Someone told me it was about limbo but drugs makes more sense

Its about being homeless in San Francisco.

Reminds me of wanting to make a D&D adventure module out of it…

I've always thot it was about hell
ZevLeshar
I was always told it was about an insane asylum. The 'pink champagne on ice' bit refers to a common antipsychotic drug used at the time.

Ah yes, the old California Casualty Concept

You know it's a great song when everybody finds their own meaning for it

Just took it as one of the band members was a fan of Rod Serling ...

Hotel California is a song I will go out of my way for to turn off at any cost. It's such a shitty song.
Winterous
I like to think of it as a story about a creepy cult that feeds guests to a demon.
GeneralNuclear
Thought it was about a haunted hotel.

Hotel California is about loneliness

I don’t hate The Eagles, just Hotel California

2/5 stars. Couldn't get my spirits. Could not kill the beast. Could not leave.

It's about heroin
Prisoners of our own device. Stab it with steely knives (syringe needles) but can't kill the beast (addiction)
Check out any time you like (get off H) but you can never leave (still potential to re start)

It's about a mental hospital in california.

California is one big loony bin

That they turned into a university

It's about a bad colitas trip, man.

Yup thats The Eagles,they will hunt your ass for using anything even barely related to them.
You'll only get a free ride off the eagles.. When hell freezes over
CongratsYouAreHereNow
I thought that until I read the story
Chirikain
but how come they get to call themselves "the eagles"
JustForCatlos
Nah if you read it the hotel was using their music to sell merch saying that it was “the” hotel California and the lawsuit just had them 1/2
Stop using the name which they hadn’t been using for 50 years anyway they just decided to change it and start selling merch
Im not refering to just that,for exjample if you mention ''the eagles'' in your youtube video they will most likely claim the whole video.
There is an amazing guy that does music break downs on youtube,and he doesnt even mention the name because that was claimed the video before
ImgoingtosayShoveitupyourbutt
My first college paper was about Hotel California. I got a C+. This angered me and made me work hard to get done with school.

I've been told it has something to do with socialism or dictatorships. Can't remember.
Spaghettip
Ah yes, critical thinking in school or, everything is a secret political commentary.
I went with the Drug angle.
School drug raps are also good
turqfreeq
Dr Cassis-Johnson, by chance?
Honestly I can't recall the professor's name but i can picture him in my head. College was GPC-Dunwoody in 98
not the same then- she was at Regis College in 1978- this must have been a trope of sorts for humanities profs- "assign hotel california"
I was born in 79'
gee- thanx for that!

My mom would say that song is about hell, or a satanic cult or something
MrFats
I always assumed it was about purgatory or the afterlife or something...

It’s about the week they spent partying at the Church of Satan in SF. On California street, formerly a hotel. Anton Levay is The Captain.

We analyzed it trough and through in high school, teacher said it was about a cult. You can't leave, they keep you drunk/drugged.
Shismouche
The dark alcohol cult
TotallySaneScientist
That's a very direct analysis. :/
PieAndPunch
I went to a Christian HS and my science teacher spent a whole class period arguing that point and we proved him wrong in 2 min. Then I woul-
would constantly play the song around him to piss him off
Mikeiller
so you're bragging about being an asshole?
I think it's fair in this situation when an educator is wasting his students' time on conspiracy theories
of course YOU think you didn't do anything wrong.

“Science”

Science teacher: "Alright, class, please turn your textbooks to the chapter on evolution. Ha. There isn't one. Now get your bibles."
Tbf we learned evolution. We just had to do twice the work bc we had to learn both "theories" and also he wasted our time with conspiracies
