    I think that Abdul Aziz, the older gentleman in the turban, is truly the most thoughtful when he’s listening. He has said a few time that he is totally illiterate but he’s extremely wise when he’s speaking which has nothing to do with literacy. He reminds me of my beautiful parents-in-law who are Yashkun from the Kashmir, another minority living under the Pakistani government. They’re also totally illiterate but so wise. All their children, both sons and daughters are all educated to having Masters degrees. Their children were told that the parents would work to give them all the education which they’d never have as they believed that literacy would bring their children a better future and financial stability, and they have done that now.

      I like his response to Black Sabbath where he says when you die, God will ask "do you know Satan?". "What does he look like?" No, it is not Satan, but you who have done evil. Don't blame Satan. This is a very wise thing to say about the politicians the band is referencing. I would like to meet him.

    Seven Bridges Road is my favorite Eagles' song. It really showcases their vocal harmonies.
    My interpretation of the song is that it's about addiction of some type: A man traveling through a dead land (desert) is tired and looking for relief from hardship (tiredness). Then he sees what he thinks he's looking for, but it turns out to be a trap he can never escape from.
    The story parallels what happens to those who become addicted. Addicts have a problem they want to solve or treat with drugs, sex, etc.They think it's something that will help them solve a problem, but it becomes worse problem in the end.

He would go and see them and hang out with them in dive bars when they were FIRST on the music scene in Washington state.

    I’ve always been told that “Hotel California” is about drugs and how once you get hooked on them, you’re stuck. Like the lyrics say, you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave. Addiction isn’t easy, it gets a hold on you. That’s the hotel California impacts.

      @@marieneu264 I also think it has a double meaning. When they say check out, they literally mean suicide too. Everything from addiction, and suicide, that line you can check out but you can never leave. That's directly related to depression. As a therapist, and struggling with depression in my own right, I double understand these meanings.

      Because of the line "prisoners of our own device" I always thought it was a reference to life itself...and re incarnation. Checking out meaning taking ones own l fe. You come back.

    Man do I love Abdul. The guy has lived in a remote place all his life, he has no chance to fully understand something like Hotel California's lyrics, but he is still able to get everything he possibly can.
    You just read out the first part of the song to him and, while his interpretation is not on point (yet again, with his knowledge I don't think anyone could have done better), he still sensed there was a trap.
    That being said, I think it was misleading from you to give them the modern interpretation of being prisoners of our "devices", that was interesting too but they deserve to know the original meaning of the song.

    I didn't see it mentioned that the song was mostly written by Don Felder the guy with the two-neck guitar. Don Henley wrote the lyrics. The song is actually about the party drug culture in California. You can "Check out" any time you like is about getting high. The "You can never leave" is that once you are addicted to the life it stays with you.
    By the way, they seem to love great harmonies. They should see some songs by "The Band". Levon Helm sings and plays drums as well but the harmonies in that band are incredible

    Device also means a plot, story, plan or method or effect. "Prisoners of our own device" means prisoners of our own making. That the lyric became somewhat applicable to what we all call "a device" is another twist of the measure of the timelessness of this song. The lyrics can be applied to anything in life itself. For me that's what Hotel California is - it's the life we create.

    They need to hear the a cappella song Seven Bridges Road by the Eagles…well mostly a capella. I think there’s guitar music about halfway through

    This is amazing. Watching these tribal men listening to classic rock, enjoying it and having meaningful conversations. It just goes to show that good music is truly universal.

    At the end of the song, it's the masters chamber but they stab the beast but cannot kill it.
    These men understood more than most even without a translation! That shows 2 things. They are very observant, and the artists got the meaning across in the music. This song is both beautiful and scary.

    What a great interpretation of this song that means so much to so many. "You can check in but never leave..." These men have such soul. I always concentrate on the Abdul Aziz the oldest one. He is so focused on the music. I keep my eye out for your videos.
    Please play for them Linda Ronstadt's "Blue Bayou". Now they know the era she came from and the grand group she knew, it would mean even more to them.

    A lot of people interpreted this song as a drug reference, you can "check out" any time you like, but you can never leave the addiction. It kind of fits, but the band has denied it having anything to do with drugs.
    If they likw the hair on that guy, then show them the lead singer for Kansas- Carry On Wayward Son. Great song, but that guy could be stunt double for bigfoot.

    Love your fantastic videos, want to check out more. Travelled all my life, always wanted to hear and see from other perspectives and that was the time when there were no mobiles, just you and who you stumbled upon and then memory to remember the moment. This is a gem of a film to see for the first time how one reacts to Hotel California. Music is so universal, it gets you in the heart no matter where in the world you come from. And it connects you to everyone. Brilliant footage.

    As was implied at the beginning, this song can have many interpretations. Some say it's about drugs, others say it's about a celeb lifestyle. It could be about being trapped by commercialism. It could be a horror story. Heck, it could be about giving in to the Dark Side of the Force (forever will it dominate your path). Any or all of those thing could be valid depending on who and where you are in your life. This is the hallmark of great art.

    I've always taken the meaning of Hotel California in a very different way. To me, it means this guy is traveling down the road through life, the road literally representing his life. He got tired, so he stopped at this hotel for the night. The hotel itself is extremely seductive, as evidenced by the woman standing in the doorway. She is there to entice people to come into the hotel. He was unsure of this place, unsure of whether it's heaven or hell, good or bad. Maybe she represents Linda Ronstadt. Because she lit up the candle and showed him the way into what became their future, The Eagles. To me, the hotel itself represents the State of California. California Can Be Heaven to some, but it is hell to others. Some find success and happiness, some find no success but are still happy, some find success and it ruins their lives and their very Souls. Therefore, it's heaven to some and hell to others. He follows her in further into this hotel. And he hears the voices in the corridors welcoming him to such a lovely place. They're telling him there's plenty of room here in California, and whatever you're looking for any time of year, you can find it here in California.
    He talks about her twisted mind and how she has all these different men around her but tells him they're just friends. He's watching everyone in the courtyard dancing. Some are dancing with joy at the memories, and some are dancing with sorrow, trying to forget the memories. He asks for someone to bring him his wine, and the person replies we haven't had that spirit in here since 1969. This is a double meaning referencing spirits like alcohol but I think it's also referencing Woodstock, which took place in 1969. And he said still those voices are calling from far away. I imagine this to be a reference to all the musicians at Woodstock. (However, Woodstock did not take place in California, so I could be wrong in my analogy there. Like I said, this is just what the song says to me).
    Mirrors on the ceiling and pink champagne on ice. I think this may be a reference to drugs and alcohol because drugs like cocaine and other drugs that you sniff through your nose, they are typically chopped up on a mirror. The mirror could also be a reference to Ego and and the narcissistic need to present yourself in a certain way that will make people like you even if that which you present is not truly Who You Are; the mirror could represent the facade or the fakeness of california. How beautiful it is in appearance and how corrupt and disgusting it can be just below what it appears to be. She says to him we are all just prisoners here of our own device. That device can refer to contracts that they've signed, addictions that they've picked up, even relationships that keep them bound to California. In the Masters Chambers, they gathered for the feast they stab it with their stealing knives, but they just can't kill the beast. I think the master and his chamber would be a reference to certain Executives and their offices where musicians will sign these Ironclad contracts, and, especially back then, they pretty much owned them after that. It granted these executives ownership rights of Musicians music. Stabbing it with their steely knives might be a reference to trying to get out of a contract that can't be killed AKA canceled. Last thing I remember I was running for the door had to find the passage back to the place I was before. This may be a reference to musicians and other entertainers trying to find their way back to the person they were before they came to California and became famous because that Fame is often a prison for the famous person. They are expected to act in a certain way to speak in a certain way to vote in a certain way, etcetera, etcetera. With that Fame often came drug alcohol and sexual addictions. To me, trying to find the passage back to the place he was before would be trying to escape all that he became so that he can find his way back to the person he once was before all the fame. You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave. Again, I think this is a reference to Ironclad contracts that keep these people enslaved to their executive Masters. In the United States the words check out can have a double meaning. It can mean you're checking out of a motel or a can mean you're checking out of life permanently. Taking one's own life. Basically saying you can check out, but we still own your butt..
    After you're dead, we will still be making money off of you and you will still be here because your music, movies, books (whatever it was this person did in life) will still be here LONG after they are gone
