《加州旅馆》翻译与分析 The Eagles 老鹰乐队: ~4 R5 i7 L% B# ^
: L6 ?4 z u7 c! F1 f/ F 7 n k# z4 C- G5 o
喜爱英文歌曲的fans没有几个不知道《Hotel California（加州旅店）》，这首空前绝后的超级、超超级、世界顶级、钻石级金曲是本世纪最著名的流行音乐作品，它造就了一批Hotel California的超级fans。可能是这首单曲太有名了，风头甚至盖过了它的创造者“老鹰乐队”。这首歌可以说是Eagles在最佳状态、最佳组合之下完成的一首旷世之作，这首《hotel california》在1977年连续8周获得排行榜冠军的位置，歌曲特殊之处在于Don Felder与Joe Walsh所的双吉他效果。

9 {: L* @, z' W “我们是一群来自中西部州中产阶层背景的年轻人，《加州旅馆》是我们对洛杉矶的上流社会的理解。它可看做是对总是追求奢华生活的美国的一个象征，而不仅仅是关于加州和贝弗利山区。”歌词和寓意，这首歌很难理解,因为它有太多的双关语！(我已经尽量解释了)，但如果你知道它反映的是某次吸毒后的情景，就可以很好的了解歌词大意了！加州旅馆可以广泛的理解为是一种人间欲望的象征！
