your video is just fine! I have always loved Billy. i had his first album and i just played it over and over it was and is so great!!! Thank you soso much for posting this song!!!
He has been pretty active. His daughter is one of his backup singers when he performs. There is a very light rasp to his voice but he performs the songs the same way, encouraging people to sing along and dance. Saw him in 2009. Awesome show!
Who is the female soloist on the chorus background on this song? It has the amazingly smooth sounds of Phyllis Hyman, could it be her? Love me some Billy O...lol..saw him perform at The Syria Mosque in Pittsburgh in the middle80's...he was incredible as a live performer.
brings back memories of 1985 sitting in front of the radio.i was only 13 and r&b was more popular than rap.it hard to beat 80's and 90's.gosh,i miss those days!!!!
I actually had got busted stealing this song that was on a casette tape back in high school lol ... Excellent song forever the greatest of all time songs...
@jellybabie68 Not knocking Butlins but this is exactly what is wrong with the music industry. Artists of this calibre having to play there to earn a living. This guy should be in the top 100 pop hall of fame for his contribution. Instead we are being fed XFactor crap that everyone should know by now is a sick joke. We've gone from great pop music like this to a chart for teletubbies in the space of 20 years.
@TheAXELgroup Actually Billy Ocean, Keith Vincent Alexander and James Woodley wrote this song together, it was not written for him. Cool you know him, not cool you're a Jehovah's witness. Religion is for suckers.
@Debtlo413 Billy Ocean is actually still touring - I saw him in concert a few years ago. I think the most recent thing he's done is a webisode of "Live From Daryl's House" with Daryl Hall of Hall and Oates fame. Google "Live From Daryl's House" - it's Episode 29..
HE IS STILL AROUND AND PERFORMING IN THE UK I THINK I SAW HIM IN AN INTERVIEW RIGHT HERE ON YOU TUBE HE HAS LONG GREY DREAD LOCKS BUT IS STILL INCREDIBLY HANSOME I HAD THE BIGGEST CRUSH ON HIM AS A TEEN I LOVE U BILLY
@Debtlo413 Billy returned to his native Trinidad in 2002 and has earned notable respect and adulation from schools of fine and performing arts, being awarded an Honorary Doctorate Degree from the University of Westminster.
Now a graying, bearded, dreadlocked elder in his 50s. Billy enjoys gardening, playing pan, and occasional touring in Europe.
I Love this song i forgot all about it until i found it again ! Sounds even better today wish they would play these beautiful songs instead of all the other crap , 80's ROCK!!! Love ya Billy .....
For those who grew up in the old Bendel State of Nigeria in the mid 80s to early 90s, this song reminds one of the indefatiguable radio presenter "MAY NWOKO", the "mystery lady" of the then Bendel Broadcasting Service, Benin City. This song always served as an intro anytime she takes over as DCA. Those were the good old days! I wonder where she is now!
no,ich werde zuerst meine Leiter hochklettern und mich kennenlernen,than I want to START again.Über 7 Brücken muß ich gehen um nicht zu verdursten!Aber mein PARTNER wird AUFWACHEN for SURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have seen him twice in concert in Basingstoke recently...he was fantastic, brought the house down, and got to see him afterwards when he came out, was SO sweet to talk to, signed photos and let everyone have their pictures taken with him..............FANTASTIC MAN
Even after all these years, I still love this song. Nice beat and vocal harmony. I guess as we mature we tend to dump the bubble gum pop for a more contemporary sound. Billy is one of few who contributed a unique dynamic to 80's music.
One of my favorites! I remember hearing this on the radio the night hurricane Gloria arrived in NJ in 1985. It's been a favorite ever since. Superb!!!
This is a good song to dance to with your lover when its just the 2 of you together. There's only one thing I don't understand- When he says "mystery lady", is he referring to a girl whose name he dosen't know? I've always wondered what that term meant.
Being a long time "American Top 40" listener(before Ryan Seacrest took over), It was a pity to have heard that this classic didn't peak higher than #24 on the pop charts
Shabbalicious, this is such a delight to hear this song again. It's amazing you don't hear this on the radio these days. People get caught up in the more popular singles and often times overlook the uncovered jewels on a album. The vocals,the melody is so enrapturing. I feel this deeply.
Please everyone, is the old man at the end of this video Billy Ocean? Pls, tell me he is not the one. What? what happened to him? why did he decide to be like this? Is it some kind of religion? What happened to his old age? he looks like some kind of prophet. pls i need answer frm any one. My goodness.
