Suddenly is the fifth studio album by British recording artist Billy Ocean, released in 1984. It featured his first major U.S. pop hit single "Caribbean Queen (No More Love On The Run)", which reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 record chart. Prior to that, his biggest success in the U.S. charts had been a #22 placing for "Love Really Hurts Without You" in 1976, which was one of a number of British hits he had achieved by the release of this album.

All songs written by Billy Ocean and Keith Diamond, except where noted.

On the European release, the first track was "European Queen (No More Love On The Run)" (4:50), replacing "Caribbean Queen". On the UK Jive release (HIP 12) the track length was given (and measured) as 7:52 and titled "Caribbean Queen (No More Love On The Run)".
