Description:
1985 song co-written and originally recorded by English singer Billy Ocean in 1985.
Written by Wayne Brathwaite, Barry Eastmond, Mutt Lange and Ocean, the song was used as the theme song for the Michael Douglas film The Jewel of the Nile. The saxophone solo is by Vernon Jeffrey Smith.
The song became a major international success, reaching number one on the UK Singles Chart for four weeks in February 1986, and number two on the Billboard Hot 100, stalling behind "How Will I Know" by Whitney Houston. It remains his only number-one single in the UK to date.
