Foreigner is a rare rock band in that their power ballads are way better than their rock songs.

Most of their rock songs, like "Dirty White Boy" and "Hot Blooded" are rather pedestrian and cookie cutter.

On the other hand their ballads like "Waiting For A Girl Like" and "I Want To Know What Love Is" are still getting airplay even today.

Pretty much launched Thomas Dolby’s career.
