PUNKFEST - Hotel California (Eagles Cover)

[Saijinn Maas]

Well, I think I completely bastardized this song. Had such a hard time deciding how to the vocals on this. I must have sang through this 2 dozen times :/ In the end, I went with this, for better or worse...

I felt scared clicking on this.... until recently, this was my favorite song of all time.

Sai.... you freak show! The vocals are awesome! I never thought I'd hear a punked up version of this. frick, I'm singing along.... yes in my office, and yes with cans on, and yes people could hear me before I realized it...

Yep, I love this version Sai! WOW.

Ok, this completes my "Hotel California" journey:

As a kid I worshipped this song. I even had to watch the movie. Eventually, I OD'd on it and the Eagles in general (Excluding Joe Walsh, who flat out rocks), similar to the Michael Jackson "Thriller" album. At that point I moved on to Maiden, Malmsteen, Ratt, Crue, etc. but always occasionally enjoyed a Frampton, Nuge, Kiss, Floyd and James Gang album playthrough.

Fast forwarding to near present time I had the pleasure of hearing Dave Berry's cover of "We Used To Know", a fantastic Jethro Tull cover posted on this forum that I listen to constantly. It was a song believed to be the catalyst for the creation of "Hotel California".

And now, I hear this killer concoction that was manifested possibly from a similar listening history that I had.

Well done, great rockout and great vocals (The vox were brilliant to be specific!). I feel the Kiss influence, but we all have that  .

Sweeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!!
