Loverboy - Billy Ocean

[ugalawdog98]

I know this is going to sound stupid, but the chick with pink hair reminds me of this Jew broad I knew in law school.

[lucernrox]

this is even awkward for the 80's

[AnimayeIsGaye]

This was the first video for this song. It was on for like 3 weeks before the negative reaction caused them to replace it with him singing on a veranda.

[dre123456ify]

leave it to the 80's to make some F-U-B-A-R videos! you just dont get videos like this and thriller these days....

[supermandisco]

I so related this to Star Wars Cantina.

[MicrotekMybisi]

Great Song! Terrible video... lol... Sorry Billy, but hey, it was the 80's...

[Deckard5254]

My favorite BAD 80's video of all time. It makes me howl with laughter every time.

[shmuli9]

@Deckard5254 Until now, Ihad never seen the video for this song (though I bought the 45). It's reminds me of the cantina in "Star Wars" and also of that odd Old Spice commercial ("You don't know it, but I'm riding backwards on this horse").

[Glendale41]

Love the song. I have no idea what the video is suppose to represent.

[Alikah1]

@Glendale41 I know what it DOES represent: the producer's lack of talent.

[adreamtosome]

Such a great video, I love Billy Ocean.

[GatorGrowl2010]

Great song!!!!

[Fine1incali]

I don't understand the video itself but I LOVE this song!!!! Keep belting out the tunes Billy!! =)

[karlmalone1289]

@Fine1incali It's the 80's, trying to understand is futile.

[drtuptup]

why are they in the cantina band scene from star wars singing about a loverboy ??

[towringer]

I love how the music "kicks up" at 0:47

[MrGafman5]

i agree its his best

[AstralRaven1928]

Does any one else think the girl At 1:57 is the spitting image of julia roberts?

[ugalawdog98]

@AstralRaven1928 Nah. She reminds me of a Jew broad I went to law school with. Don't ask me why.

[faustolg]

Bad video-audio quality.

and of course it's his best song ever!!!

I like this video but the quality isn't making justice to him!

[tripleH1313]

The best Billy Ocean song hands down. I'm not a big sci- fi guy but I really enjoyed the video.

[Clarinetplayer07]

this is a really goodd song! i love it hahaha(: and it isnt even in my eraaa lol (:

[minamiryanova]

Whoever the makeup artist was did a great job back then. Those things still creep me out !

[halleck3]

I'm not sure if this is a video or a bad acid flashback.

[cacciapilina]

i surprice that nobody use this song for a cover.........or for a mashup.......

[Fitotapias]

Me rercuerdsa mucho mis años de primaria Mtv, y claro star wars

[parachuteclubbed]

Yeah. My fave, too.

The vid's fine. It's reflective of the day (December 1984/January 1985). Sci-fi/medieval themes were still big then. 18 months after Return of the Jedi came out, this mimicked the Mos Eisley cantina in A New Hope, while mixing in an unholy test tube mix of The Dark Crystal (1982), Superman II (1980), and Time Bandits (1981). Sure, it's kinda dorky to see the final mutation of that baby, but seriously, night clubs always have reptiles like this trolling about for a date.

[UdoShan]

parachuteclubbed I couldn't have put it better myself!

[wotaj]

@parachuteclubbed

LOL

[Elizar777]

@parachuteclubbed I grew up watching this and used to call this video Star Wars..haha

[slub60]

I think this is Billy Ocean's best song. Anyone agree?

[3abductee]

Yes I agree. The music is well made and he sings with his soul. But the video is a little stupid...

[bRadicalmagic1]

@slub60 I think the 80's has been the only decade in all of history for the best music of all times, so like forever...the '80s

[sescob22]

@slub60  I agree!

[Ben121974]

@slub60 Absolutely!!!
