal Expos cap, welcome to Montreal.
just saw a react from you on foreigner. here they are from. back a few months
You're too funny!! 🤣
Lou Gramm the lead singer is blue eyed soul at it's best. He got some bangers as a solo artist as well. Try "Just between you and me".
We called this soft rock back in the day
Imagine if races in the world came together like this

Jukebox Hero!!!!!!!!
In the 80s pretty much every rock band sang power ballads.
Jukebox Hero.
There's reason it keeps getting suggested, lol.
Love it.
I don’t know why you young people always want to put music in genres. It doesn’t matter what you call it, it is extraordinarily beautiful music. Just listen and sing and let beauty fill your soul.
Check “I’m gonna win..” Also their BRI first album! Many treasures

Hot Blooded
Dirty White Boy

Curley hair is lou gramm one of the greatest rock voices EVER sir
Foreigner was a Rock band, but they were all doing ballads back then.
You should listen to “Urgent” one of their best songs in my opinion
Lou Gramm has one of the best voices in rock in my opinion
Rock Ballads have a lot in common with The Blues. But yeah, this is one of the songs in my End Track List.
Beautiful song and video. I Was forced to search "what is love" after this and was shocked to read the most perfect exposition of what love is in, of all things, 1st Corinthians chapter 13 of the New Testament of the Bible. Mind blown!!!
Jukebox Hero 🎵🎼🎸 you'll know it bro
This is one of their softer songs. Their heavier stuff is very good.
Love the Expos hadt gear. You've gotta check out Stevie Ray Vaughn 1st Voodoo Chile, 2 Texas Food. Pride and Joy #3. Welcome top the world of intergalactic universal sounds of the Gods. Peace and good luck. One love...
Love your expos cap
