Tooth and Nail

The energy of Tooth and Nail, with its 3 minutes and 54 seconds of duration, is built upon a solid foundation of Anglo-American rock. The music composition falls into the hands of Lou Gramm and Mick Jones, who shaped this track that is part of the album Agent Provocateur. This record, released on December 14, 1984, marked a milestone for Foreigner, reaching the top spot in the United Kingdom and placing among the top five in the United States.

The recording of Agent Provocateur featured the collaboration of a considerable team of sound engineers, including Josh Abbey, Larry Alexander, Bobby Cohen, Jason Corsaro, Tim Crich, Joe Ferla, Frank Filipetti, Howie Lindeman, and Scott Mabuchi. The production was led by Mick Jones and Alex Sadkin, who worked to bring the album's songs to life. Although sales in the United States did not surpass previous works, Agent Provocateur is remembered for containing highly successful singles, and Tooth and Nail is one of those pieces that contribute to the album's sound identity. The record was certified Platinum in the United Kingdom and triple Platinum in the United States, reflecting its impact.
