Description

Billy Ocean walked away from his career at the peak of his fame in 1988, but he’s back & in very fine voice with the new album ‘One World’ and a message of hope.  Recorded throughout 2019 at studios in New York and Manchester, England. Like the best Ocean/Eastmond collaborations in the Eighties, the music on One World draws from a disparate set of influences and offers a message of hope and joy. Opening track “We Gotta Find Love,” where Ocean begs the world to come together as one, sets the tone for the record.

One of many stand out track’s is the reggae-inspired All Over the World where Billy is accompanied by a children’s choir. It has a laid back mellow vibe, although the message is a serious one. Billy’s attitude to the pandemic is extraordinary and positive: “The time it’s giving you to reconnect with yourself and reconnect with other people, and reconnect with life – look around you and see what’s happening, because we go at such a rate that we miss things.” 

One World is an album that seeks to connect with people and does so in an uncomplicated direct , natural & very uplifting way. People will be reached globally by Billy Ocean’s music and his clear and pure intentions shine out throughout this album. One World is a gentle reminder to look for the good things in life…and this album surely is one of them!… no matter how tough life might feel at this present time.
