Foreigner 4 was huge. A classic, but I can’t imagine them being in the RRHOF* Archived Message

Previous Message Foreigner is the biggest selling eligible band not in the RRHOF. Previous Message Pretty sure she has more #1 hits than anyone but the Beatles. And Ozzy is an icon, with plenty of big songs and influence. Seems like DMB and Oasis should probably get in eventually; both were among the biggest rock bands in the world for decent stretches in the later 90’s. But I also don’t feel like they are at a level where they just have to get in or anything. Foreigner is at a similar level, but I think they kind of low key sucked, so I’m fine leaving them out. Jane’s Addiction absolutely shouldn’t get in, nor should Lenny Kravitz or Peter Frampton. Previous Message Mary J Blige Mariah Carey Cher Dave Matthews Band Eric B and Rakim Foreigner Peter Frampton Jane’s Addiction Kool & the Gang Lenny Kravitz Oasis Sinead O’Connor Ozzy Osbourne Sade A Tribe Called Quest
