【导读】 《加州旅馆》(Hotel California)是一首空前绝后的流行音乐作品,风头盖过了它的创造者“老鹰乐队”。这首歌深刻揭示了上世纪70年代人们的忧伤与迷惘。
Hotel California
On a dark desert highway,cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas,rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance,I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
This could be Heaven or this could be Hell
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year you can find it here
Her mind is Tiffanytwisted,she got the Mercedes Bends
She got a lot of pretty,pretty boys,that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard,sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember,some dance to forget
So I called up the captain
Please bring me my wine
And he said,“We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixtynine”
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They living it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise,bring your alibis
