    At work our music player glitched out and played this song 5 or 6 times on repeat. It drove our customers crazy but the staff LOVED it. We were humming it in the kitchen for weeks

      For starters it sucks... and I mean it REALLY sucks!
      Another is this guy just reeks of gayness... and I mean REALLY reeks!
      Finally, could it be any more clear that he ALSO sucks at lip-syncing... and I mean he REALLY sucks at it!!!
      That just 3 reasons. But enough to answer your question. And I mean REALLY.... (oh you know the rest)!!

    The one time where TikTok discovers a song and gets it right (And I love the platform, but man their song trend choices drive me up the wall a lot of the time). Barry Manilow is fantastic from what I’ve heard so far. I’ve always heard of him through various things like The Breakfast Club, but I never really dived deep into his discography for years until now. Definitely a great solid artist and a very well written song! Disco really did stay around for such a long time, because it was just that good and fun to listen to. I feel like I was born in the wrong decade a lot of the time, too. I’m a 90’s kid, wishing I could be a 70’s or 80’s kid.

    This song popped into my head yesterday and wouldn't leave so I decided to look it up on TH-cam because some of the words eluded me. Great song but sad too. Just shows how you can lose someone you love and you never recover from that loss.

    "I am Music, and I write the songs!" Can you think of another more perfect theme song for this multitalented man? I am so happy to see a whole new generation discovering his music. Barry Manilow and Neil Diamond are the only two performers I've seen in concert where I could look around at the audience and see at least three generations of fans. My 72-year-old mom, my 12-year-old niece and I saw both of them in concert years ago (different concerts) and it was unforgettable. Their music will outlive all of us.

    Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl
    With yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there
    She would merengue and do the cha-cha
    And while she tried to be a star
    Tony always tended bar
    Across the crowded floor, they worked from eight til four
    They were young and they had each other
    Who could ask for more?
    At the copa (co) Copacabana (Copacabana)
    The hottest spot north of Havana (here)
    At the copa (co) Copacabana
    Music and passion were always the fashion
    At the copa they fell in love
    Copa, Copacabana
    His name was Rico
    He wore a diamond
    He was escorted to his chair, he saw Lola dancing there
    And when she finished, he called her over
    But Rico went a bit to far
    Tony sailed across the bar
    And then the punches flew and chairs were smashed in two
    There was blood and a single gun shot
    But just who shot who?
    At the copa (co) Copacabana (Copacabana)
    The hottest spot north of Havana (here)
    At the copa (co) Copacabana
    Music and passion were always the fashion
    At the copa, she lost her love
    (Copa, Copacabana)
    (Copa, Copacabana)
    (Copacabana)
    like in Havana
    (Copa, banana)
    Music and passion were always in fashion
    Her name is Lola, she was a showgirl
    But that was thirty years ago, when they used to have a show
    Now it's a disco, but not for Lola
    Still in dress she used to wear
    Faded feathers in her hair
    She sits there so refined, and drinks herself half-blind
    She lost her youth and she lost her Tony
    Now she's lost her mind
    At the copa (co) Copacabana (Copacabana)
    The hottest spot north of Havana (here)
    At the copa (co) Copacabana
    Music and passion were always in fashion
    At the copa don't fall in love
    don't fall in love
