"Two Piña Coladas" is a song recorded by Americancountry music artistGarth Brooks. It was released in March 1998 as the third single from his albumSevens. It hit No. 1 on the Billboard Country Charts in 1998. A concert version is available onDouble Live. The song was written byShawn Camp, Benita Hill andSandy Mason. Camp provides an additional acoustic guitar.
A man feeling the blues (most likely a love problem), turns on the news when a person comes on, claiming that "heartaches are healed by the sea." Without a moment's notice, he heads down to the beach, eager for a night on the town. After twopiña coladas, the man begins to feel elated, and at this point never wants to leave. The chorus also suggests that he continues drinking, specifically, drinkingCaptain Morgan, until he forgets his troubles and is happy.
The song is inF major with an approximate tempo of 120beats per minute[2] and a moderateLatin music feel, punctuated by severalacoustic guitar runs (mostly performed byShawn Camp, the song's co-writer). A large crowd of singers joins Brooks on the song's final chorus.
"Two Piña Coladas" gained the number 29 position on theCMT40 Greatest Drinking Songs: Morning After broadcast.[3]
