Legendary rock band Foreigner has joined Spotify’s Billions Club with their 1999 remastered version of ‘I Want To Know What Love Is.’ The song has now surpassed one billion streams, joining names like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Queen, AC/DC, and Elton John.
“We’re truly honored to be included in Spotify’s Billions Club,” Mick Jones said. “This achievement is a testament to the lasting power of ‘I Want To Know What Love Is’ and the incredible support from our fans around the world. As we look ahead to our 50th anniversary, this is a reminder of how much our music has meant to so many people over the years.”
While Fleetwood Mac has three songs and The Eagles have two in the club, The Beatles only have one, and Pink Floyd, The Who, and Bob Dylan are still not members.
This achievement is meaningful as Foreigner approaches their 50th anniversary in 2026, following their recent Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction.
‘I Want To Know What Love Is’ was released in 1984, and became a big hit. It reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earned platinum certifications. The 1999 remastered version has also been popular with both old and new fans.
As the band prepares for their 50th anniversary and tours, Foreigner is also planning to release new music. The tour starts on February 28 at Agoura Hills, California, and wraps up on March 15 in Florida before they start another tour in July.
