I have looked it up several times but I always forget exactly what the line in Hotel California is. "Warm smell of ????, rising up through the air." I think because I've never heard the word "colitas" outside of that song.

Hey, wait, I literally just now thought of something.

You suppose they meant carnitas? Maybe Don Henley enjoyed carnitas but had misheard the name.

This is my theory as well. Because carnitas smell wonderful.

I always used to think it was something like "cali dust" and I thought that meant some kind of desert smell? "Cali" had something to do with California or caliche? I dunno! I've never heard "colitas" outside of this song, either.

I just googled it. Apparently colitas isn't really a word people use in English. And the Eagles used it wrong for the most part. http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/1053/in-the-song-hotel-california-what-does-colitas-mean

Interesting.

This also inspired me to check Wikipedia to see what the band actually said it's about, because I always assumed ti was just a low-budget horror movie plot in song form.

I thought it was "Goletas." Goleta is a town on the California central coast.
