Was Kokomo written for the movie Cocktail?
“Kokomo” is a song by the American rock band the Beach Boys from the 1988 film Cocktail and album Still Cruisin’. Written by John Phillips, Scott McKenzie, Mike Love, and Terry Melcher, its lyrics describe two lovers taking a trip to a relaxing place on Kokomo, a utopic island off the Florida Keys.
Is Kokomo a real island?
As far as we can tell, there were no actual islands—off the Florida Keys or elsewhere—in 1988 that were named Kokomo. There is a Kokomo, Indiana and there’s also a Kokomo “island” in Florida, but it is a tiki bar named for the song, so it came after. It seems that Kokomo is more a state of mind than a real place.
