We had the vinyl at home in the 80's and I remember singing African Queen as a toddler. Nostalgia had me googling and I bumped into Caribbean Queen and I thought all my childhood was a dream. Also a European Queen. Probably undercover activism, but Billy Ocean's brand was clean and he tried to cater for all. I'm from South Africa and a British singing this meant a lot. I grew up humming these lyrics in my head..
Same here, only I recalled all of the versions and wasn't sure which was the real one and which were just confused memories. Turns out they were all real and I'm not losing it as much as I thought... 😅
If you want it on CD, check out "The World's Greatest 80's Anthems", a brilliant double CD from South Africa, showcasing the biggest hits of the 80s there.
Hello everyone, I’m from Moscow, the first time I heard, and I saw Billy on TV in 1989, and since then I’ve been listening to this wonderful musician👍.
Здравствуйте, я тоже выросла в Москве, и знала Billy Ocean по видео с утёнок бегущим, с машиной на заправке. Уходи из моих снов-садись в мою машину! Её постоянно крутили на канале 2×2. Это супер хит! И вот решила найти его в сети спустя многие годы. Помня о нем!!! И нашла столько хороших видео, благодаря интернету!!!! И тут сразу 3 варианта песни! Это же чудесно! И сейчас он прекрасно выглядит и очень добрый человек, в его интервью это видно!!! Дай Бог ему здоровья! А вы в какой программе его увидели в 1989? На Новый год в зарубежных концертах в новогоднюю ночь?
@@Borjomi777 Здравствуйте, так же как и вы на телеканале 2х2 , который транслировался на москву и мос. облать. Трансляция началась 1989 году и помимо, Billy Ocean - Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car. Так же были там такие клипы, как Bryan Ferry - Don't Stop The Dance, Niagara - Pendant que les champs brûlent, Eurythmics - There Must Be An Angel (Playing With My Heart), Stakka Bo - Here We Go, KAREL FIALKA - Hey Matthew, Whitney Houston - I Wanna Dance With Somebody, , Erasure - Always Falco - Der Kommisar, Pet Shop Boys - It's A Sin и Go West.
@@Borjomi777 А так же просто потрясающий песня и клип, британской певицы Yazz - The Only Way Is Up И вот они все проигрывались по кругу и все с огромным удовольствием просматривались и прослушивались мной. Большинство этих исполнителей для меня, на тот момент, были открытием. И с тех пор я всех их очень люблю, уважаю и продолжаю их слушать. И вот эти замечательные песни звучали одна за другой и все вызывали у меня большой интерес и наслаждение. Мы тогда с моей семьей узнали много новых имен и голосов, которые раньше не слышали. И сейчас я все еще помню и ценю их творчество. Я и сегодня продолжаю их слушать, с огромным удовольствием.
This was the first version I heard decades ago, I was a little upset when it turned Caribbean, European.. so forth and so on. Still a lot of people haven't heard this one yet and have no idea it exists.
Really? Oh My. My side story is: in those days here in 🇻🇪 English songs was kind of banned instead to give space to our own artists (which is no often now) but this one, reach our radio stations..till the 90's even.
@@PindoleneEuropean actually performed well in UK and several other countries. It wasn’t until Caribbean was released in US that it snowballed everywhere and performed better than other versions
It was basically the same song just depends on where one lived. Caribbean Queen was the version released in the America’s, European Queen in Europe and African Queen for Africa. Even in the music video at about 1 min a poster on the wall clearly shows European Queen before changing to Caribbean Queen at 1:03 min mark.
This is not a song. Masterpiece I cant stop listen it since the eighties, i was a teen This sax introducing.... the rythm ... interprétation...all absolutely fabulous
For those getting confused here, Billy's hit from 1984 (in both US & UK) was indeed 'CARIBBEAN QUEEN - (No more love on the run)'. I still have the original 12" single within my vinyl collection to this day because I love the song. However, on n the B-side of the 12" edition of the single there are TWO songs, the first is 'AFRICAN QUEEN ( No more love on the run - new extended mix)' as heard here...and the second is 'Dancefloor (extended mix)'. You're welcome by the way... EDIT: The version of Caribbean Queen on the 12" single edition, is also an 'extended mix', and that's why I bought it in the first place.
Heard this for the very first time just now, I had to come search for its cause all my life I only knew Caribbean queen, so I was wondering if I've been hearing wrong all this time, but it turns out there is more than one of the same song. Being Jamaican we use to hearing Caribbean queen.
Released in South Africa and many other countries in Africa as a fully-fledged 7-single. While AFRICAN Queen is readily available on several compilations, especially in South Africa, the 7-single is in much demand and quite a rarity.

Summer. Sun. Traveling on "truck-house" somewhere through Central American States, stopping in the pub, in the desert, to drink some cold beer. This type of music.
Billy had an African, an European and a Caribbean queens. Something flirtatious. 😁 In my country, it was known the Caribbean Queen version. I love 3 versions.
Originally the title was to be the American queen, but he said in an interview that someone had suggested to him the title Caribbean queen, he had to make the version African Queen since.
@@fernandahernandez501 nah. European Queen was actually the first one. It didn't do well and then Caribbean Queen was made. Then after the success of that one another song was made which was this one.
I still prefer "Caribbean Queen"..However while serving overseas in Germany we thought the song was "European Queen"...A black male co- worker told us the truth that the record producers made Billy Ocean change the song from "Caribbean Queen" to "European Queen"..
Love this version so much better! This is probably the original version. The masses made him change it I bet! Them bastards! Definitely don't want so call blacks to have any cultural pride.
So true..Once when we were in the mainly "black" mall in downtown Buffalo NY..One of the black workers saw the store full of happy black people..His music was playing low (forget the song) ..Then out the blue he cranked it up a bit..wasn't too loud..Then we all started dancing and jamming..Then the white security abruptly came on the scene angry asf.."TURN IT DOWN" and "DON'T DO IT AGAIN"..Goodness..We couldn't just have a BRIEF moment of cultural pride and togetherness..The black store clerk expressed this also..However I'll never forget that 1 minute of how we were all jamming..
Billy Ocean releasing 3 versions of the same song probably gives a lot of people the Mandela effect
nice pun
Wow I had no idea lmao hell "African queen" is need to me lmao
😂😂😂😂😂
I don't give a darn if this comment is 2 years old.....it summed up my boggled mindstate perfectly.
European Queen, Caribbean Queen and African Queen
Antarctican Queen now we're sharing the same steam, and 2 hearts that freeze as one.....
🎵Mexican Queen 🎹 now we're wearing the same jeans... 🎶
🤣🤣🤣
Actually "caribbean queen", "african queen" and "european queen", 3 versions/variations exist of the same song by Billy Ocean

the way he made every continent feel special by releasing a different version. his mind 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Except maybe Asia?
I must admit that African Queen seemed to fit the music better (3 syllables instead of 4)
But I'm African, born and bred.
It was a marketing thing. All about the money.
What about Dairy Queen?

You know that a lot if land. She the queen of Africa. 54 counties and she's the Queen of all 54 of them .. damn.
An incredible performance.
Wait, whaat- European, Caribbean & African Queen..now I'm confused as I shake my ass once again in my room 🕺🏽
Love ❤️ this song. This song was a huge hit for Billy Ocean 🌊. it’s still one of my favorite songs.💃🕺❤️❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯💯

African Queen.., the original version Wow!
La version original es "European Queen"
Love Billy Ocean at 15 yrs 1985 going to disco back then in Uganda, I'm glad now listen to it over and over
Please come to San Antonio Texas billy ocean!
Regina with German roots
ah yes, the superior version
Definitely a different mix altogether on this version. Sounds a bit rougher. The European & Caribbean versions are more polished.
I heard of Carribean Queen and European Queen but not African Queen.
P.S. Come to Chicago please!
pls come to brasil
