I remember being in Eastern Europe in the early to Mid-1980's and I was at a rare outdoor Rock Concert where multiple Eastern Soviet Block Countries youths were having their version of Woodstock....except instead of New York State Cops surrounding the area it was Heavily Armed Soldiers and various members of those countries Intelligence Services agents....who looked none the too happy to be there.

During a break between rock groups and folk singers performing...as every group that played had to first have their set list and lyrics approved by the Government before they took the stage and all were warned that if they should play or perform something not approved or deemed subversive they would get a one way ticket to a long prison term.

Anyways....after one group finished on stage the sound crew that had been playing a variety of home spun music played the Eagles Hotel California through the large P.A. system.

It was amazing....every single person there....who were basically a bunch of kids from a Soviet Block Satellite Nation....started singing in English the lyrics to Hotel California....and the knew all the words perfectly!

I found out later that Hotel California had not been approved to be played as break music and a few people ended up in prison....but I think they probably thought it was worth it.

THOUSANDS of people in unison sang the lyrics to the song....I was amazed.
