sunkellesso I heard Copacabana at Walmart today and that's going to be stuck in my head until the day that I die now.
Also, I love Copacabana with all my dramatic heart but I almost wish that there wasn't a verse that detailed who shot who and what happened to Lola. How GREAT would it have been if it went from
There was blood and a single gunshot
But who shot who? ---
to "don't fall in love baaaaa
down at the coppppaaaa
don't fall in love"
like knowing that it was in fact The Love Interest TM that died and Lola is sad and lonely works fine (and the "in that dress she used to wear, faded feathers in her hair" is a pretty great line) but. leaving it ambiguous would have been pretty cool too. just a foreboding "don't fall in love" at the end.
who died? tony? rico? lola? we don't know! but everyone is miserable and someone's in jail probably
dont' fall in love (baaaaa) down at the coppppaaaaa
