Review:   The song starts off with the bass and the acoustic guitar. The song is known for its simplicity, after all. Don Henley kick starts the vocals at 00:52, after the famous door knocking sound is heard. The context of the song is smooth, lyrics are simple and rhythm is enchanting. The vocals (Don Harley) also pack a punch, being on the softer side. The first chorus starts at 01:45, and it is the most famous part of the song, with quirky electric guitar rifts added in between. The beats are also completely different for the chorus. With the chorus ending at 02:10, Henley starts the second stanza again; and adds a little Urgh (02:18) in between. This verse also contains the notorious So I called up the Captain, Please bring me my wine ; He said We haven t had that spirit here since 1969 phrase, which is referred to as a metaphorical phrase. The second chorus will start at 03:03, and just like the previous one, it ll be added with quirky guitar rifts and high tempo beats. Anyways, the third stanza begins at 03:29; and it is considered to be the most controversial disney world florida hotel stanza. The vocals disney world florida hotel end with a bang at 04:20, and an awesome solo (Electric guitar) is initiated from the same. The beats are almost identical, and the guitar solo (From 04:20 06:25) just BLOWS your mind off! From highs to lows, from lows to highs Such ease, such perfection! There are also plenty of looped rifts played, my favorite being the 05:39 06:25 loop. The song starts fading disney world florida hotel off from 06:08, and ends completely at 06:31.
