An amazing song. Although Kelly does a great job with the vocals. No one could ever compare to Lou Gram's vocals when he was healthy. I use to literally get goose bumps from the powerful highs me belted out on his vocals during this song! Thank you Foreigner and thank you Lou Gram, we miss you Lou and thank you Kelly also, you have an amazing voice and we certainly recognize your amazing talents and also powerful voice and the courage it takes to step into a legendary vocalist' s place and for both you and Lou to remain caring and respectful of each other. You have obviously put a ton of effort into taking Over for a man who has to be considered one of the best vocalists in Rock History, and you have been performing admirably and in time, a legend in your own right!
