She posted the first ad. He responded. They both want the same things but don't tell each other. It's just about keeping the lines of communication open in a relationship and not making assumptions about your partner or you're doomed to a dull life.

You look at it too meta. When that woman puts a ad in the paper, she was describing herself and what she was looking for. It’s not to knock the guy down. She’s not into yoga and she wants someone with half a brain. She wasn’t expecting her man to read that ad. To me the song is more about how important communication is in a relationship.

*She's* the one that wrote "if you're not into yoga." She wrote the first ad (in the first verse), that he responded to without knowing it was her. It's not the greatest song ever, but it has a catchy chorus you can sing along to, and an amusing story with a mildly clever twist. It also has a moral about relationships and how lack of communication can lead you into a rut because you don't really know each other. And on soft rock and pop stations back then it got played about 5 times per hour. I may be exaggerating, but not by *that* much.

Maybe, due to poor communication, she thought that about him but i think it shows they didn't really communicate well with each other so they didn't truly know much about each other; because they liked what each other wrote. Then, after meeting and having a real talk, they realized they didn't know these things about each other, which they were looking for all along. They were pleasantly surprised and decided to give it another go. Yeah, i probably made too much of it, ok? c'mon, back off, guys. I'm just trying to live and insert my bs, too.

The song makes you think the story is about a man unhappy in his relationship so he is looking for someone else. But the swerve of the song is that the problem wasn't the person he was with, it was a lack of communication. Had the couple just been honest about the things they liked and wanted in a relationship, they could have avoided the whole thing and been happy the whole time. And it took these events to wake them up.

I think you missed something here. She wrote the original ad and SHE liked Pina Coladas, loved the rain, didn't like yoga, and wanted someone that was smart (or had at least half a brain 😁). He responded with his own ad saying, "Yeah, I like Pina Coladas, getting caught in the rain ...". So, both of them were looking for something different, but their REAL problem was, a lack of communication, which is why MANY relationships fail. It sounds bad that both were looking elsewhere, but it seems like they were not married, and just coming to the conclusion that they were not happy, when all the time, they just didn't communicate, probably because they didn't want to make waves. What they learned in the end was, that's what makes a relationship work ... communicating.

The women he goes to meet was his women he had at home. They had been posting ads to each other whilst under the same roof... And learnt new things about one another. I love this song... Never picked up on the lyrics too much until I started watching reactions 😅

All I can think if when I hear this is the movie Dirty Work. They're about to have a bar fight and Chris Farley goes to the jukebox and says something like "Street fight man, G7!!!!!!!" Then someone says, "You just pressed G8". Then this song comes on and they have to have a bar fight to this song lol. R.I.P. Chris Farley.

Rupert Holmes has also written songs for other singers and produced for bands. He also won two Tony awards for his Play writing, and wrote 56 episodes of a TV show he developed called "Remember WENN". He also has written a Novel. So don't let anyone say he was a 1 Hit Wonder.

I’m old so I can help with that classic old expression “if you have half a brain” Back in the day (the 70s) it simply meant that you’re not a fool or an idiot or you’re mildly smart or wise. It was often used in relation to some kind of action and may also convey general ambition. Ie. “when he re-paints that truck if he has half a brain he’ll use 2 coats of primer”… So glad you guys reacted to this 70s classic tune. Cheers !

i see the song more as a hypothetical conversation that lovers have about what if he or she did this or that but in the end the love is there. philosophical.

Back in the days before social media (or the internet), one of the ways people used to meet was through "Personals" ads in the newspaper. They could be interesting to read, even if you weren't looking to find somebody, just to see what people were looking for and how they had expressed it. The "if you have half a brain" part was in the ad she had placed originally (the one he responded to in the second verse) - it means she's tired of people who have no brain and would be happy with somebody who at least had half of one. They had both made assumptions about the other without seeing the reality, that they already had exactly the right person for them.

Yeah, Yoga was not the same back in the 70's as it is today! LOL! And it cracks me up that everyone is happy with the ending not realizing that these two where ready to cheat on each other! LOL!

the first time they do the ad in the paper it was her that posted it looking for someone else. 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. The second time it was his response to her ad

The whole point of the songs is that even when people live together, they can have terrible communication. However... in this instance... they both actually loved what each had to offer, even though neither of them outwardly knew it. Relationships are tough, and sometimes we as humans love each other, but fall out of love be cause we forget each other's passions.

Way back in the early day when I first got on the interweb and found YT, someone had made a video to this song using The Sims 2. For the time it was very good and fit the song perfectly. It's still available on YT.
