"It's been a long time since I've sung this song~ Our party song, a golden song written by Mr. Downey and composed by Lee, welcome to..."Hotel California~"

As a melody full of strong American country style resounded under Lee Hyun-chul's fingers, everyone, including Donnie, showed a look of nostalgia on their faces.

"Daihatsu~"

Park Chaeyoung, Kim Ji-ni, Endy and Park Jin-hee, who are full of yearning for European and American music, couldn't help but widen their eyes, and hurriedly found out their mobile phones and turned on the recording function.

Although the others did not react so aggressively, they also admitted that the prelude to this paragraph alone sounded very comfortable. And among the many types of music in Korea, it is rare to hear such a comfortable song.

"On the dark and desolate road, the cool breeze blew my hair..."

"The warm breath of Coritas rises in the air..."

Immediately after, Downey sat on the corner of the couch with the microphone in hand, and then Lee Hyun-cheol sang the second stanza of the lyrics.

"Looking up into the distance, the faint lights flicker.... My mind became heavy, and my vision became more and more blurry..."

Everyone knows that Donnie is a well-known swinger in Hollywood, and his father's reputation has made him a lot of attention since he was born.

That innate talent for acting has earned him a lot of praise from the media and professional filmmakers just a few years after his debut.

But when he was eight years old, he stepped into the unique demon abyss under the guidance of his father, and since then he has been arrested and imprisoned several times. In addition to acting, Donnie also has an unknown hobby, which is singing.

He once joked in front of Lee Hyun-cheol that if the movie abandoned him one day, he would change careers to become a singer, and team up with Lee Hyun-chul to tour all over the United States.

It's no joke, Downey actually released a record when he was younger, and his voice was as intoxicating as his own temperament.

So at the moment when he opened his voice, the whole audience became his audience, and no one dared to disturb him, even if he couldn't understand the lyrics, he was attracted by the cooperation of the two.

"Gotta stop and look for a place to spend the night..."

"And she was standing by the porch, and I heard the bell ringing in my ears..."

"I thought to myself, hell and heaven are only one thought..."

"She lit a candle and led the way before me... Singing echoed in the depths of the hallway... I can vaguely hear them singing..."

When it comes to the high day, Chris picks up his hammer, Evans and Mark huddle together and hold the bottle, Tom and Kevin, who wake up from drunkenness, get up and dance unknown dance steps and sing in unison.

"Welcome to Hotel California, what a lovely place, such a beautiful face..."

"The California Hotel has enough rooms that you can stay here at any time of the year...."

"Hotel California" is a song written by the Eagles in the sixties of the last century in Lee Hyun-cheol's memory, and it just so happens that Downey's life trajectory runs through the sixties and seventies.

For the United States, the sixties were a period of free creation in the American music industry and the film industry, and now people think of the idea of "freedom and rebellion" in the United States, in fact, it began in that era.

At that time, the grand occasion had long since changed the attitude of life in the entertainment industry to become more and more erosive, and the absorption of independence and silver chaos became a way for many young Americans and artists in the circle to degenerate between the 60s and 70s.

This kind of popularity has become the worship of "looking for inspiration" in the eyes of many artists later, and they seem to dare not go through this, and they are embarrassed to say that they are engaged in art.

When Lee Hyun-cheol and Downey were working together, supervising Downey's rehabilitation every day became the center of his work, and when he was taking a break from his mind and body, a news story about Schwarzenegger giving a speech in front of a hotel in California happened to be broadcast on TV.

At that time, he was inspired to play the prelude to "Hotel California", which was originally a version of more than two minutes long.

After this prelude was heard by Donnie after taking a bath, he fell in love with it uncontrollably.

In his words, it was from this melody that he thought of his past life, and Downey wrote the lyrics.

Lee then made a simple modification, and the song mirrored the music and film worlds of the sixties and seventies, and tactfully criticized the era in which Downey lived in the erosive entertainment industry.

Lee Hyun-cheol remembers that when the song originally appeared, it was questioned and attacked by the outside world, because the content of the lyrics was just aimed at the era of the Eagles at that time, and many people did not admit that they were "degenerating", and everyone said that this song was regarded as an "evil song".

But now that the song is being born in the 21st century, there is no need to worry about being attacked, and on the one hand, people know that the word was written by Downey, but they will think that it is a confessional song that he "repented" and "admonished the world".

In addition, the melody is full of retro and rustic atmosphere, which will inspire memories for those who came from the sixties and seventies.

Later, at a party, Downey played the song with Lee Hyun-chul through wine, which was loved by many men, and this tradition was preserved with the party.

This is probably the first time Lee Hyun-chul has sung an English song in front of the girls, and it is also the first time he has sung an English song composed by him.

He lost count of the adoring glances these girls had given him.

He only remembered that when it came to the chorus, the scene was directly turned into a chorus by his and Donnie's singing.

Late at night, the party ended at the end of the song, with a piece of Lee Hyun-cheol's impromptu solo. Fortunately, there were enough rooms in Donnie's house, and several big men staggered into the house to rest.

Lee Hyun-cheol and Downey took a dozen young girls to a nearby hotel, the owner was a middle-aged white man from California, USA, and he had a good relationship with Downey.

And in the past, I was fortunate enough to hear "Hotel California", and when I learned that Lee Hyun-chul was the author of this song, I was very happy to give them a five-fold discount.

After swiping the card, An Junying took the girls to the car to carry their salutes, and of course, some people were very smart to tip and ask the staff in the hotel to help.

For example, the hotels in the scenic area are rarely full on weekdays, and it is not the peak season for tourism, even if it is discounted, this does not include other expenses.

When the owner of the hotel heard that they were from South Korea, he thought that he was a very famous artist, and took out his camera to take a picture with Lee Hyun-chul.

"Lee, it's time for these beautiful girls to go to rest... Tomorrow, if it's convenient, I'll take them to the city center to have a good time. ”

Indeed, Downey used to travel through the fun places of New York City when he was younger, and it was a good choice to use him as a guide.

But... Li Xianzhe didn't dare to let Donnie take them out to "fool around", on the one hand, after being discovered like that, with the character of the American paparazzi, he would definitely not report it "seriously", and secondly, it was not time to play.
