listening to 'everyone's gone to the movies' makes me think that jimmy was inspired by it when recording 'margaritaville.' which is the superior song, for sure -- it's not at the same level but it's sort of a 'deacon blues' for key west.

I hope everyone here is aware of the terrible movie "Club Dread," which features a washed-up singer whose song "Pina Coladaburg" was written and released slightly before "Margaritaville," and was eclipsed by its fame, and it's a very sore point.

want to be clear that I was responding to the thread premise and garbled my sentence. margaritaville is better than kokomo for sure, not everyone’s gone to the movies.

Kokomo is obviously the superior song.

luckily, when he tweaked it and rerecorded it as “Escape” two years later, Rupert Holmes had the last laugh
