Two Man Sound - Capital Tropical (TSR Records 1981)

Details

Description

"Capital Tropical" is a song written by Alan Ward, J.P. Hawks & Nico Gomez.

Two Man Sound was a Belgian pop trio of the 1970s. Their style combined the disco music typical of the era with samba and bossa nova. Their signature hits were "Charlie Brown" and a Latin track called "Disco Samba". Charlie Brown was a success in Belgium and Italy but never broke the United Kingdom. In 1979, the samba song "Que Tal America" became an 'underground disco anthem' in North America. On the US Dance chart, the single, "Capital Tropical" was the most successful of two entries peaking at #11. The medley "Disco Samba" became a huge European hit in the early 1980s, with repeated hit-listings in euro-charts from 1983 through 1986.

Stop, you make me weep,
You knock me on my feet,
The shaking street,
In the Capital,
Stop, the rainbow sky,
We're learning how to fly,
The sun is high,
And it's tropical.

Capital,
Tropical,
Capital.

Stop, the beat goes on,
They tell me cos I'm young,
The skin don't come,
In the Capital,
Stop, you make me weep,
You knock me on my feet,
The shaking street,
In the Capital.

Capital,
Tropical,
Capital,
Tropical.

My feet are,
Shaking sweet ah, x4

Capital,
Tropical,
Capital,
Tropical.

Get it on, get it on,
In the Capital,
Get it on, get it on,
And it's tropical,
Get it on, get it on,
In the Capital,
Get it on, get it on,
And it's tropical.

My feet are,
Shaking sweet ah, x4

Get it on, get it on,
In the Capital,
Get it on, get it on,
And it's tropical,
Get it on, get it on,
In the Capital,
Get it on, get it on,
And it's tropical.
