It has a classic 80’s saxophone solo in the middle. The song was recorded under different titles for different parts of the world – resulting in versions such as “European Queen” and “African Queen.” If you look closely in the video you can spot an accidental shot of Billy Ocean in front of a sign that reads, “European Queen.”

He had a string of hits, including Loverboy in 1985. The video is some sort of Star Wars tribute featuring a Cantina-like scene mixed with shots of Billy singing and being “blasted” into space. This great pop song hit #2 in the US.
