Eagles – The Last Resort

The Last Resort

Let’s take a trip back to the 70s, a time when rock music was at its peak and the Eagles were ruling the charts. One of their most iconic songs, “The Last Resort,” holds a special place in the hearts of music enthusiasts even today.

Released in 1976 as part of their album “Hotel California,” “The Last Resort” showcases the incredible songwriting skills of Don Henley and Glenn Frey. The song takes you on a journey through the dark side of the American dream, exploring themes of environmental destruction and the loss of innocence.

The composition of “The Last Resort” is a masterpiece in itself. The haunting melody, combined with the powerful harmonies and intricate guitar work, creates an atmosphere that is both captivating and thought-provoking. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a paradise lost, with lines like “They call it paradise, I don’t know why / You call someplace paradise, kiss it goodbye.”

What sets “The Last Resort” apart is its timeless message. It serves as a cautionary tale, reminding us of the consequences of our actions and the importance of preserving our planet. The song’s influence can be seen in the way it continues to resonate with audiences today, inspiring discussions about environmentalism and the pursuit of a better world.

If you haven’t had the chance to listen to “The Last Resort” yet, I highly recommend giving it a listen. It’s a song that not only showcases the Eagles’ musical prowess but also leaves a lasting impact on the listener. So, grab your headphones, close your eyes, and let the haunting melodies of “The Last Resort” transport you to a world of introspection and reflection.

The Last Resort – Eagles lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤

She came from Providence
One in Rhode Island
Where the old world shadows hang
Heavy in the air
She packed her hopes and dreams
Like a refugee
Just as her father came across the sea

She heard about a place
People were smilin’
They spoke about the red man’s way
And how they loved the land

And they came from everywhere
To the Great Divide
Seeking a place to stand
Or a place to hide

Down in the crowded bars
Out for a good time
Can’t wait to tell you all
What it’s like up there

And they called it paradise
I don’t know why
Somebody laid the mountains low
While the town got high

Then the chilly winds blew down
Across the desert
Through the canyons of the coast
To the Malibu

Where the pretty people play
Hungry for power
To light their neon way
Give them things to do

Some rich men came and raped the land
Nobody caught ’em
Put up a bunch of ugly boxes
And Jesus people bought ’em

And they called it paradise
The place to be
They watched the hazy sun
Sinking in the sea

You can leave it all behind
Sail to Lahaina
Just like the missionaries did
So many years ago

They even brought a neon sign
“Jesus is coming”
Brought the white man’s burden down
Brought the white man’s reign

Who will provide the grand design?
What is yours and what is mine?
‘Cause there is no more new frontier
We have got to make it here

We satisfy our endless needs
And justify our bloody deeds
In the name of destiny
And in the name of God

And you can see them there
On Sunday morning
Stand up and sing about
What it’s like up there

They call it paradise
I don’t know why
You call someplace paradise
Kiss it goodbye
