Rezeption

Rezension

AllMusic bewertete das Album mit 3,5 von fünf Sternen. Stephen Thomas Erlewine schrieb: „...Can’t Slow Down sounds like it could have been a hit in the late ’80s, appearing as the sequel to 1987’s Inside Information. Hansen sounds uncannily like Gramm, to the point that any casual fan could mistake him for his predecessor, and the songs are good, tight arena rock, whether they’re fist-pumping anthems like the title track and Give Me a Sign or power ballads like When It Comes to Love and As Long as I Live. Nothing here is hip or will convert skeptics, but everything here will satisfy fans who have been waiting years for new music from Foreigner.“[1]

Charts und Chartplatzierungen

Das Album erreichte Platz 29 der Billboard 200, Platz 26 in Deutschland, Platz 58 in Österreich sowie Platz 26 in der Schweiz.
