| Eagles – Hotel California Lyrics | 18 years ago |

"It's definitely about drugs addiction, however it's a great song with a lovely rhythm ... " Yeah Rionative, we dont love the people who wrote this song or who did the drugs, just what they produced. Nice gesture, pinhead. This song was written by druggies, and may have druggy references, but to suggest that this song is "About drugs" and that alone is shallow and is patronizing and belittling to the musicians who toiled for many years developing this song and battling addiction. Comment all you like, but i dont think anyone will truly know what this song is about. Apparently Hotel California is also an undeclosed site where terrorists are taken to undergo US interrogation. i'm sure lighting up a candle could point to a J, but i think many many other parts of this song... mirrors on the celing, pink champaigne on ice... all of this imagery has more meaning than simply doing a line or smoking off a fat blunt and then partying with pretty women and your friends. Nice try, though. |

| America – Sister Golden Hair Lyrics | 18 years ago |

"Well I tried to make it sunday, but I got so damn depressed" - tries to be more religious and faithful towards her and the situation, but cant. note that he uses "Damn", a curse word, in the sentence. "I ain't ready for the altar, but i do agree there's times when a woman sure can be a friend of mine" .. he says right there that he isnt ready to get married. why would he want to? - he friggin helped write some of the greatest soft/folk rock songs ever recorded during his era. - wants a woman as a friend, and maybe more, but no long term commitment? i think "Sister Golden Hair Surprise" is more of just.. a name for her.. i guess she was blonde.. and a surprise cause maybe every time he saw her, he was excited. |

I love how people assume that a song is about a drug based on the time period and possibly the musicians. Oh, ok. So one of America's most well-known songs is about heroin? Lobotomize yourself. There's been some awesome interpretations here, though. I always thought of it as writing about an escape from civilization and mankind. The verses, especially the last, suggest that a desert contains just as much diversity and wonder as mankind has created. Whether or not the writers were on substances is besides the point. I dont think the drug heroine itself is a desert and oceans and flies and stuff that anyone would automatically pluck out and say "oh yeah that reminds me of heroin!" |

it should be "the kind that you find when you mind your own business" not mysteries. i'm pretty sure. cool song. in my opinion the song seems more like a girl that was spontaneous and truly unique and because of that the songwriter adored her yet she was encased in a life that shunned that sort of random and often possibly illegal activity and she ended up paying for it or fleas dog. |
