Kelly Hansen has been the lead vocalists for Foreigner since 2005, but he is officially putting his studio stamp on the band’s old material. The band has released a new version of “I Don’t Want To Live Without You” with Hansen doing the vocals. The original version was released in 1987 on Inside Information, with Lou Gramm on vocals.
This version of the song will be released on the upcoming greatest hits album, 40, due out on May 19th. The album features 40 tracks taken from the band’s 40-year career.
When asked about remaking the song, guitarist Mick Jones, said “‘This is a song I have always loved. It has a special meaning for me as it was inspired by my mother. We decided to record it this time around with a modern sound and a greater guitar presence, as the original version was more of a keyboard song. It really worked nicely, and I’m very happy with it.”
