johnezz Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Well..Two very famous songs, and both are famous for needing a double necked 12/6 string guitar to be played live.So what one do you prefer?Hotel Califonia for me, better overall melody, and the solos are way better than Pages on stairway IMHO.

Streetchild Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Stairway to Heaven is one of my favourite songs ever. Hotel California is a decent song, but not that great IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stratomaster Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Hotel California.. but i'm tired of both songs because i've heard them so many times! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevdo242 Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 I love Hotel California, but I prefer songs that are less strophic. Like in Stairway, I love it when the drums kick in and the solo comes in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ohdistortedsmile1789 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Stairway hasn't been played on the radio 1947105912295398 times for nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamisonic Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Stairway to california Haha, that's so stupid!Stairway hasn't been played on the radio 1947105912295398 times for nothing.Fuck yeah! That's there for everybody who says it's overrated!"And a new day will dawn, For those who stand long, And the forests will echo in laughter...¡Does anybody remember laughter!?"Fuck yeah!Stairway is better IMO. Far better song structure. Starts off slow and ends up heavy. Hotel California has some fine lyrics and a damn good solo, but, Stairway is more straightforward ... Hotel California is more messy, if you see where I'm going to. Stairway To Heaven for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
