Foreigner is the seventh studio album released by British singer-songwriter Cat Stevens in July 1973. In addition to the minor hit "The Hurt", which received a moderate amount of airplay, Foreigner also included such songs as "100 I Dream" and the 18-minute-long "Foreigner Suite", which took up the entirety of side one. It is the first album written and produced solely by Stevens. It was mostly recorded in Jamaica using a brand new musical group, except for Jean Roussel on keys. The title comes from the feeling of being "a bit of an outsider" to R&B and soul music, Foreigner's genres, as well as Stevens's experience living in Brazil as a tax exile.
