@@blobgooll9395 Well people didn't know any better. You cannot miss something you don't know about. I'm sure in the future they'll be an invention that entertains future generations that we have no idea about. Can't miss what you don't know bro
My father passed away this January in a car accident. He always used to send me this song during tough times and it always helped. Thank you dad I love you ❤️❤️❤️
I could never get enough of this song. The chemistry between Michael, Kathleen and Danny.. just a chef’s kiss! Love all 3 the movies they did together ❤
@Daniel, I love you too brother. Am glad you're here with me. We're tough and so, we can climb high the mountain. I wish you the best from my heart ❤ bro. Even if the going gets rough, we'll get rough too to break it.
Because age hit her hard, a lot of people don't remember Kathleen "Legs" Turner. Stone-cold 10/10. Body Heat, War of The Roses, Jessica Rabbit. Woman was fire.
@@bartsullivan4866 As time passed, they gravitated towards music that is easier and easier to make. That's what happened. Look at hiphop... They lost singing in key, gave up on tempo & rhythm, and now they're giving up following any sort of rules in their... music, if you wanna call it like that. The lyrics are shallow, the artists have no real talent because it's just about sound bites now. The standard dropped because this thing is now done by kids who have not had time to learn the core skills of music.
Ahhh. The 80’s. The Good ‘Ole Days. Back when music was played with actual INSTRUMENTS! And singers didn’t need to be ran thru “auto-tune” & computers. The 80’s as a whole will NEVER be topped!
TheT0nedude Definitely agree. The song is fantastic and on top of it to have all 3 in the video singing is amazing. This song was stuck in my head from having heard it at work; found this video on RUclips and now listening to it on the loop.
"Having Kathleen, Danny and Michael in the video as backing singers is pure class..." Hear, hear! It is a reverse tribute to Billy Ocean - his song appears in the film, the stars of the film appears in his music video.
One time, while doing aerobics, I was dying and they put on this song, my favorite st the time, and I powered through! Always loved Kathleen, Michael, and Danny! Sad about Kathleen's rheumatoid arthritis!
Doesn’t everyone agree, the eighties were bloody brilliant 😂 gosh how times have changed, and not for the better, unfortunately 😂 it’s a good job, we’ve still got our memories 😂😅
It was amazing growing up in the '80s how one unforgettable, iconic song after another would hit the radio year after year. Many of them were part of movie soundtracks. But they all felt like they refreshed, renewed and reinvigorated your life with new, positive energy and excitement. And, today, as an adult, they bring back wonderful memories of more peaceful, easier, happier times.
Well said! Music had so much more depth and uplifting energy to it back in those days! Nobody did soundtracks better than the '80s! Frankly, the music was probably just as memorable as the movies themselves.
Soundtracks were incredible back in 80s and 90s. Whenever you hear the song you remember the movie and every other memories. Those are the day when people really made effort and put on real work.
Yep. Too right. We were very fortunate with the music, TV and film. And we still had plenty of access to music from the 60s and 70s too. What fantastic decades.
It’s not fair that I can’t give this more than one thumbs up. So many great memories came back from my youth. Year 2023 and this song still sounds great!
😢 sound times lesson these old memories make me sad when I remember some good people that use to be around these days r I p to many n give God thanks to know that am still here .so I can teach these youngest all about those gud old days god bless my age n older that is still lesson to these old memories songs
@@wesleytyler9599 AMEN!!!!! He was DEFINITELY discriminated against because he was black. In the ‘80’s, Black Performers were Discriminated Against and were not allowed to have SUCCESS and HITS. Other than Prince, Michael Jackson, The English Beat, Living Colour, Billy Ocean, Tina Turner, Janet Jackson, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Whitney Houston, Bobby Brown, NWA, Public Enemy, Ice-T, Kool and The Gang, Lionel Richie, The Commodores, Marvin Gaye, Bill Withers, and countless other African-American Artists ---- other than those, NO BLACK ARTISTS WERE ALLOWED TO HAVE HITS AND SUCCESS IN THE ‘80’s.
This is weird, kinda like a dream. "Billy Ocean and his band were performing, but Kathleen turner, Danny Devito, and Michael Douglas were backup singers."
When the going gets tough, this Billy Ocean 🌊 is one of those classic songs that still holds up in 2021. Michael Douglas, Danny DeVito and Kathleen Turner are all having a lot of fun as backing singer's. Those were the days.
+irishxxkelt When pop stars were real song writers. The 70s and 80s produced so much good music and genres I think its hard to say which decade was better. Id say the 80s vibe was definitely defined by the synthesizer which is perhaps more pertinent today.

Silly thing to say. There’s been stunning in every era. The main problem with the current music of any time is that isn’t hasn’t filtered out the bad songs that won’t stand the test of time yet! It’s that simple. You may have been a teenager when this came out too.

looks like Kathleen Turner, Danny DeVito and Michael Douglas were having a great time performing in the video, I miss how fun and lighthearted music was back in the 1980's.
I miss not being quarantined because of a global pandemic while my life savings and career evaporate and my president is a stupid twat. Well, that last part was the same in the 80’s.
This was when we had it good, and we didn't know it. Gas was cheaper, as well as food. I could ride my bike, walk up my road, and not worry about anything. Of course, I was a lot younger than i am now, and didn't have the health problems i have now. I wish i knew then how good i had it!
this song is so relevant today: when the going gets tough, the tough get going” means “when the situation becomes difficult, strong people are able to step up and handle it”.
Yes that's the best thing to do, passing this music down to our younger generations. More often than now it works out real well. I know some younger folks who have shunned todays music in favor of stuff like this.
Thats one thing ive done. My 25 y old son loves the 80s. Raised him on whats a true classic. From Rodney Dangerfield, Sam Kinison, to Wierd Science, Eddie Murphy Raw, Old SNL, The Dark Crystal, Jaws, U name it ! He knows stuff & actors people his gen know nothing about. 🥲 So proud he gets it. 💯
OH MY GOODNESS CAN WE BRING THE DECADE OF EIGHTIES BACK MUSICALLY WHO'S AROUND FOR THAT THUMB UP PLEASE! !!! NO LIE TODAY'S FOLKS CAN'T MAKE HIT SONG LIKE THIS ANYMORE!! PERIOD 😪!
There's so much beautiful music being created today you're just not listening to the right stations. We got Coldplay for Christ's sake. Every generation has incredible music
Brings back 80s babies good memories of my childhood back in ''1985" 86" back in the days back when all popular Home box movies had good soundtrack songs🎶🔥🔥🔥😎

July 2024. Found this song and sent it for a friend who got fired today. She has children, just moved into her a new apartment. Hope this song gives her hope for something better sooner.
I once heard Judge Joe Brown once said after retiring. When he was a Criminal Court Judge he would give 20 year, 30 year, 40 year sentences and the defendants would just take them like it was nothing. He said he hoped just one person would have said, "No Judge, you ani't giving me that sentence". And he would have taken it back. But no one never did. Tell your friend to tell this life episode "No you are not taking anything from me and my children!!!! You are going to GIVE ME more than enough!!!
They also played a little bit of it in the pilot episode of GLOW(Gorgeous Ladies Of Wrestling) during the Americana & California Doll vs Spanish Red and Royal Hawaiian match

totally! the music was epic in the 80s!
Romancing the Stone!

I miss not being quarantined because of a global pandemic while my life savings and career evaporate and my president is a stupid twat. Well, that last part was the same in the 80’s.
to jest oczywiste : )
Billy ocean all day long 👍
This song is a legend !!!! Beautiful , rythmic song !!!!!
An unique moment with Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner and Danny De Vito.

beautyesthetics too bad it only has this many vizualizations... people dont appreciate godlike music!!!
This was when we had it good, and we didn't know it. Gas was cheaper, as well as food. I could ride my bike, walk up my road, and not worry about anything. Of course, I was a lot younger than i am now, and didn't have the health problems i have now. I wish i knew then how good i had it!
Amen. I miss that world, because I sure as hell don't know what this world is. Today is hell.
That is great
When I think of "The Jewel of the Nile" I think of this song. This song never gets old. 😍😍😍
this song is so relevant today: when the going gets tough, the tough get going” means “when the situation becomes difficult, strong people are able to step up and handle it”.
Absolutely!
I agree!, Lisa, things are going to get SO tough. I'm getting ready! Take care.
Or in some Texas politician's case, pack your bags and head to Cancun.
Today this would be called "When the going gets tough, get offended and be whining". Unlike today, people in the 80's had character and guts.
Exactly!!!
I miss the 80's so bad...Teaching my granddaughters to love these awesome music!!!
Yes that's the best thing to do, passing this music down to our younger generations. More often than now it works out real well. I know some younger folks who have shunned todays music in favor of stuff like this.
So crazy and positive music❤️
Your right 80s was real
My mom and dad were alive since then until before the 1990s.
Thats one thing ive done. My 25 y old son loves the 80s. Raised him on whats a true classic. From Rodney Dangerfield, Sam Kinison, to Wierd Science, Eddie Murphy Raw, Old SNL, The Dark Crystal, Jaws, U name it ! He knows stuff & actors people his gen know nothing about. 🥲 So proud he gets it. 💯
This is October 2024. Still rocking this hit song.
Every good 80's song had the prerequisite saxophone solo because let's face it, sax sells. 2:50
OH MY GOODNESS CAN WE BRING THE DECADE OF EIGHTIES BACK MUSICALLY WHO'S AROUND FOR THAT THUMB UP PLEASE! !!! NO LIE TODAY'S FOLKS CAN'T MAKE HIT SONG LIKE THIS ANYMORE!! PERIOD 😪!
Peter B.: All of them up!!!2019
We're all here!! And it's great comfort you're here too!
Me.
Always, happy times💃💃💃💃💃
@Rachel Brown the good old days.
Puts the songs of today to shame. No abusive language, No crude rap lyrics, just pure talent and pure music. We have lost so much.
There's so much beautiful music being created today you're just not listening to the right stations. We got Coldplay for Christ's sake. Every generation has incredible music
Love you too and we are you going to the mount Vernon CA and MMS scandal video URL is
@@rowannicholls7285 love ya too!!!
Asgaurd64 very very true you can say that again
Jonathan Strauss mate Coldplay are wank they used to be good about 15 years ago. All music these days is poor and never remembered.
Luv this and the movie yeah 😅❤
Brings back 80s babies good memories of my childhood back in ''1985" 86" back in the days back when all popular Home box movies had good soundtrack songs🎶🔥🔥🔥😎
I really like how Michael, Kathleen and Danny all look like they are legit having fun.
They really had.No acting,just pure joy and fun.
Q buena música !!! de mis tiempos aún lo disfruto nada más hermoso 👍🤗🤗
One of the best feel-good songs of the 80s. What a great jam, nice bass. Always loved hearing it on the radio back in the day.
Love Billy Oceaneo❤️This is a great video😎
Was war das für eine tolle Discozeit das war noch Musik vom Feinsten. Habe mit meiner Frau zu diesem Lied getanzt.Das ist jetzt 45 Jahre her. Tolle Zeit ❤❤❤
I love Billy Ocean.
C'était utilisé comme générique d'une émission sportive au Cameroun. Que de souvenirs
L'émission c'était fou fou foot...sur la télévision d'État CRTV plus précisément.
😊⚘😚

Who doesn't
Thank you Billy Ocean for the best music ever!!! 💯 And Kathleen Turner, Michael Douglas and Danny DeVito for the fun!! 🤗
Billy captures the 1980's perfectly. Soulful and joyful!

Listen to this song and tell me that 80's music isn't the greatest.
It definitely was. I was lucky enough to grow up with this fabulous music
Straight up Legend,the music industry needs to be ashamed for not showing this great he's due recognition!
+E.B Jombo this should not B surprising 2 anybody we all know how white peoples steal & use blacks 4 their talent, hell whites want 2 B every bit the black race but, they can claim, steal, lie, etc, it does not matter bs blacks will always have what white peoples want bs, they don't know R have nothing black peoples wants R need. the white people has stolen everything from blacks economically so, this is the only way blacks can accomplish their talent threw whites. other than that blacks has no purpose 4 white peoples !!
+Mike z Have you seen Forrest Gump? He takes credit for stuff black people did.

I'm Pulse I agree :)
+Donna Baham But you put white people hair in your hair Lmfaooo 😂😂😂
July 2024. Found this song and sent it for a friend who got fired today. She has children, just moved into her a new apartment. Hope this song gives her hope for something better sooner.
Same Here
You’re a great friend stranger
I once heard Judge Joe Brown once said after retiring. When he was a Criminal Court Judge he would give 20 year, 30 year, 40 year sentences and the defendants would just take them like it was nothing. He said he hoped just one person would have said, "No Judge, you ani't giving me that sentence". And he would have taken it back. But no one never did. Tell your friend to tell this life episode "No you are not taking anything from me and my children!!!! You are going to GIVE ME more than enough!!!
Kathleen, Michael, Danny made 3 films together ❤️ ♥️ 😍 💙 War of the roses,Jewel of the nile,and Romancing the Stone.
80's music is fabulous, this a song you can't still or not sing along to.
Danny, Kathleen and Michael seem to be really enjoying themselves.
Hello 👋
How are you doing?
Billy had that Midas touch.
Every song he released turned to gold.
That baseline gets me everytime.
Great song 🎵
call him "Wayne Braithwaite" 🎼🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶!
and he is a mayor part of this song ...
wonderful base
awesome billy
This was the ending credits for "The Jewel of the Nile" basically part 2 of "Romancing the stone". Cool song.
Good luck with 😊❤❤ music and it sound so cool 🎉
They also played a little bit of it in the pilot episode of GLOW(Gorgeous Ladies Of Wrestling) during the Americana & California Doll vs Spanish Red and Royal Hawaiian match
Why don't Black people sing like this anymore?!? it's all rap or r&b and now all black people sound exactly alike.
He doesn't sound like a black guy to begin with...
The B-Side Music Revue nope, it's very true
very funny
I think the OP meant that in the 80s, black singers made R&B music with new wave and rock influences, whereas now they're pure hip hop.
Actually he does !
