I say this all the time, this man single handedly revived and saved the band CHICAGO! And they weren't appreciative of it because they felt it wasn't Chicago but it was! David gave Chicago what they would sound like in the 1980s and he achieved that big time!!

I love David Foster's confidence and honesty. Yes, you could view him as "arrogant", or "cocky", but he just strikes me as someone who knows who he is, what he wants, and is willing to do what it takes to get it. There's nothing wrong with that. He isn't afraid to voice his opinion and will tell you what he is really thinking. That's why he's been so successful. The world is full of phonies. He isn't one of them.

Fantastic response. 100% accurate summary of the king.

Thank You David Foster for gifting the world with beautiful music. You hard work has amazing results.

I appreciate David's heart and his recounting of the story of the 5 year old little girl who needed a liver transplant, and how his gift of an airline ticket meant the world to her and her family. Bless you, David Foster. We just made it through a second kidney transplant for our only child, Julian. He's 16 now, and his first transplant was at age 3, and he and my husband returned to AZ in October from Stanford Children's where they had been for 4 months. David has written/produced/performed amazing songs and worked with amazing people, it his clearly his gift and strength, but it is his heart for transplant kids and their families that makes him a rock star in my book.

This was an awesome interview, respectful but not “fan boy” interviewer held his own with Mr. Foster. What a huge honor to have David Foster accompany you on the piano. Nice!

I never knew how many songs that David Foster had written. He is so talented. Judge his music but not his married life and divorces. Great interview and I enjoyed it very much. Love all his songs.

This man really knows how to combine music notes to go deep in your feelings.

David Foster is a musical genius. Hit after hit. I never knew as a kid most of my favorite ballad's were created by him.

I love love love David Foster!

Thank you Mr Foster for Motivation to complete a God given legacy.

What a legend! I didn't know him but sure did know his work and legacy. My heart is filled with joy today! :D

I love how the interviewer really knows David Foster's songs.I hate it when the composer/singer ask questions about the interviewer's favorite songs of him then he can't answer.

Such a accomplished talented man.

Just found this. Love every second, every minute. The love, the genuine passion, dedication and conviction is so inspiring - every time.

I love this interview. Not an ounce of boringness...i respect David Foster and the legacy he created...what a life...what a career.

Tom Power...you enrich my gray matter: always...a fan and student, thank you

Greatest music producer ever. Period.

David Rocks... I really love this man. All these concerts we can see now on youtube. His songs makes me happy

David Foster is a genius ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

When he says the music came through him not from him that makes so much sense because in my line of work I work as a master holistic healer a lot of times information when I'm in front of a client around a client information will come through me not from me many times we will be talking about their relative and I hear myself talking and saying things I've never done before and the client will tell me that's exactly how my grandma sounded that's the way she would have said it..... Their past loved one and the messages from them come through me to the client.....

I LOVED David foster so much,, and his my IDOL forever!!!!!!!!!!

This is one of Tom's BEST interviews. Wow! It was like watching two old friends sit down for a chat. UNBELIEVABLE! This MADE my night. David Foster rocks! And Tom Power rocks!!!!!!

When I visit a shop or market selling cd’s, I turn the cd cover over & look for David’s name - that way I know it’s the best & I’ve never been disappointed 🎼

Fantastic video and with two amazing men speaking from their heart. Thanks 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

He's a decent guy and great advert for a cool, older gentleman with style.

I'm just discovering David Foster's influence. He's such an amazing person.

So many great singing artists, I learned about David Foster when I learned about Michael Buble all of them so talented

God has blessed this guy tremendously ....In fact , God Himself chosed a body called David Foster , to express His divine musical genius ...

Ha! Just got to the part “have you ever met someone you wish you hadn’t?” I was a festival promoter/operator/owner for many years in the early 2000’s and met many of my hero’s. My top two disappointments- Sly Stone (meth head when I met him in Detroit in the late 90’s) and Robert Cray (totally restocked his wine fridge on his tour bus at my expense!) One of the very nicest guys - Jimmy Vaughn (gave his entire rider to the stage hands! Booze too!) and an honourable mention goes to Bob Babbit (RIP) - the only possible replacement for James Jamerson! A prince of a man!

NY: Bit that's how I sound man! (NY sang like Bob Dylan on We Are the World.) LoL Junos. Teen-aged girls knocked on my door. I thought that they wanted to see me, but they wanted to see the guy next door, Bryan Adams! LoL

Exactly my response.

David is pretty cool and with Yolanda by his side no stopping the amount of success they will have...

It’s a shame that there are young KZreadrs pretending to know music who sit there with headphones listening for the FIRST TIME the most iconic songs by artists who really knew music and had no auto tune. It’s disingenuous and pretty clear evidence that they are clueless about good music and it’s history. Certainly not worth watching.

How can you miss his hit "Whos gonna love you tonight"

When they recorded I will always love you they might be right about the third verse wrapping aroound, but saying that he mistakingly grabbed Linda Ronstadt's version is a understate to Linda Ronstadt. That was the only version he knew and what inspired them to sing it. The way Whitney sung it is exactly the way Linda Ronstadt sung it. Despite of no singing the third verse, there is a huge influence from Linda Ronstadts version. Not much from the original version by Dolly Parton. I think they should give some credit to Linda Ronstadt too.

I'm embarrassed I'd never heard of him before housewives. Even then I had NO idea how many songs he'd written.

I miss the collaboration of David and Charice.

Nice interview but the interviewer is taking himself a bit too seriously. Channeling his inner Charlie Rose? And Foster's massive ego is on full display but I guess that is the price we pay for the great music he's made.

Ease up on the strong eye contact..it's a little aggressive

St. Elmo's Fire is like a chef bragging about a junk/fast-food food hit.

I don't think you meant to use the word "ethics". Just a fact that two thirds of married couples get divorced. Are you seriously saying two thirds of all people are UNETHICAL? And then when you add the show business component, the figure goes up significantly. Rich and famous folk know they can always "upgrade", and they get bored easily. Is it commendable behavior? No.... but it is human nature.
