    "comment": "“Acapulco 78” is track number three from Fase’s sole album, Ciudad Lluvia, released in Mexico in 2003. Fase was a Mexican electropop trio—vocalist Alma Velasco alongside brothers Peter and Hans Warner—who masterfully blended elements of trip-hop, house, Latin rhythms, and electronic pulse to craft their distinct, atmospheric sound.\n\n“Acapulco 78” unfolds like a sun-drenched daydream. The lyrics paint a poetic scene: the singer wakes and still feels as though they're dreaming, hearing the ocean’s call and feeling the salty breeze’s kiss as they fling open the window. There’s a sense of idealized peace—no dirty dishes in the kitchen, no troubling news—just dancing, music in the streets, and a world where “everything has its place.”\n\nAs the day progresses, the mood remains light and celebratory: a stroll to the beach before sunset, the sun calling, reflections seen in other people’s eyes, playful anticipation of meeting someone in a bar, perhaps over a martini, and the rising moon turning the world into “a carnival.” The song captures a longing for escape, joy, and belonging in a serene, almost cinematic moment.\n\nMusically, the track runs about 3 minutes and 48 seconds and is set at a brisk tempo of approximately 157 BPM, in the key of F minor—edges toward upbeat, but still carries that dreamy, electronic-lush vibe.\n\nhttps://open.spotify.com/track/0W6hdHUDorCBQH6kDJNSiZ",
