Comment if you were not born in or before 1988, the height of his artistry as well as the year Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car was released, and I will add you to the “Missed Billy Ocean” list.

If you were born in 1987, you still basically missed him.

Yes, but you were present during the year that his artistry reached its creative peak.

If you can’t raise your hand and say “present” it doesn’t count.

You were still present on this earth during the year that his artistry reached it’s creative peak. You didn’t have to be fully grown to be involved. That’s the power of Billy Ocean.

When the exaggerations get tough, the tough get exaggerating.

Depends how you define “missed.” I’ve got three of his songs (“Caribbean Queen”, “Lover Boy”, and “When The Going Gets Tough”), so I’m not completely unfamiliar with him.

More accurately, I guess, it depends on how you define “him”…

His music transcends time, so I’m not surprised that you’re a huge fan. That being said, you missed his creative peak.

I once heard someone speaking of him, and I asked “Whose that?”

You don’t know music if you’ve never met Billy Ocean.

“Huge fan”, huh? I said I have exactly three of his songs. ;P
