When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going - Billy Ocean

The end title song fir Jewel of the Nile is Billy Ocean's "When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going". In the music video for the song, it stars Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner and Danny DeVito lipsync and dance as doo-wop backup singers. Because the three stars were not members of the Musicians Union, the video was banned in the UK. Despite this handicap, the song would be Ocean's first #1 UK hit.

Still I have fond memories of the film, the video and the music. As a result of this and the fact I have only slipped back down by one pound this week I think this week’s song should be, “When the going gets tough, the tough get gouing”

I got something to tell you

I got something to say

I'm gonna put this dream in motion

I Never let nothing stand in my way

When the going gets touch

The tough get going

I'm gonna get myself 'cross the river

That's the price I'm willing to pay

I'm gonna make you stand and deliver

And give me love in the old-fashion way

Darlin', I'll climb any mountain

Darlin', I'll do anything …

When the going gets tough

The tough get going

When the going gets rough

The tough get rough

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Oh baby

I'm gonna buy me a one-way ticket

Nothin's gonna hold me back

Your love's like a slow train coming (slow train coming)

And I feel it coming down the track …

Darlin', I'll climb any mountain

Darlin', I'll swim any sea

Darlin', I'll reach for the heaven

Darlin', with you lovin' me …

Please do continue on your own journeys of health and well being as I continue on mine. Hopefully we will continue to climb those mountains, swim those seas, reach for heaven as long as you are loving along with me!

Have a great week.
