Someway, somehow you've probably heard over fifteen different Foreigner songs on the radio in your lifetime -- it's just a inevitable formality of life. Whether you love the band or hate them, you can't knock them for having such a long and celebrated career. Sure, 2011's Foreigner isn't quite the same as 1981's, 4-era Foreigner -- but who cares?
