Sometimes, on twitter (or whatever it’s called nowadays), people will just become fixated with something.  Yesterday, it was this music video for a song called When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Gets Going.  I lost track of how many times I saw this video shared on Saturday.

So, I figured, why not share it here as well?

This music video was made to promote the 1985 film, The Jewel of the Nile.  Along with Billy Ocean, the stars of the film — Kathleen Turner, Danny DeVito, and Michael Douglas — also appear in this video.  Was Danny really playing the saxophone?  No, he was not.  Apparently, in the UK, this video was briefly banned because Danny was not a member of the Musicians’ Union and his miming of the sax solo went against the rules.

The UK banning something because an American broke a rule?  Wow, that’s so unlike them!

Enjoy!
