Western Music Ranking Popular with Men [2025]

Hotel CaliforniaThe Eagles22rank/position

Hotel California (2013 Remaster)

The Eagles’ classic “Hotel California.” Did you think, “Isn’t that hard?” Well, yeah, it’s kind of hard, but depending on the arrangement, it’s actually the kind of song you can sing pretty easily.

That’s because there aren’t many high notes in it.

Plus, it’s a song where you can use edge voice—tightening the throat to produce sound—so it’s super easy to mask imperfections.

Edge voice lets you blur the ends of phrases and transition smoothly into a whispery tone, so it really helps you get away with things.

That said, the difficulty can skyrocket depending on the arrangement, so watch out (lol).
