and I always thought this song refered to the Copacabana Club in Cuba, the famous one. Actually Manilow mentions that their names were Rico and Lola, typical cuban names and not new yorkers, but I really don´t know.
@Floydian76 You are absolutely correct! The song says it: "Copacabana, the hottest spot north of Havana", which is the right location for the actual Copacabana club in Cuba. The name Rico refers to the 'rich' man who fought with Tony.
@TheGnomeCity I am sorry for you he did write the song, when he was in RIO DE JANEIRO IN COPACABANA, CARAMBA TODO MUNDO SABE DISSO MENOS VOCE JACU, HE DID LOVED THE PLACE, SO THIS IS THE RESULT.
I was down there 4 years ago. Had fun, but Unbelievably crowded on a Saturday night. Who wants to pay $150 for dinner on a sidewalk with thousands of people walking right behind you?
Yeah, this is the same place that they replicated in GTA: Vice City. Art Deco never fails to impress me for some reason, and I think it's neat that they replicated that area in the game. Art Deco isn't really appreciated enough these days.
At any rate, gotta write down this place so I can remember to visit it in the future. I forgot all about it. ;}
One of the best song from the King of music Mr Manilow.

why does he sing copa hottest spot north of havana? in geography i learnt that havana was in cuba? so that should be south of havana?
afertyus1000 2 years ago
The song is set in The Copacabana Club in New York. That would put it way north of Havana.
TheGnomeCity 2 years ago 2
cheers for that,i never knew!
afertyus1000 2 years ago
This so true, they ARE singing about the old Copa club in New York. However, I believe this video shows clubs and hotels in south Beach (Miami, Fla).
