I grew up with Foreigner and I always loved this song, so I decided to cover it! Here is my hard rock version of Foreigner's Juke Box Hero. Hopefully, you enjoy it!

Have a great, wonderful, meaningful day!

Hi there! I'm Jason. I'm a drummer who pretends to play guitar and sing. I also own and operate a recording studio called ArtCitySound. I do all my own engineering. I figured having videos to watch along with the music would be a good idea, so I started making my own videos, too.

To me, music means something. Fun music is awesome, but I think there is a power in music to uplift, to heal, and to help us be better humans. Music can help to make life more meaningful.

I'm taking it upon myself to provide as much music as I can to anyone who needs it.

I invite you to visit my website MeaningfulHardRock.com (link below) and subscribe to my mailing list. As a way of saying "Thank you", I'll give you two free songs available for immediate download.
It will also keep you up to date.

Lyrics:

Standing in the rain, with his head hung low
Couldn't get a ticket, it was a sold out show
Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream
He heard one guitar, just blew him away
He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day

Bought a beat up six string, in a secondhand store
Didn't know how to play it, but he knew for sure
That one guitar, felt good in his hands, didn't take long, to understand
Just one guitar, slung way down low
Was a one way ticket, only one way to go
So he started rockin', ain't never gonna stop
Gotta keep on rockin', someday gonna make it to the top

And be a juke box hero, (got stars in his eyes) he's a juke box hero
He took one guitar (juke box hero stars in his eyes)
Juke box hero, (stars in his eyes) he'll come alive tonight

In a town without a name, in a heavy downpour
Thought he passed his own shadow, by the backstage door
Like a trip through the past, to that day in the rain
And that one guitar, made his whole life change
Now he needs to keep on rockin', he just can't stop
Gotta keep on rockin', that boy has got to stay on top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
Yeah, juke box hero, stars in his eyes
With that one guitar (stars in his eyes)
He'll come alive, come alive tonight, woah

Yeah, he's gotta keep on rockin', just can't stop
Gotta keep on rockin', that boy has got to stay on top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero (aah aah aah)
Juke box hero, (aah aah aah) juke box hero, he got stars in his eyes
Stars in his eyes
