On Earth, 1969, the sixties, was a period of free creation in the American music industry, and the popularity of rock 'n' roll became a symbol of the liberal and rebellious ideas of the sixties. But then the pomp and circumstance also brought the eyes of the merchants to the infinite greed. Drug addiction and almost every rocker took the same path of depravity in the seventies, and money and pleasure became the new image of rock music in the seventies.

Therefore, the Eagle Orchestra, which was also a musician at the time, saw this fact, but could not do anything.

At that time, musicians had come to see this kind of addiction as the norm in the music industry, and rock musicians were always surrounded by beautiful faces and beautiful places. In the face of doubts from the outside world, they always forgive themselves: take it easy, we are naturally easy to be seduced. The music industry has been unable to kill the demon of money, and even if some individuals can end it temporarily, they can never get rid of it.

In particular, before that, that is, in the year 1969 mentioned by "Hotel California", there was a great sensation in the American rock scene, and even in the entire world rock scene, and even a major event that has been affecting generations!

Woodstock Rock Festival is known as the most famous and greatest rock festival series on the planet - Woodstock Music Festival, which was first held in 1969 with the theme of "Peace, Anti-War, Fraternity, Equality". The scale and lineup are unprecedented, and this is also a music festival that has never seen a copper smell, and it is also a great resonance and combination of music and art, and has set a benchmark and example for future music festivals that are difficult to surpass. Most of the countless music festivals that have been held since then have been done in the spirit of Woodstock. Actively organized public welfare concerts, and at the same time expressed the enthusiasm of young people for music.

So, Woodsstock in 1969. Seen as the pinnacle party of rock 'n' roll. So, in the Eagles' "Hotel California" at the time, Andhesaid, Wehaventhadthatspiritheresincenineteensixty-nine, he said that we haven't had spirits since 1969

Spirit - Spirit, the word also has a spiritual connotation, and the lyrics imply that after Woodstoker, no matter how beautiful it looks. The spirit of rock and roll is no longer there.

Therefore, people who think that this song symbolizes American society understand 1969 in this way: 1969 is the last year of the 60s, and saying that there has been no such spirit since 1969 refers to the spirit of freedom, peace, and equality in the United States in the 60s.

However, the United States entered the seventies. It was the Middle East oil crisis, the defeat in the Vietnam War, Nixon's Watergate scandal, etc. Overnight, the spiritual outlook of the United States changed from struggling youth to vulgar and decadent middle-aged. Therefore, most Americans of that era had a sad mood, and they became world-weary because they could not see the future. Spend the day drowning in alcohol and drugs. Delusional search for authenticity or fulfillment. It's just that once you fall into it, you can't extricate yourself anymore!

It wasn't until the advent of "Hotel California" that countless withered hearts seemed to suddenly regain hope, allowing them to carry all the sorrow and confusion of the 70s in this song, and at the same time, the Eagles' "Hotel California" topped the charts for eight consecutive weeks in 1977, and at the same time ranked 11th in the 100 greatest English classics of the subsequent "Rolling Stone".

However, any great work is accompanied by criticism and questioning, and "Hotel California" is no exception. Since its release, "Hotel California" has immediately attracted a lot of doubts and criticism. Although no one dares to boast that their understanding is the correct version. But the lyrics' allusions to drug use, sexual promiscuity, and cults still aroused the resentment of moral defenders, and they were shunned by religious groups in several states in the United States. However, the classic guitar melody, weird and inexplicable lyrics, and touching pathos in the "Hotel California" song make this "Hotel California" mysterious forever, and it has become the favorite of several generations.

This is Hotel California and 1969 on Earth, and America after 1969.

And what about in this world?

In Lee's memorable memory, the 1969 years of this world and even the 70s after that were even more crazy times for Americans!

In the sixties and seventies on the earth, for the United States, although there were constant wars, most of them were caused by the United States to other countries, although its own people had to endure the life and death of sending their children to overseas battlefields, and no matter how empty life was, but for this country, except for the odd number of Pearl Harbor, it did not let the flames of war burn to the mainland, which is really rare in most countries that have experienced wars, and it has also laid a solid foundation for the further development and growth of the United States until the hegemonic world。

However, in the sixties and seventies of the last century, the United States was fighting a civil war, yes, a civil war, and because of the increasingly acute social contradictions and racial problems, the United States of this world was fighting a good fight within itself during this period, and almost broke out a second civil war! Unlike the first rebellion against British colonial rule, this civil war was purely to resolve domestic contradictions.

War is the land of all destruction and the source of all faith. At that time, the national faith in the United States of America was a mess, and the emptiness and collapse of the human heart were even worse than in the same era on earth.

Therefore, in that context, Li Youyang knew that once the song "Hotel California" mentioned by Bill Hughes was born in that era, I am afraid that it may really cause a complete change, so that the whole country will once again fall into the war between the north and the south, and at the same time, I am afraid that there will be no longer him.

After all, "Hotel California" is really magical, full of magic, and in a specific era and in a specific humanistic mood, it will definitely cause an incredible change. The positive aspects it has, but what about the negative aspects?

On Earth, HotelCalifornia is also considered to be a Satanist theme song, and in addition to referring to the lyrics about supernatural things, some people say that if the song is played upside down, there will be multiple words of 'Satan'. Satanists also have a habit of reading words upside down and listening to songs upside down. Satanism, of course, is a religion that worships Satan the Devil, and a religion that worships Satan the Devil can imagine how terrifying its teachings are. And this is just the right way to say the magic and terrifying influence of "Hotel California". (To be continued.) )
