I pick 'When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Get Going' because I like songs with really long titles. JK I really like that song best. I also like'Lover Boy', 'Suddenly' and 'Love Zone'.

I voted for "Loverboy", that song is cool and the video reminds me of a send up of the "Star Wars" cantina scene. :thumb:

I went with "There'll Be Sad Songs":( I am a sucker for love songs.
Especially the ones that break your heart. Those are the best to listen to and remember and wonder what if?

I voted for "Loverboy"... I really like the intro to this song, how it starts off slow and then suddenly revvs up... It's a great song to hit the dance floor to... :dance:

It wasn't easy but I voted for "Caribbean Queen." Billy Ocean had a stretch there in the 80's that he had one hit after another so it's tough to choose just one favorite.

This is another one of those artists whose music all sounded the same, but this is indeed a good one.

Based on my post here (http://www.80sxchange.com/forums/showthread.php?postid=137711#post137711), I think you know my choice. ;)

I voted for Caribbean Queen because it was the best dance song Billy Ocean made. I don't really like most of his other hits.

Caribbean Queen. It's got the funkest bass groove. I liked the grooves in some of his others but this one is my fave

Not too big on Billy Ocean, but I'd have to go with 'Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car'

I picked "Caribian queen". The funny thing is, that he also recorded another version "European queen" for ... Europe. :cool:

Didn't Billy Ocean sing 'Love Really Hurts Without You'? I may be totally wrong here! If I am, I'd say that 'Get Out Of My Dreams, Get Into My Car' is my favorite Billy Ocean song. ;)

I Voted For "Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car" Cuzz I Heard that Song alot as a kid. Followed by "When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Get Going" & "Caribbean Queen (No More Love On The Run)"

I Never Heard "Loverboy" Until I Bought The "Bilboard's Top 10 Hits of 1987" (or 1989, Can't Remember) CD.
