Billy Ocean - Red Light Spells Danger(Live!)

[RussellBoyce]

brilliant, just brilliant



[davetherave4164]

An absolute classic track always makes me want to dance whenever I hear it

[babajeni]

Are we really getting better or ............

[gurwilla1]

amazing song, after all these years I still starting tapping away to the beat; the 79s a much more innocent and fun era

[sirmikeypikey]

the 70´s were so cooool... what a classic

[im33dammit]

there's something really haunting about this song that i love

[kevtheshed]

Would have been a motown shoe in. A real legend voice.

[quinnelherder]

Wow!



[indieindahouse1]

yeah i was there watching my sister getting ready to go out this playing in the charts ...happy times best music......

[happy123315]

I don't know why but this song was buzzing in my head for weeks so i finally looked it up and now i know why. What a song, what a voice, what a blast from the past. Just an incredible voice and moving song, they don't make like this anymore.

[323blackbrook]

Billy, thank you...

[WuffWuffOhFlashy]

Better than Tom Jones who made it much bigger with a smaller vocal range and inferior modulation

[swarveBo]

So good, it still does the trick after all this time. He is the MAN!!!!

[northernpixie]

loved this at the time and I still love it ...

[simonwleeds]

Brillant!

[NICKIEYES1999]

late 60s and the 70s were the years for real music. this music had and has meaning and always will. its timeless. today music has no form. its alot of noise nothing more. and the song these so called stars are putting out are gone and forgotten in a few short weeks. why do you think this music is still being played and will continue to be played forever. you can laugh at the hair styles, the clothes even some of the things we said but they were the decades of real music and we lived it..peace 2u

[j1o2y3c4e]

And thats what you call real music :)

[shmuli9]

This song was retro even in the 70s, more like late 60s Tamla-Motown, with the swooping strings and the tambourines...

[Chesterpark1]

He is a very underrated singer and this song is pure quality

[1oldson]

a classic

[Ryan122122]

[DutchOnion]

Red light spells danger Can't hold out much longer Cos red light means warning Can't hold out I'm burning oh oh oh You took my heart and turned me on And now the danger sign is on Never thought the day would come When I would feel alone without you An' now I'm like a child again Calling out his mama's name You got me on a ball and chain Doin' things that I don't wanta I can't stop running to you Feel love coming through you Girl with you beside me Hold on, heaven guide me

[DutchOnion]

Red light spells danger Can't hold out much longer 'Cos red light means warning Can't hold out I'm burning. Red light spells danger Can't hold out much longer 'Cos red light means warning Can't hold out I'm burning I had my funk I played around Without a love to tie me down I always used to kiss and run I never wanted love to catch me. I thought I had a heart of stone But now I'm in the danger zone I can feel the heat is on Soon the flames are gonna catch me.

[DutchOnion]

I can't stop running to you Feel love coming through you Girl with you beside me Hold on, heaven guide me. Red light spells danger Can't hold out much longer 'Cos red light means warning Can't hold out I'm burning Red light spells danger Can't hold out much longer 'Cos red light means warning Can't hold out . . .

[luverlything]

Went to his concert last night and he is one of the few artists who is even better live than on record, his voice is amazing and seems to improve with age!! An amazing mover too, had everyone on their feet dancing, as soon as you hear the beat it's irresistable!! Will be buying his new CD tomorrow. Amazing band and backing singers too!! Billy you are the greatest!!! LUV YA!

[johnmc1690]

pure class

[KowboyCa]

Great voice

[litlen1]

Saw him last night and unlike 'arseyget' we got when the going gets tough as well as everything else but Red Light was the highlight of the night for me - awsome live, the way he belts out his songs and prances about on stage you wouldn't believe he's nearly 60!

[CarlowMod]

Top Norhern tune. KTF

[madmarco245]

Great voice and song. Truly superb...

[arseyget]

Saw Billy on Saturday in Skegness, he was excellent. did all the great songs except Going Gets Tough,, amazing vocally,, had a 10 minute problem half way through with the sound and Billy came out and did a question and answer.. then I saw him with my partner in the hotel we were stopping in a true gentleman

[kezbo2win]

what a fantastic track the best

[PaulTaylor68]

We also saw Billy 31 Jan 09 at Redditch Theatre. Great concert still has an amazing voice

[maputo95]

We saw Billy in Southend January 2009. He was BRILLIANT, 10/10!!

[Staffyno1]

Brilliant A++++++++

[maputo95]

This song and video came out in the 70s, 1977 to be exact.

[kym1518]

Are you sure? Looks like a UFO, see those little red lights all along its rim?, last seen hovering way too close to a wind turbine . . . .

[glastochick7]

This song will always remind me of a special person who has just come back into my life x

[stringhey2alfie]

haaaaahaaa i love that one ..but your so right

[allthereds]

at least his collar and cuffs match, unlike many of his loyal lady listeners!!!

[miklovesale]

[wybi100]

great song

[billy270564]

[anch0rman13]

[2503vinny]

Ledgend !!!

[wen0409dis]

[hieloluna]

Somebody else sees a sombrero in the audience right?! I'm just concerned about my mental health.

[74byrne]

do not section yourself,i too did see a raggy lamp shade floating contemptuously across the dance floor!yours specsavers lol.

[desy2478]

You probably did see it. It was the 80's so there were many crimes against fashion.

[nannerbj]

What a singer - brilliant

[billyboy141]

wikid man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rockventures]

Always loved this song by Billy. Saw him perform it live in Bridlington of all places - was it Summer 77 or 78?

Under-rated Artist by many. Great voice.

Thanks. 5*

[vwbubs]

Get Up And Danceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Love itttttttttttttt :)

Fantastic songgggggggggggggggggggggg :P

[barzouf94]

Love this song, I only discovered it by accident. Billy Ocean is one of the greatest pop singer of the 70's, 80's. It has a bit of a Mowtown Sound to it.

[billy270564]

outstanding

[darzen69]

One of the best songs of all time, sounds even better live too, thank you for posting this.

[IIILew2k8III]

[LeandroCenturion]

[daviegceltic1]

[muledong]

What happened to Billy..he seems to have disappeared into thin air!

[youtakinthepiss2]

if sex was a song this would be it,sounds as good live as recorded,how many artists can claim to do that today

[hotscunter]

I love billy ocean so much, im usually a rock and metal guy... But Billy is sure class and he sound is so orignal... And anyone has admit his look today is most epic... dreads and suit... EPIC!

[ajwashy]

[creatie2]

This song reminds me of a neighbourfriend who died 14 years ago adge 31. When we where 14, we both loved the song, but he had the record and I didn't. Everytime I here this song I think of him.
