Misc = "Hot Blooded" is a 1978 song released by the British-American rock band Foreigner, from their album "Double Vision". It reached #3 on the "Billboard" Hot 100 chart in the same year of its release. The song's subject matter is centered around a rock star who becomes aroused after meeting a fan. Though she brushes off some of his attempts and he suspects she may be underage, he still pursues her.

In a classic first-season episode of WKRP In Cincinnati entitled "A Date with Jennifer", the song is featured in a scene in which Les Nessman (Richard Sanders) prepares for a date with Jennifer Marlowe (Loni Anderson).

In the Simpsons episode "The Two Mrs. Nahasapeemapetilons," the song plays while Apu is enjoying being a bachelor.

In an episode of FOX's hit show "Bones", the two lead characters, Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) and Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) sing and play air guitar to "Hot Blooded", terming it a "guilty pleasure".

The song was sampled in Tone-Loc's single "Funky Cold Medina". It is also featured in a television ad for Diet Pepsi in Canada and was featured in an episode of the television show Aqua Teen Hunger Force. In the episode, saying the lyrics resulted in boiling the water in the pool the Mooninites were in.

The movie "Blades of Glory" featured this song when Chazz's boss, of "Grublets on Ice" (an ice skating play for children), walks into his room, as him and a few other skaters are making out with the female skaters.

In many Foreigner compilation albums, such as "Jukebox Heroes: The Foreigner Anthology" and "Complete Greatest Hits", this song's length is reduced to 3:04, to save CD time. A few other songs have reduced duration also, such as "Feels Like the First Time", with 3:53 reduced to 3:13.
