Happy Birthday to Foreigner’s Mick Jones who celebrates his 78th trip around the sun today. For today’s Forgotten 45 at 3:45, we go back to 1984 for the band with “That Was Yesterday”.
The song was the second hit from their “Agent Provocateur” album following the success of their #1 tune “I Want to Know What Love Is”. Mick says the song is about a relationship that failed. You still feel that there’s a chance to resurrect it.
The song reached #12 on the charts in early 1985, and after this song, only had two more top 10 hits with “Say You Will” and “I Don’t Want to Live Without You”.
Check out the video to “That Was Yesterday” by Foreigner, today’s Forgotten 45.
