I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face It was my own lovely lady, and she said, *"ah shit here we go again"*

Wife: You aren't supposed to be here. Husband: Neither should you.

I like how the lyrics of the song bait you into thinking it's going to be about cheating but takes a wholesome turn at the end.

"Im not nuch into health foods, I am into champagne" is one of the best lyrics ever written.

Am I the only one who suddenly gets random urges to listen to this song like out of nowhere after forgetting it even exists

So what are we learning? Communication is key

I was tired of my lady We'd been together too long Like a worn out recording Of a favorite song So while she lay there sleepin' I read the paper in bed And in the personal columns There was this letter I read If you like piña coladas And gettin' caught in the rain If you're not into yoga If you have half a brain If you like makin' love at midnight In the dunes on the cape Then I'm the love that you've looked for Write to me and escape I didn't think about my lady I know that sounds kinda mean But me and my old lady Had fallen into the same old dull routine So I wrote to the paper Took out a personal ad And though I'm nobody's poet I thought it wasn't half bad Yes, I like piña coladas And gettin' caught in the rain I'm not much into health food I am into champagne I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon And cut through all this red tape At a bar called O'Malley's Where we'll plan our escape So I waited with high hopes And she walked in the place I knew her smile in an instant I knew the curve of her face It was my own lovely lady And she said, "Oh, it's you" Then we laughed for a moment And I said, "I never knew" "That you like piña coladas And gettin' caught in the rain And the feel of the ocean And the taste of champagne If you like making love at midnight In the dunes on the cape You're the lady I've looked for Come with me and escape" If you like piña coladas And gettin' caught in the rain If you're not into yoga If you have half a brain If you like making love at midnight In the dunes on the cape I'm the love that you've looked for Write to me and escape Yes, I like piña coladas And gettin' caught in the rain I'm not much into health food I am into champagne I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon And cut through all this red tape At a bar called O'Malley's

This song hits different when you are in the throws of seasonal depression and you just want to feel happy for 3 minutes.

Nothing solves a relationship like cheating on each other with each other.

I knew her smile in an instant , I knew the curve of her face It was my own lovely lady, and she said, “You couldn’t live with your own failure where did that bring you, back to me.”

RIP Jimmy Buffett, thanks for bringing us this classic song!

IT'S 2023 AND STILL THIS MASTERPEACE MAKES ME FEEL GOOD

I remember slippin' jimmy sing this song and searched for it and it's my fav. Now.

This is the perfect song to listen to while flying through space

I remember the day that song came on the radio for the first time and the smile it put on my face. One of the few advantages of being old lol .,..

Fun fact: I had an emergency c-section and while they were opening me I was extremely nervous so an anesthesiologist asked me if I want anything to calm my nerves down, I said that I do, and 5 seconds after administering the drug I ended up on a beach and this song was playing and I was singing along the entire time. I'm an awful singer. This is now my daughters song.

If you ignore the fact that they both attempted to cheat, then this song has a deep meaning. It's trying to say that people have exactly what they want right in front of them, but they have yet to realize it. If the two of them had tried to talk to each other, they would have been able to make each other happy.

First line "I was tired of my lady" well damn😂😂😂😂

That was the ‘70’s - non/monagamous, exciting, full of thrills and better than any other decade!

I just love this song....never realised it was called Escape! Timeless classic

basically this guy and his wife cheated on eachother with eachother

The moral of this song is... communicate with your significant other about your likes, feelings, wants and needs then with an open mind listen to theirs.

We dont search for old songs, we search for memories. ♥♥♥

Words cannot express how much I love this song

this will be played in the credits when the end of the world comes

For over 30yrs I had never paid attention to the lyrics in this song, I just enjoyed the chorus till today 🤣🤣I died, what a story line!

Its my 21st birthday today, and to celebrate the death of my childhood i drank a piña colada and listened to this.

In elementary school, the boys would sing this song in silly voices while we waited to get into swimming classes. Do funny dances, too. Made us all smile, even if we were nervous. I didn't fit in enough to join them, but I appreciated it, regardless.

Fun Fact: this song was featured in the hit show _Dial S for Saul,_ which is a spinoff of _Little Malcolm at the Center,_ with Bryan Calrson who plays the iconic character Walt Heisenburger.

Lord Farquaad, you've chosen Princess Fiona.

Who's listening to this great old school song in 2024 let's see some thumbs up👍

I love listening to this kind of music. They don't make songs like they used to. These songs are forever the best times. Kids nowadays don't even know the meaning of songs that have rhythm. Nor the beat that everyone can dance to no matter what kind of music you listen to. Keep on keepin' on.

Calling it now, this’ll be the closing song for Better Call Saul

The guy: You shouldn't be here. His lady: Neither should you.

Wife and I been married for 23 years this song came out when we were kids and didn’t know each other…it’s a great story and metaphor for our relationship

It does the same to me ! Out of nowhere the song comes into my head! I have to listen to it !! It’s as fresh now as the first time I heard it !

There comes a time in your life where you just listen to this hours on end

LMAO I love how this song has a storyline. He leaves his wife because he was searching for escapism from a boring life, but ends up reconciling with her when he finds out they share the same desire.

I really love Shrek brought me to this timeless classic!

I listen to every genre of music but my favourite is house/techno but so many mixes are from old school songs like this I’m only 26 and enjoy this kind of music in my spare time when I’m not in club or bars 😂 I have soft spot for old classics like this these kinds of songs are made to be loved whatever kind of music you like

"If you like piña coladas-" "Dead guy, Charles." "Sorry."

“You’re making me beat up grass!” - Rocket Raccoon

Thanks Jimmy for this Masterpiece

The verse "in the dunes of the cape" always strikes me because I grew up on the Cape. On a warm summer night, there is no more romantic place anywhere!!

And the moral of the story is: Communication is key to any relationship.

“So this song is about a man having an affair?” Well yes, but actually no

I saw a post on facebook "If you smoke marinara" and I suddenly remembered "IF YOU LIKE PIÑA COLADA!"

CANNOT believe this movie is almost 10 years old! makes ME feel old!

the story of this song is honestly hilarious. how their plan backfired on them so bad yet so good.

Ladies, get you a man that will cheat on you with you

Got to meet him today. Great guy.

This was my dad's ringtone and I remembered and loved it ever since. I was really young when this was his ringtone.

I love that Guardians of the Galaxy introduced some great old classics to the younger generation. It's a good thing for music.

All the dislikes are from people who don't like pina coladas or getting caught in the rain.

I randomly feel like listening to this song on full volume when I'm sad

A timeless masterpiece. Beautiful song.❤🇨🇦🇺🇸

every 7 years I remember this song exists and get the undeniable *urge* to blast it on full. *This* *song* *unites* *all.*

Can we have a round of applause for the people who searched "Escape" to find this?

I think it’s a beautiful song, life can get so busy it really is easy to disconnect with one another. This song tells the story of going back to the simpler things and learn about each other.

Why is this legitimately my fave song right now? I'm 17; it's not even like I was born in the 80s 😂 In all seriousness, this is a great song--SO CATCHY!! Top of my playlist at the moment. Also, the scene in Guardians of the Galaxy where this plays is so hilarious lol

This song is a classic, never gets old, it's a masterpiece

Video: 3 minutes Battery: 2% Phone: "this song's cool tho, lets finish it"

what a song . this and nothing compares to you are the most intelligent songs i’ve ever heard❤

This song can never grow old.Itis based on true story.

Drax the Destroyer: "This one shows spirit. He shall make a keen ally in the battle against Ronan. Companion, what were you retrieving?" [Quill hands him his Walkman] Drax: "You're an imbecile."

Me, at the verge of cry: please, we need to focus in the homework My ADHD ass: *IF YOU LIKE PIÑA COLADAS*

Stayed at a hotel on a beach on Cape Cod in July. Slapped spotify to Yacht Rock and this came on when I was laying by the pool drinking a Margarita. Feel like this song was made for that.

Another American classic that's actually British

I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face It was my own lovely lady, and she said, "You're an imbecile"

I’d have loved to hear Rocket say something like “ Ya know, thus song is pretty messed up, Quill.”

this song just popped in my head randomly which led me here lol😅

Amazing while drinking Pina colada with friends

"You have selected....Princess Fiona"

The lyrics are a masterpiece. This song has it all. Timeless.

Ahhhhhh the best song about potential affairs

imagine an island, with palm trees and a big blue ocean. on the island are every person you liked wearing grass skirts and flower crowns, smiling and dancing to this song. i call it the pina colada island!

My middle school English teacher, who was also my advisor, played this song on the first day of school. He was an absolute legend, and a big fan of legendary songs like these. Needless to say, it got stuck in my head for the rest of the day. Now, two and a half years later, the world could not be more different. I've gone through so much as a person, the biggest being the pandemic, the loss of my mother, and moving on from rejection. Life is good, though. And I know that it'll stay that way. I haven't heard this song in two and a half years. Coming back to it today is like opening a time capsule to the past. In some ways, it doesn't feel so far away, but in other years it does. Maybe this song was always stuck in my head. I would have no way of knowing. This song brings back all the memories, good and bad. Sadly, that english teacher has since retired, but now pina coladas always make me think of him, and the years of my life which changed me the most. Thanks, Mr. M. See you at Tony's.

Lyrics: Verse 1: I was tired of my lady We’ve been together too long Like a worn out recording Of a favorite song So while she lay there sleepin’ I read the paper in bed And in the personal columns There was this letter i read Chorus 1: If you like piña coladas And gettin’ caught in the rain If you’re not into yoga If you have half a brain If you like makin’ love at midnight In the dunes on the cape Then I’m the love that you’ve looked for Write to me and escape Verse 2: I didn’t think about my lady I known this sound kinda mean But me and my old lady Had fallen into the same old dull routine So I wrote to the paper Took out a personal ad And though i’m nobody’s poet I though it wasn’t half bad Chorus 2: Yes, I like piña coladas And gettin’ caught in the rain I’m not much into health food I am into champagne I’ve got to meet you by tomorrow noon And cut through all this red tape At a bar called O’Malley’s Where we we’ll plan to escape Verse 3: So I waited with high hopes And she walked in the place I knew her smile in an instant I knew the curves of her face It was my own lovely lady And she said “oh, it’s you” Then we laughed for a moment Chorus 3: And i said “I never knew” “That you like piña colada And gettin’ caught in the rain And the feel of the ocean And the taste of champagne If you like making love at midnight In the dunes on the cape You’re the lady that I looked for Come to me and escape” Chorus 4: If you like piña colada And gettin’ caught in the rain If you’re not into yoga If you have half a brain If you like making love at midnight In the dunes on the cape I’m the love that you’ve looked for Write to me and escape Yes, I like piña coladas And gettin’ caught in the rain I’m not into health food I am into champagne I’ve got to meet you by tomorrow noon And cut through all this red tape At a bar called O’Malley’s Have a nice day 👍

I love this song so much. It comes on when I’m at work sometimes and I start randomly singing this as I hear other people doing the same. Singing such a campy silly but awesome tune.

If you're here because of Jimmy Buffet, RIP, you're in the wrong place. But you are not alone.

This song makes me nostalgic of my teen years back in the 70s. I'm 17.

Oh so refreshing now in 2024. With everything going on I love this tune. 😄

Amazing that this still has newest comments by the hour. Truly shows the meaning of a classic.

THIS SONG WILL NEVER GET OLD. I LOVE IT.

50/60 years later this song is still Platinum

who's listening 🎧 2023 🎶🎵🎵🎵🎵🎶🎶 ❤❤❤❤

This song is literally that cliché when the couple’s annoyed with each other and then get away from each other and realize that they had what they wanted all along. It’s literally in tons of books and movies. And this song is ridiculously fun!

To be fair, she was gonna cheat on him first.

This song is literally about a couple trying to cheat on each other but find out they cheat with each other and re spark that flame 🔥

I swear I forgot that this song existed and then started humming it and was like you know what let me just listen to it

When I hear this song I think of the two Spider-Men pointing at each other

Has a better twist than most of Mr. Shyamalan’s movies.

Clássica guardiões da galáxia 2023 ❤❤❤❤

Better call saul, best show I've ever seen.. if you had a time machine, where would you go?

"He may have been your father, boy, but he wasn't your daddy" ~Yondu who will forever remain in our hearts 👇🏽

when you cheat on her with her.

I often blast this song into my ears when I'm feeling down

2024 and im still listening to this

Let’s be honest who remembers this song from Grown ups.

This is the perfect song for running a law business as a guy named Saul
