Those of you who know me at all know that there are few things I like more than, at least when it comes to music, doing covers of songs that have no business being done acoustically. I'm like the lesser established, female version of Pat Boone.

Anyhoo, I awoke Saturday morning with the theme from Jewel of the Nile running through my head and I thought, "Whoa, that Billy Ocean is something else. That is a great song!" And it unfurled from there.

To refresh your rememberies, you might enjoy the original -- take note of the back-up singers. Brilliant!



Enjoy! (Also, MySpace is now allowing us to post 10 songs instead of six! Go MySpace! And for those of you who are curious/harrassing me, no, I'm not on Facebook yet. Sorry Charlies, I'm still riding the 2002 train.)
