Poll question: Foreigner or Loverboy?
Some may ask why, and all I can say is that I don't know why. Really, I don't.

1. It's hard to imagine there would even be a discussion about this...
Foreigner is better than Loverboy by a country mile.

2. Foreigner
Loverboy was all about "Working for the weekend" that's all I remember of them.

6. I voted Foreigner
They had more hits than Loverboy. "Juke Box Hero", "Hot Blooded", "Urgent", "I Want To Know What Love Is", "That Was Yesterday" and "Say You Will". Loverboy really only had one song that hit the top 10. Can you guess what it was?





























It was "Lovin' Every Minute Of It". It hit number 9 on 2/15/1985. "Working For The Weekend" only went to number 29.

7. Foreigner and only because Ian MacDonald was a founder...
he did such great work as King Crimson's sax player. Never purchased nor enjoyed Foreigner, but I'm glad Ian was able to be in a monetarily successful band.
