I don’t know what year but I think it’s from the Hell Freezes Over concert but gives me chills every time especially Felders solo. Just a lot of emotion in that version
Most of the lyrics are metaphorical. It's about the music industry, Southern California lifestyle, excess, addiction, and materialism. Once you enter that life, it is hard to escape.
This is pure talent..Everyone of these guys are lead singers. I saw them last year, 2023 in California..Glenn Frey passed away, he was surely missed. Oh I remember seeing them in concert at Oakland Day on The Green when I was a teen. What a fabulous time to grow up. We 60 something year olds are cool people. We were cool then..I loved how you really understood the song. It's a trap is right! You gotta listen to other Eagles songs, Take It Easy, Witchy Woman...a whole slew of them and all great!!
What a great time it was to grow up with these guys and all the others in the 60s and 70s. The soundtrack of my life, right there!! If you like the singing drummer, you're loving Don Henley. Don got a little edgy in the 80s and you should listen to "Gimme what you got". Great message still relevant today!!
I graduated from high school in 1970 so I was brought up right through the best effing musical era! Great stuff like this every day on the radio or stereo if you were lucky ☮️👵🏼💙
My all time favorite band, my dad raised me on them! All members of the band sing various songs but Don Henley, who sings this song is my favorite! This performance was filmed at the Capital Center in Landover, MD, 2 years after I was born and 12 years later attended my very first concert there, Poison and Warrant….lol. The Eagles are touring at this point or soon.
The greatest song by the greatest band ever. It’s about the excesses of Hollywood. Most of these guys had solo careers or other bands of their own. So much talent on that stage!
Sooo many memories associated with The Eagles! They could certainly tell a story like none other. They were considered to be a Supergroup, especially when Joe Walsh came on board, not to mention that Henley and others used to backup Linda Ronstadt. There is more that I hope you delve into. 💜
The Eagles…one of the greatest bands of all time. Their lineup was a combination of legendary musicians. And all of them sang lead on different songs. All so talented. Definitely check out “I Can’t Tell You Why”
.. This is one explanation of the song Hotel California.. This song is about the [Halfway House] or rehabilitation center of the rich and famous drug and alcohol abusers known as the [Hotel California]. The hotel is for the rich and famous drug and alcohol abusers. "And I was thinking to myself [this could be heaven or this could be hell]." This refers to what he will be subjecting himself to during the very painful withdrawal process. And the hours-long epileptic-like seizures his body will be going through to rid the body of its drugs and alcohol in his system. "Her mind was Tiffany twisted she got the Mercedes Benz. She has lots of pretty pretty boys she calls friends." Tiffany's is world-famous for its fine and very expensive jewelry. She is wealthy with very expensive taste in cars and jewelry. And her friends are actors, models and rich kids. "How they danced in the courtyard Sweet summer sweat. Some dance to remember Some dance to forget." This refers to the painful and gut-wrenching withdrawal process one must go through to rid themselves of the drugs and alcohol they have in their system. "So I called out the captain "please bring me my wine" we haven't had that spirit here since 1969." Refers to the Woodstock era of "Sex, Drugs and Rock & Roll." "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 what a lovely place what a lovely face. Plenty of room in the Hotel California. They living it up at the hotel California what a nice surprise bring your alibis." In every halfway house or rehabilitation center. The staff along with past drug and alcohol abusers who are counselors and to are part of the staff...Always welcome you with open arms anytime day or night. "What a nice surprise, bring your alibis." This refers to the many excuses the abusers will give to the staff. As to the many reasons why they became addicts. "Mirrors on the ceiling, 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 their feast they stab it with their steely knives but they just can't kill the beast." The last thing I remember 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 anytime you like but you can never leave!" Mirrors on the ceiling refers to the big room where all the addicts gather to receive their drug substitutes to ween them off of the hard drugs. Pink champagne on ice refers to the drug substitute 'Methadone" which is a liquid and is pink in color. The drug and alcohol addicts are prisoners of their own self-destruction. And they themselves are to blame for letting themselves become drug and alcohol abusers. The Beast is the "Drug and Alcohol Addiction" an addict will have to live with for the rest of their lives. The addict will never be rid of the addiction. It will be a constant battle for the rest of their lives to live drug and alcohol-free. You can check out anytime you like but you can never leave refers to "Once an addict always an addict!"
You have Glen Frey (Fry) on acoustic gutiar, Joe Walsh and Don Felder on lead guitars, Randy Miesner on Bass, and Don Henley on drums. They are all LEAD SINGERS. Henley having many of the hits, as well as Frey. But their biggest hit on the charts was Take It Too The Limit, sung by Miesner, their bassist. Felder rarely sings, but his guitar work makes up for it. Felder wrote the music for this song, and Henley, leaving the Whiskey a gogo club on the sunset strip one night for a long drive across the desert to look for peyote in Needles CA the next morning. On his way he played this guitar riff over and over, passing cactus, empty roads, and lonely motels. He wrote the song about losing you innocence. Going from adolescence to adulthood and how once you start to experience that adult life with all it's perks and responsibilities and how you can never go back to being a kid, you just cannot UNLEARN your lessons.
Super good reaction. You cannot go wrong with any of their tunes. Growing up these guys came to "Legendary" status early on. The music that good. Hope you can find yourself a way to check them out completely.
when people from my generation wanted to look up to cool people from previous generations, it was usually those who listened to eagles and hotel California and that kind of jam. Such a classic and such a masterpiece! great stuff :)
Soundgarden 4th of july ruclips.net/video/EU4L6THYAbM/видео.html Not a actually 4th July song, he was so high he thought he saw fireworks and it was 4th July. I still like to listen to it every 4th I`m a Soundgarden fan. And this is one of the heaviest sounding grunge songs.
One of the most imagery inducing songs ever written. Notice that the lyrics contain mention of all five senses, of touch, taste, sound, sight, and smell, to heighten the immersion of the listener. You are drawn into the story as the narrator is drawn, with the trap being sprung on the narrator and the listener at the same time. All the while, the music carries you with a seductive, slightly southwestern, and slightly eerie, vibe . It's near-perfect storytelling.
What a lovely piece of Americana for the 4th of July❤🤍💙 I love the Eagles. Don Henley has that beautiful raspy voice, and the rest of the band is fantastic. RIP Glenn Frey✌
Eagles songs would make a great theater type musical about the excess, style, and vibe of the 70's. The story of a new kid in town and his trip into the Hotel California.
Love this! Thanks for the great reaction! My favorite from that concert is Take It To The Limit with Randy Meisner, the bass player, on vocals. He has the voice of an angel! ☮️❤️😎
and it's actually "she got the Mercedes 'bends'" -- like divers get the bends when they come up too fast - terrible cramps, dizzy/disoriented/sick - right after the line you can actually here him grunt "UNHH"
One of the greatest bands ever when you talk about the collection of talent. Many bands are carried by one artist and once that artist breaks off on their own solo career, the rest of the band members fade away. Not The Eagles. Don Henley probably had the best solo career of the bunch but Glenn Frey also had a few number 1 hits too. Please check out Don Henley's "The Boys Of Summer".
It’s not very often a band will let their drummer be the lead singer. Frontmen are usually expected to run around the stage and dance. With a drummer as a singer, all you can do is cross your fingers, and hope you have a forgiving audience.
This is just one of the best songs ever. btw Phil Collins was also the singer and drummer of the band Genesis, Brilliant band. You gotta listen to this
Well, the paler folks knew this about 20 years ago. Something to think about...riding the wave is one thing, be true to the music. All the best. Cheers.
I would like to recommend some old-school hip-hop for you to check out. Run DMC "It's Like That" from 1983 Newcleus "Jam On It" from 1984 A Tribe Called Quest "Jazz/Buggin' Out" from 1991 MC Breed "There Ain't No Future In Yo Frontin' " from 1991 Thanks man!
Joe Walsh, The Guy With The Bandana On His Head. He Is One Of The Best Guitarist Ever. The Other Gut With The Double-Guitarist Was Really Good To BUT He Was NO Joe.

A great song, great reaction ❤🙏
I personally love their song called " I can't Tell you why"
I don’t know what year but I think it’s from the Hell Freezes Over concert but gives me chills every time especially Felders solo. Just a lot of emotion in that version
the great Timothy B. Schmitt!
I saw them in Ca and this was the opening song . Very good concert !
Such a good song. Reminds me of summers growing up.
One of my all time favourite songs. This and Dire Straits Sultans of Swing.
Loved your reaction and you got the drummer and the lyrics. Give another listen to my fav is . Take it to the limit. Those lyrics ❤️
Most of the lyrics are metaphorical. It's about the music industry, Southern California lifestyle, excess, addiction, and materialism. Once you enter that life, it is hard to escape.
Knew itttt
Tune 👌

I looooooove the solos in this song. You can feel them feeling it.
Yay Finally. I can't tell you why live from this show please. Great reaction as usual my friend and Peace out 🙏 ✌️ ☮️
🙏🙏🙏
Don Henley the drummer said this song is " a journey from innocence to experience, that's all."
I graduated from high school in 1970 so I was brought up right through the best effing musical era! Great stuff like this every day on the radio or stereo if you were lucky ☮️👵🏼💙
💙💙
Every member were craftsman of their instruments, and all fantastic vocalists. One of the best live bands I’ve ever seen.
Haven't seen a bad reaction to this song yet. This is my favorite Eagles song, and one of my favorite songs period. Great choice.❤❤❤
🙏🙏🔥🔥
this is a really deep metaphoric song...
Warning the eagles copyright strike ALL reactions.
The Don Felder/Joe Walsh guitar at the end gets better every time I hear it.
Thank you for this Mr. Stax. Starting my day with your wonderful reaction. Blessings my brother. 💛🙏🤠👍💯

Thank you so much
The Eagles paint a picture like Bob Ross. But, with music instead of light. You can almost taste a margarita.
🙏💙🔥
Great reaction of a great live version. Love the earlier rock bands that paved the way for what we have now. Please react to some of The Doors!!
Thank you so much!!

Soundgarden 4th of july
ruclips.net/video/EU4L6THYAbM/видео.html
Not a actually 4th July song, he was so high he thought he saw fireworks and it was 4th July. I still like to listen to it every 4th I`m a Soundgarden fan. And this is one of the heaviest sounding grunge songs.

Happy 4th
If you like live versions, check out Queen at Live Aid (1985). It's considered one of *the* best live performances ever recorded!
Will do for sure
What a lovely piece of Americana for the 4th of July❤🤍💙
I love the Eagles. Don Henley has that beautiful raspy voice, and the rest of the band is fantastic. RIP Glenn Frey✌

Eagles songs would make a great theater type musical about the excess, style, and vibe of the 70's. The story of a new kid in town and his trip into the Hotel California.

Always loved this song 7 bridges road is another great eagles song
The song is a metaphor for vices/addictions and a certain lifestyle
🙏
Groovy song thank you for posting real good reaction do it more eagles❤❤❤❤❤❤

Yes soundgarden 4th of July good song.
DOWN lies deep one.

Look at “House of the rising sun” if you watch the video it hard to believe that voice came from that lead singer
Love this! Thanks for the great reaction! My favorite from that concert is Take It To The Limit with Randy Meisner, the bass player, on vocals. He has the voice of an angel! ☮️❤️😎
No problem!

This is a great song. I don't think there's an Eagles song I don't like. I love their range, too. I mean compare Seven Bridges Road to Those Shoes.
