As a DJ every wedding that I have ever done since this came out I have to play this because people like because they can dance to it. So its not a stupid song at a wedding. A stupid song at a wedding and I get asked for it alot but refuse to play is InDaGadaDaVida by Iron Butterfly.
But I'd have to say, it seems to me that most of them are listening to that God-awful hip-hop "music" that we're so plagued with these days....where are good pop and rock and roll? SAD.
95% of teens these days listen to the same formulaic, crappy pop over and over again. If you're one of the 5% who still listens to real music, thumb this up, then copy and paste it to at least five videos. Don't let the spirit of real music die!
not only old music, es wird immer irgendwelche variationen geben, die die musik ausmachen, musikklau inbegriffen, den es gar nicht geben kann, weil irgendwelche töne schon immer in irgendwelchen zusammensetzungen existiert haben und werden. wer sich damit abgeben möchte, bitte.
I suppose I'll forgive him for singing this song a key down...the original key would have more impressive though. Them high notes at the end when it goes a key up would be real impressive to see done live. Great singer though...
imagine getting to go to some little music club in your town and hear this? clothes and styles may come and go and come again... but tunes like this are once in a lifetime
@TheBlind6666 That is funny. A friend of mine told me once when I came back to work after a lunch break, which I utilised by going to the gym. I'd been complaining about how my butt hurt (from the machines) she said to me that I was looking for love in all the wrong places.
Hahahahahaha your comment was similar.
However, I am a 70's babe. Not 70 years old. And I like that song.

I saw this guy live 1974 in Market Drayton town hall in Shropshire England whilst on leave from the Navy, he was great and I have never forgotten how good he was and still is.
Djs keep playing this at wedding receptions and birthdays along with Build Me Up Buttercup and Come On Eileen everytime, without fail. It should be law that if the DJ plays all of the 3 mentioned songs at a wedding reception or birthday they should be shot then beaten up.
love how he's wearing figure hugging clothes when he's actually a guy you wouldn't fuck with in a hurry :) love this song, but there's something missing, it's a bit too upbeat and not in an ironic way. Most likely he had an idea it would be a sad song then money came along and said "now's not the time". oh well this is how we shall remember it
I love Billy Ocean! He used to go to the same school as my dad at Stepney Green, London. I thought at first my dad was bullshitting because i always thought Billy was american but i looked it up and its true, he was born in Trinidad but raised in the UK
