…So I’m putting my daughter to bed last night, and as I’m picking out a CD to use as the soundtrack, my eye happens upon Billy Ocean’s greatest hits. Okay, he wasn’t the most soulful black man of the ’80s, but, damn, he had some fine pop songs. And this song is…wait for it…simply awesome. (And if you don’t get that joke, you need to listen to the intro to the song again.)

Dude, I remember buying whatever album of his had “When The Going Gets Tough” on it (was it Love Zone) when that was released and being disappointed that that tune was the only upbeat song on it. God knows “There’ll Be Sad Songs (To Make You Cry)” is still cringe worthy.
