The story behind

Foreigner wrote "Feels Like the First Time" in 1976, before forming as a band. Mick Jones wrote it while looking for people to join him, and it ended up being the song that opened his first album. The lyrics talk about a change in his life: he divorced, went back to England, went to the United States, and reunited with someone. It was the first single of Foreigner, released in 1977, and it reached number 4 on Billboard Hot 100. The song mixes hard rock with electronic elements, and has a direct, happy rhythm. The guitar sounds strong, and the vocalist, Lou Gramm, sings with controlled intensity. The production combines hard sounds with background vocals and keyboards that give it a softer touch. It was one of the songs Gramm used for auditions, and it remains one of the most recognized tracks on the album.
