That back and forth on guitar between Don Felder and Joe Walsh is arguably the greatest instrumental conversation in the history of music. Legendary.

RIP Glenn Frey & Randy Meisner. I can listen to this song every single day.

EAGLES are my favorite band. Thanks for all the great music ! They ROCK

The individual talent of these guys is off the charts. The Eagles don't have a bad song❤ Peace out ✌️ ☮️

The greatest Eagles songs ever

Don Henley was a member of Linda Rondstat's band. When he expressed an interest in starting his own band, she not only gave her blessing, she helped build the band that became the Eagles.

Actually It was Glen Frey's idea to form the Eagles. Henley has stated this multiple times calling Glen "The Capitan of the Ship" and "It was Glen's band from the start".

The audience tells you right away what a landmark song this is.

I actually cried when I just heard this. I've heard this song 300 times and I wish we could hear more material like this again.

This song has some of the strongest lyrics in any song ever, "they stab it with their steely knives but cannot kill the beast" and " you can checkout any time you like but you can never leave". Really hard to top those lyrics.

OMG, the greatest guitar duo in the history of rock!!!

One of the greatest rock songs so beautiful. Classical rock music, I love Don Henley's voice. Joe Walsh is gorgeous. I love many Eagles songs.

What a pleasure to watch your smile as you listen to real music ♥️

Don Henley was the encompass for which their success was founded on...❤

Pure joy.... looking exceptionally beautiful today ❤

I never tire of watching people react to this for the first time!! I love it! Great choice and great reaction. 🌺✌️

This is probably one of the most fast and best guitar performances in any song. The lead singer (DON HENLEY) is one of the two best singer/drummer's ever!!! He has an amazing solo career too!!!!

Joe Walsh is more of a better solo artist. For me the one that put Eagles on top is Don Felder. He wrote all the music for Hotel California including the bass, drum patterns and guitar.

Glad you enjoyed it. One of my all time favorites.

Don Henley's voice is still just as good today as it was back then, and the synergy between the band and Jackson Browne back in the day was awesome as JB wrote a few of the Eagles hits. Interesting backstory of its own there too.

Great Reaction to this Classic and Awesome Band...... All the Band Members were so talented.... Everyone would take turns singing lead on songs and everyone sang harmony......

It's MAGIC

my beautifull lady..this is a song about becoming famous......and wanting to back to when they were not famous..that is what this is about

Hiya Sarah! And thanks for another great show ive always enjoyed your work...so Hotel California eh, awesome and great pick! That incredible album came out during my high school years they literally blew up the music scene with this album as well as all their others. 👏👏👏👍👍👍

Before you even seen it, I know you love this song. Even more it will be the best song you ever heard!! This song has one of the best guitar solos ever written too!!

If you love harmony, try the Eagles "Seven Bridges Road". My favorite is "Wasted Time", lots of tears fell on that record...

Yes, Wasted Time and The Last Resort, two lyrical gems on the one album

The point of the song is about people coming to Hollywood to be successful and getting entrapped by the fancy lifestyle etc. and not being able to get out of it. This song is iconic in many ways including the drummer as the lead singer but it is also one of the very few songs that the guitar solo is at the end. Joe Walsh's face when he is playing opposite Don Felder is priceless! Thanks! with

It's a great song and another personal favorite Eagles song of mine is: Desperado, though all their songs are among the best written.

The dual guitars at the end make it worth the wait.🤩🤩

Great reaction, pure talent, just them. My generation had some incredible creative music. Miss it.

Sweet Randy with the high notes. 🥹 RIP.

Take It Easy by Eagles is a must listen. Love your reactions Sarah. ❤

Such a talented band, amazing performance..........

You need to hear the eagles, seven Bridges road!! Trust me!! You will love it!!

The Eagles can thank Linda Ronstadt for helping them to gain a foothold and get their start. She is another GOAT singer!

Love your expressions.looked like you enjoyed the song.

Queen's drummer also sings - A LOT.

Absolutely LOVE your reactions Sarah. The joy you express at this song is so uplifting. I've listened to this for around fifty years, still my favourite (along with Desperado)

Yeah, I'm always amazed at drummers who are lead singers... You have to be in top shape to do that.

IS THIS REAL?....YES. IS THERE ANYTHING BETTER?....NOPE Saw them live in early 2000's they're unbelievable, every song is a banger.

The song is an allegory on coming to California and getting involved in the music business, and how it traps you. "I was thinking to myself, this could be heaven or this could be hell." "You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave!"

Live recordings are amazing sometimes...There is another one that I discovered from the recent past. A band I had never hear of before called The Gathering, whose lead singer Anneke van Giesbergen is/was so incredible and real lwegend.. She left the band to become a mother and then, start a solo career. The song I recommend comes from her ferewell tour with The Gathering. And the audience is fantastic, too...This is fun! And hold onto your hat!.. The song is called "On Most Surfaces" from The Gathering- On Most Surfaces (A Noise Severe DVD) live 2007

Beautiful reaction ❤

He is not the only one, and neither the first drummer that is the vocalist. For example, Phil Collins was vocalist of Genessis after Peter Gabriel left the band, and probably the best drummer vocalist in history was Karen Carpenter. In young generations you can find Paulina Villarreal, composer, drummer and sometimes vocalist of The Warnings.

Eagles are so deep in catalog, it’s amazing. Harmonies to die for, guitars that mezmerize, and each band member are miraculously talented. ❤ PLAY MORE PLEASE!

The singer Don Henley also had a solo career. The heart of the matter, The last worthless evening are a couple react to some l think you’ll like them

This is the music I grew up on. The Eagles were a great 70's band with so many hit songs. They were known for their great harmonies. "Take It Easy", "Lyin' Eyes", "Witchy Woman", "Desperado", "Already Gone", "Best of My Love", "One Of These Nights", "Take It To The Limit", "New Kid In Town" etc. Before they went solo they were the back up band for Linda Ronstadt.

Feels like Reggae, what a coincidence the working title to this song before the lyrics were written was "Mexican Reggae". Good ear!

I heard those two guitars eloped after this show.

The song is really about the excess’s and trappings of California and the lifestyle there.Getting caught up in all that goes with fame be it in the music industry or Hollywood.Definitely one of the best songs ever, and the band is fantastic,great work.

Eagles not blocking! Let's hope it stays that way. Maybe Don has arrived at the 21th century? RIP Glenn.🙏

Chord changes and chord resolutions. Done right every human being instinctively knows, regardless of language culture or age. (beside perfect lyrics) Arpeggio duet at the end ain't too shabby either. And what about the 1/2 second delay between "you can never leave" and the start of the solo? Oh, yeah Eagles mix quality in live performances equal or better than studio!

one of the many classics ! They came to the UK. many years ago and my wife and I managed to get tickets to see them in Yorkshire England, about an hour from our home. Such was their popularity that the roads were gridlocked, and as we were running along the road to the Stadium, we heard the opening intro to " Hotel California " and by the time we actually got in it was over !!!!! I was gutted !

From a time when they didn't get in a hurry. I saw them in the mid '90's and they were every bit as good. Fantastic. That was a bucket list event for me.

Theres no way witchcraft can produce such perfection. Its how the music makes one feel. Its like in the 70s 80s and 90s for hip hop, every thing just naturally fell into place musically and took us on journeys that still havent ended. We were blessed to " be there." Nice honest reaction.

You are my favorite ❤reactor!!! You're just honest, and open, and refreshing. Thank you for being you. Have a lovely day, Sarah!! 😊

Finally! Every single other YT reactor to this song totally missed the Reggae influence in this song except you! And I'd actually say that this is more than just "influenced" Every instrument has a reggae feel including the vocal cadence.. I think the reason so many people miss it at first is just because the lyrics are the one thing that is U.S. culture influenced.

Did you know strawberry alarm clock lead singer is also the drummer. Song incense and pepper mints

You are so beautiful. It was a pleasure seeing you enjoy the song. TY.

Don Felder, the guy who wrote the music for this song, also taught Tom Petty how to play guitar in Florida before he became an Eagle. When he was fired from the band for asking what was being done with his share of the money Don Hendley and Glenn Fry tried to cheat him out of his money.

Other singing frummers from that Era: Queen''s guy, The Band, Frankie Valli and the 4 Seasons, Rare Earth, and quite a few more..But we're freaks nowadays...It's kinda a lost art. Record-perfect performance here, and the " Hotel California" LP is fantastic all the way through...3 number 1 hits off it.
