Foreigner – Double Vision

Foreigner’s Double Vision album achieved success through a combination of well-crafted songs, strong songwriting, talented musicians, extensive radio airplay, and favorable timing within the music industry.

Double Vision, released in 1978, followed up the group’s blockbuster debut with an album of FM mega-hits. Songs such as “Hot Blooded,” “Double Vision,” and “Blue Morning, Blue Day” became radio staples and resonated with a wide audience. Lou Gramm’s powerful vocals and Mick Jones’ guitar playing were key components of the band’s sound, and their musical prowess was evident throughout the album.

The album peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 chart and earned platinum-selling certification just a week after its release, and now has marked 7x platinum for sales in excess of 7 million units. “Hot Blooded,” reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. In September, it was followed by “Double Vision,” which charted at No. 2. This was the highest position Foreigner had attained to that time. The third and final single, “Blue Morning, Blue Day,” was released in December and climbed to No. 15 on the chart.

Foreigner was known for their energetic live performances, and they toured extensively to promote Double Vision. Their live shows helped to further connect with fans and promote the album.
