"Cuba" is a 1978 song by French musical group Gibson Brothers, released as the first single from their fourth album of the same name (1979). It was the group's first charting single: In the US, "Cuba", went to #81 on the US Billboard Hot 100,[2] and #9 on the Billboard Dance chart.[3] Outside the US, upon its original release, it reached number one in Finland, and was a top 30 hit in Belgium, the Netherlands and West Germany. It also peaked at number 41 in the UK, however, following the success of their follow-up top 10 hit songs "Ooh, What a Life" and "Que Sera Mi Vida (If You Should Go)", it was re-released in 1980 as a double A side single with album track "Better Do It Salsa", reaching number 12 in the UK.[4] However, its chart performance did not improve in the US due in large part to the anti Disco Backlash in the States at the time.
