Exactly 64 years today, Billy Ocean was born in Trinidad. Billy Ocean is a British recording artist who had a string of R&B international pop hits in the 1970s and 1980s. He was the most popular British R&B singer-songwriter of the early to mid-1980s.


Originally, he was named Leslie Sebastian Charles, but he changed his name to Billy Ocean probably because he really liked goats and the ocean.....


As a child, Billy's father moved the family to London where Billy worked as a tailor for Bugle Boy pants. Billy Ocean soon became a singer and then achieved unprecedented chart success. Most people agree that out of Billy Ocean's 23 chart-toppers, his best song is "Caribbean Queen."
