      Henley & Frey primarily, but yeah Meisner had 'take it to the limit' and Walsh had his solo career

    “You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave”. An AWESOME lyric I’ve used many times in many situations.

    • @kingscorpion7346

      and it's made me wonder why (as far as we know) no one has approached them about making a horror movie out of the song...

    • @ladygothic7699

      That line reminds me of “1408” where the main character is told he can checkout any time

    The Don Felder/Joe Walsh guitar at the end just gets better every time I hear it.

  • @marshallbrummel1860
    @marshallbrummel1860 Před 2 měsíci +11

    The producers wanted to cut the guitar solo/duo at the end because they thought it was too long. The Eagles fought for it and it made a perfect ending to an amazing song.

  • @seanstevenson9891

    The guitar duel at the end, that's all l can think to call it, is spectacular and it gets me everytime.

    Best lyric in this song by far "you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave".

    • @phyl1042
      @phyl1042 Před měsícem

      And every reactor just glosses over the meaning. Nowadays does check out any time not mean die? Maybe it was different back in the 70's.

  • @EastPeakSlim
    @EastPeakSlim Před 2 měsíci +11

    The guitar duet with Don Felder on the twin-neck Gibson SG (6 and 12 strings) and Joe Walsh on the Fender Telecaster is iconic. You can tell they rehearsed a lot and put out a great live performance.

  • @carolbrown605
    @carolbrown605 Před 2 měsíci +9

    What I love about this group is that there really wasn't a lead singer. My favorite Eagles song btw. Great choice for the first time listening to them❤

  • @ce3586
    @ce3586 Před měsícem +3

    Born into The Eagles. This was the song my "mother" listened to on repeat when pregnant with me. It was said that I should have come out of the womb singing this. Extraordinary and a hallmark. Next: "People Everyday" by Arrested Development!

  • @user-br2sd7ul1j
    @user-br2sd7ul1j Před měsícem +2

    All the Eagles are lead singers. Rule is "If you write it, you sing it." There is no Hotel California, it is a metaphor for the music/ movie industry, filled with greed, sex, money, fame, lust. "You can check out, but you can never leave,..." what a line for the industry....caught up in the greed of the industry. What wonderful song !

  • @russelllane7551

    It’s about addiction The girl in the doorway is the enticement to try it . ( the hotel that you can never leave & the beast that can’t be killed , the alibi you bring are the excuses you use The dance is the real reason you use - to remember that high your chasing or forget the pain in your life .

  • @Cmireflect
    @Cmireflect Před měsícem

    Fun fact: it was this song/album that brought about the very first “PARENTAL ADVISORY” label on an album. religious groups were unhinged with this Eagles album. With so much hype about it being evil and even has folks claiming evil hidden messages could be heard when the album played in reverse. Of course these reasons alone myself and millions of other teens bought this album.

  • @joedavis6029
    @joedavis6029 Před měsícem

    Man, I grew up with this music. I never have understood that "some dance to remember some dance to forget." You nailed it for me. I have never had the poetry/lyric thing in my brain. I am pretty literal when I read/hear things. It never was a "poetry is stupid" thing, I just don't have what it takes. Used to, I was little jealous of those who do get it, but everyone has their groove. I watch these reactions and learn so much more than what I came into the room with me. Very cool.

    When I was a young man way back in the 60s, we’ll before this song was written, a popular sign that could be seen in many bars was “Some Drink To Remember, Some Drink To Forget”. Don’t know if that’s still so today, tho, as I haven’t been in a bar in many decades ~

    Great reaction, KIaBR! I came of age in the late 60's - early 70's when this music was typical of what was on the radio. You would enjoy "Comfortably Numb" live at the Pulse concert by Pink Floyd. It's rabbit hole so deep you may never return.

  • @imavibe
    @imavibe Před 2 měsíci

    Love it! Seems so long ago and still just a moment ago. Another band with "Stevie Nicks" as the lead singer and, has ties to these guys is, "Fleetwood Mac". If you haven't listened or looked in on "The Midnight Special" Live 1976 "Rhiannon" it is legendary. Stevie Nicks also went solo and "Edge Of Seventeen" Live 1983 is super fab. ✌

  • @ajruther67
    @ajruther67 Před 2 měsíci +1

    This band has 3 lead singers, depending on the song and who wrote it. There are other bands that have more than one singer. To name a few:
    The Beatles - 2
    The Cars - 2
    Earth, wind and Fire - 2
    Fleetwood Mac - 3

  • @fightman49
    @fightman49 Před 2 měsíci

    Ha! You nailed sir. That has always been one of my all time favorite lyrics. Another one of my favorites is coincidentally from another Eagles song titled “Saturday Night” and is also coincidentally about dancing. The song is sung from the perspective of a man wistfully looking back on his younger days and maybe feeling a little lost. At one point he says (sings) “Someone show me how to tell, the Dancer from The Dance.” Very poignant in the context of the song. Keep up the good work!
    If you do decide to check it out, do the studio version. It has the best harmonies mix and clearest lyrics. There is another great lyric in this song (I just listened to it again). I challenge you to pick it out. Ha!

    Is there a more famous guitar solo duet in rock-n-roll history? I don't think so. I do believe "Hotel California" is one of the top American rock-n-roll songs of all time, along with Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Free Bird" imo.

    I don't think there's an Eagles song I don't like, and their range is incredible. Listen to Seven Bridges Road and then listen to Those Shoes. And if you're going to dive into the 70s music Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin are definite musts, to begin with, that is. Time from Pink Floyd is a great song.

    You have to imagine you’re riding down a 2 lane highway, way out in the Southern California desert. It’s getting dark and you’re tired and suddenly you come upon a hotel with a hostess and all a weary traveler could hope for. Then things begin to get weird and go sideways. You try desperately to get out, but there’s no escaping THE TWILIGHT ZONE. (With a definite Spanish flavor to the music.)

    @StormyPeak Před 2 měsíci +2

    I posted about a song you might like. But wish to add this about Hotel California.
    Some people see it as just a creepy ghost type song about a real but haunted hotel.
    But it's a comment about how the entertainment business in California traps some people and even if you get out of the dark side of that industry with it's drugs, sex, and outlandish lifestyles, and you can leave it all behind -- the experiences remain with you.
    Thus the verse,
    'You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave'
