Royal Carribbean commercial couple years ago...
Cant remember the song title, driving me nuts...
Had lyrics like...
'You dont need a holiday...
'When you're on the sea alone...
...
ARGH!
Please help.
:confused3
 
The only song I could find connected with Royal Caribbean was Lust for Life by Iggy Pop.....but it doesn't have the lyrics you've mentioned.

When you said "out on the sea alone" I could only think of Little River Band's Cool Change?
 
"Lust for Life" definitely does not have any references to being on the sea alone....lol. Anybody who is familiar with the lyrics to the entire song will know why that's funny. :lmao:

"Island in the Sun" by Weezer immediately popped into my head, but I think Sandals has been using that song in their commercials, not RCCL.

Hmmm....

Gotta Get To Disney! :moped:
 

It was apparently used in a "Beaches" resort commercial and it is called.

Island In The Sun

Hip hip
Hip hip
Hip hip
Hip hip

When you're on a holiday
You can't find the words to say
All the things that come to you
And I wanna feel it too

On an island in the sun
We'll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can't control my brain

Hip hip
Hip hip

When you're on a golden sea
You don't need no memory
Just a place to call your own
As we drift into the zone

On an island in the sun
We'll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can't control my brain

We'll run away together
We'll spend some time forever
We'll never feel bad anymore

Hip hip
Hip hip
Hip hip

On an island in the sun
We'll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can't control my brain

We'll run away together
We'll spend some time forever
We'll never feel bad anymore

Hip hip
Hip hip
We'll never feel bad anymore
Hip hip
No no
Hip hip
Hip hip
We'll never feel bad anymore
Hip hip
No no
No no
No no
