It was released as a single, with the album's title track as the b-side, and reached #49 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100, but performed much better on the Adult Contemporary chart, reaching #5. "Mexico" has appeared on many of Taylor's live and compilation albums. It has been covered by Jimmy Buffett and Alex de Grassi. ==Lyrics and music== The lyrics of "Mexico" describe a dream of enjoying a night in a Mexican border town. It is one of several songs on ''Gorilla'' that uses a stream of consciousness technique to describe the singer's fantasy, others including "Music" and "You Make It Easy."〔 It is a happy song that contrasts Taylor's sad, sensitive image. "Mexico" has a "buoyant" rhythm. Its music incorporates features of country rock music. Graham Nash and David Crosby sing backup vocals on the song.〔 Critic Doung Pringle describes Nash's harmony vocals as "lovely."
