In a 2015 interview with Classicrockrevisited, Gramm explains his thoughts about why "Head Games" sold less than the first two: "The big change in the band happened after "Head Games" and before "Foreigner 4". We were really aware that "Head Games" didn't sell nearly as much as the first album or "Double Vision". Part of that was because of the cover. The song "Head Games" was banned by a lot of radio stations after the cover of the album came out. Today, that would not have even been a problem. But in the Bible Belt, the cover of the cute little girl in the boys' bathroom erasing her number off the wall...They didn't see the humor in that. It wasn't supposed to even be sexy. She was sexy...she was cute. It was just the time and the place of what she was doing that was supposed to leave the impression. She was erasing her phone number off the wall of the boys' bathroom and that's all it was. A big deal was made out of that and it really hurt our sales."
