At War With the World

The story behind

Foreigner recorded At War With the World in 1977, as part of their first album. The song was released on the album that gave the group its name, and was one of the tracks heard during Lou Gramm's audition to join the project. He provided the lead vocals, and the song became one of the group's most well-known tracks. It has a rhythm that moves between rock and pop, with a clear structure and lyrics that speak of struggle and resistance. It lasts just over four minutes, and on Last.fm it has more than 69 thousand plays. It is a song that is still played, and remains part of Foreigner's repertoire.
