hello everyone, my name is Rico, this is an amazing community, handled by a great team @lordbutterfly, I'm happy to be here, and this competition has entered its eighth week, this Vibes community has received a lot of support from other members.

in the 9th week of the competition I decided to choose the best song from The Eagles, the title is Hotel California, I'm sure everyone knows this song, the song is good, and is the song that is easiest for everyone to memorize.

You can see the lyrics of this song here

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 place)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year (Any time of year)
You can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys 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."
He said, "We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine."
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 place)
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
Bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling
The pink champagne on ice
And she said "We are all just prisoners here, of our own device"
And in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember
I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
"Relax," said the night man
"We are programmed to receive
You can check-out any time you like
But you can never leave!"

This vibes community is very special and unique in my opinion, I'm sure vibes.co will continue to grow and become a big platform for musical talents around the world. This time I posted my video on 3speak, as usual, I used my smartphone camera and edited it with Capcut, my editing techniques are still very basic so please understand hahaha. For friends who haven't taken part in this competition, you should do it immediately.

One of my preferred song when I was a teenager

nice sir🍺

Beautiful and impressive fingerstyle guitar playing, I enjoyed your entire entry, after re-reading the full lyrics again to Hotel california, it makes you truly wonder about the darker undertones of the message behind the feel-good song, the text is mysterious and slightly sinister in nature and seems to be alluding to being trapped in a hell-like illusion. Nice entry

That's right friends, this song is full of mystery, in fact many people are still debating what the true meaning and meaning of this song is

Exactly, it's a deep one.
