    Warm smell of *colitas*
    Rising up through the *air*
    Up ahead in the *distance*
    I saw a shimmering *light*
    My head grew heavy and my sight grew *dim*
    I had to stop for the *night*
    There she stood in the *doorway*
    I heard the mission *bell*
    And I was thinkin' to *myself*
    "This could be heaven or this could be *hell"*
    Then she lit up a *candle*
    And she showed me the *way*
    There were voices down the *corridor*
    I thought I heard them *say*
    *"Welcome to the Hotel California"*
    Such a lovely *place*
    _(such a lovely place)_
    Such a lovely *face*
    *"Plenty of room at the Hotel California"*
    Any time of *year*
    _(any time of year)_
    You can find it *here"*
    Her mind is *Tiffany-twisted*
    She got the *Mercedes-Benz, uh*
    She got a lot of *pretty,* pretty *boys*
    That she calls *friends*
    How they dance in the *courtyard*
    Sweet summer *sweat*
    Some dance to *remember*
    Some dance to *forget*
    So I called up the *Captain*
    "Please bring me my *wine"*
    He said, "We haven't had that spirit here since *1969"*
    And still, those voices are calling from far *away*
    Wake you up in the middle of the *night*
    Just to hear them *say*
    *"Welcome to the Hotel California"*
    Such a lovely *place*
    _(such a lovely place)_
    Such a lovely *face*
    *"They're livin' it up at the Hotel California"*
    What a nice *surprise*
    _(what a nice surprise)_
    Bring your *alibis"*
    _Mirrors on the ceiling_
    _The pink champagne on ice_
    _And she said, "We are all just prisoners here_
    _Of our own device"_
    _And in the master's chambers_
    _They gathered for the feast_
    _They stab it with their steely knives_
    _But they just can't kill the beast_
    Last thing I *remember*
    I was running for the *door*
    I had to find the passage *back*
    To the place I was *before*
    "Relax, " said the night *man*
    "We are programmed to *receive"*
    "You can check out any time you *like*

    On a dark desert highway
    Cool wind in my hair
    Warm smell of colitas
    Rising up through the air
    Up ahead in the distance
    I saw a shimmering light
    My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
    I had to stop for the night
    There she stood in the doorway
    I heard the mission bell
    And I was thinkin' to myself
    "This could be heaven or this could be hell"
    Then she lit up a candle
    And she showed me the way
    There were voices down the corridor
    I thought I heard them say
    "Welcome to the Hotel California
    Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
    Such a lovely face
    Plenty of room at the Hotel California
    Any time of year (any time of year)
    You can find it here"
    Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
    She got the Mercedes-Benz, uh
    She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
    That she calls friends
    How they dance in the courtyard
    Sweet summer sweat
    Some dance to remember
    Some dance to forget
    So I called up the Captain
    "Please bring me my wine"
    He said, "We haven't had that spirit here
    Since 1969"
    And still, those voices are calling
    From far away
    Wake you up in the middle of the night
    Just to hear them say
    "Welcome to the Hotel California
    Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
    Such a lovely face
    They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
    What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
    Bring your alibis"
    Mirrors on the ceiling
    The pink champagne on ice
    And she said, "We are all just prisoners here
    Of our own device"
    And in the master's chambers
    They gathered for the feast
    They stab it with their steely knives
    But they just can't kill the beast
    Last thing I remember
    I was running for the door
    I had to find the passage back
    To the place I was before
    "Relax, " said the night man
    "We are programmed to receive
    You can check out any time you like
    But you can never leave!"

      Don Henley is an amazing vocalist, and a solid drummer, but it's no harder to play drums and sing than it is to play guitar and sing, or keyboards, or bass. When you are an experienced player, the inclusion of an instrument does not change the abilities.

      @@mikeuher3755 I think you're right in that it's equal in difficulty to play any instrument and sing at the same time because what you've got to do is learn how to separate the two, and after that it's fairly 'easy'. However, one challenge you have when you're drumming while singing is that your movements are a lot bigger and include the whole body, which can affect your voice in the same way singing while dancing can
