Time for the Joe Walsh’s Greatest Hits: Little Did He Know (aka The Definitive Collection) Survivor, where we vote off Joe’s greatest hits until we get to the last one standing!

If you're new, for a basic overview of the game, see this post: Survivor Overview (https://eaglesonlinecentral.com/forum/showpost.php?p=6551&postcount=7)

I'm going to list the songs from Little Did He Know here. Vote for the song that you feel should be eliminated from the list. The song that gets the most votes will be taken off of the list (or, in the language of Survivor, "Voted off of the island.") Each round, one more song will get axed, until there's only one left. Remember: you're voting for your LEAST favorite, not your favorite.

Each round will last 48 hours after posting to give people a chance to vote who don't post every day. That means that the first round will end at 8:00 Eastern Daylight time (GMT – 4 hours) the day after tomorrow. If you miss a round, don't think you can't play. It's all good!

Since there may be discussion posts, be sure to make it clear when you are casting your vote. Votes cannot be cast after the cut off time of 8:00 on the second day, and they cannot be changed once you have voted.

If you get confused about what round we are in, look at this post. I'll always update it to reflect the current round. Also feel free to post any questions if you don't understand what's going on.

If there is a tiebreaker, then ALL votes from ALL previous rounds are tallied and whoever has the most prior votes is eliminated. That’s the way it’s done on the real show, that’s the way it’s done here. If there is a complete tie with prior votes (Murphy’s Law), then I'll have a sudden-death trivia question ready. The first person who answers it correctly gets to break the tie. The odds of that happening are slim, but you never know, and it's good to be prepared.

The tie-breaker question will be asked one hour after results are in, if there is need for it. The exception is the last round. If the tie-breaker does not resolve the last round, then the tie will be allowed to stand.

For this Survivor, we also have immunity questions. We won't have immunity questions on the first or second-to-last-rounds, and of course we won't have them for the last round, lol. However, for the other rounds, we will.

Here's how immunity questions work. After the beginning of the round, I ask a Walsh-related question. The first person who answers the question correctly gets to pick a remaining song to be immune - no one can vote for it on the next round. I'll allow two hours for someone to answer. If no one gets it right by then, then we continue the round as normal without any song being immune. You only get one guess per round, so be careful!

The winner of the Joe's Greatest Hits Survivor is...

LIFE'S BEEN GOOD!


Congratulations LIFE'S BEEN GOOD.

It's not that Midnight Man is bad, it's just not that great. And the whole "Midnight Man, be mine" part confuses me, since most of the song is sung by a dude! ;)

I cast my vote for Midnight Man.

Im with Soda. It's not my favorite Joe song, and definatly my least favorite off this album.
I vote for Midnight Man also.

Prettymaid

It's funny, Midnight Man is probably my 'most improved song', in that I like it much more now than when I first heard it. It's really grown on me, especially the third verse female vocal. That parts just so pretty...

The man and woman are singing to each other, therefore...
(Man) I'm your Midnight Man
(Woman) Midnight Man be mine.

I'd rather see Mother Says go the first round. The tune is very repetitive and it's my least favorite song on this cd.

I cast my vote for Mother Says.

I'll go with Mother Says too. Midnight Man has started to grow on me, the more I hear it the better I like it.

Congratulations ticky - that is correct.

I forgot to mention that you need to also specify which song you wish to make immune. As soon as ticky lets us know which song to make immune, we will start Round 2 voting.

09-04-2008, 08:36 PM
Oh well,, gee,.. I had to do some serious garden sitting to make a decision. One cant just go around immunizing just ANY song.. hmm.. Ok.. after much inner debate and consideration (meaning I dont *think* any of my favorites are really at risk here yet...) and because I have a really crappy recording of it AND I'd like to hear it a little better before it *poof* disappears AND because I AM a gardener and I'd tend Joe's garden any day *grin* I'm going to say "Tend My Garden"
Sorry to anyone who voted for it first round. Maybe next round :)

There are just a lot more songs on that album which I enjoy, also to a certain extent, although Life's Been Good is a great song, it just gets far too much airplay and that has made me become quite tired of listening to it (unless its live).

sodascouts
09-05-2008, 12:26 PM
I understand Toon - sometimes when something is played a lot it can become boring to a fan. Still, you won't catch me voting for it anytime soon. lol

Toonlass
09-05-2008, 12:38 PM
Lol!! I said it would be controversial. It does seem to be the only JW solo song played here (well, sometimes Nicky Horne will play some Barnstorm....but I don't count that as solo stuff) and as there are so many wonderful JW songs which don't get a look in I had to do it!

sodascouts
09-05-2008, 01:14 PM
Interesting that you don't count Barnstorm as solo stuff - isn't Barnstorm really "Joe Walsh and backing band"? I know it's often listed on discographies as his first solo album - on JWO as well, in fact. I figure Joe Walsh and Barnstorm is like Bruce Springsteen and the E-street band - they're credited as a unit, but we still think of the work as Springsteen songs.

glenneaglesfan
09-05-2008, 01:36 PM
By strange coincidence I've just posted a Springsteen song in the never ending thread!

It's true that Life's Been Good is played a lot here, but they occasionally vary it with Rocky Mountain Way.

It looks as if Midnight Man will go out this round, so I'm going to vote tactically.

I cast my vote for The Confessor

Toonlass
09-05-2008, 01:57 PM
Well, to me Barnstorm was a band which was a trio just like the James Gang, comprising of JW, Joe Vitale and Kenny Passarelli (with the addition of Rocke Grace for Smoker). Walsh liked being part of a band, but wanted a band he had formed as it would mean less arguing over who sang what and when (part of the reason he left the Gang).

I guess I always just think of Barnstorm (album) and Smoker as Barnstorm (group) albums and then from So What its solo Joe. Its also interesting to note that Barnstorm was the backing band on Michael Stanley's Friends And Legends.

First of all, I want to apologize for my vagueness at the end of the first round. I have to keep reminding myself that since some of you are new to the game, you may not be familiar with all of the rules and strategies. I was in a hurry that night, and didn't really think about all of that. Anyway, I should have noted when I posted the immunity question that you must include the song that you want to make immune in the same post as your answer. That way, if your answer is correct, we can immediately proceed to the next round.

Also, since I got a couple of questions about the way I voted in the first round, I am going to try to explain my strategy a little better for the newbies. So here goes my strategy for Round 2. With or without my vote, it appears that Midnight Man will be eliminated this round. I probably would have voted for The Bomber again since I want it to be eliminated early and it will give it more votes in the event of a future tie. However, since Toonlass broke my heart by voting for Life's Been Good, I am going to try to protect it in later rounds. I am guessing that one of it's major competitors will be Rocky Mountain Way. Therefore, even though I love the song, I want to even the score between LBG and RMW so ...

I cast my vote for Rocky Mountain Way.

I've tried to talk myself into liking The Confessor, really I have. I like the old west outlaw sounding guitar work. I just can't get into the song at all. (And the woman in the video with the weird yellow eyes - Who-o-o-o-a!)

Regarding the Confessor - it's kind of creepy and the video is downright freaky, but Joe does some great lyrical work in it and that, for me, puts the song above some of his other efforts. His use of the well metaphor is very clever, for instance. The piece as a whole is quite intelligent.

DonFan
09-06-2008, 11:26 PM
I just took the time to watch a couple of those videos you have posted to familiarize myself with Joe's songs. That is a GREAT early clip of Help Me Through the Night! I always liked that song. (Love Don's HUGE fro.) I also love the video for Ordinary Average Guy. Joe looks great with his long blonde hair, and that stop-motion man in the video is so cute & funny, especially waving goodnight at the end.

I'm not too fond of The Confessor (song or video) so that is my vote this round.

ticky
09-06-2008, 11:34 PM
Ok, so normally I would have voted for The Bomber, but.. *grin* ok so now I know how it feels.
I really like The Confessor. I love Joe's guitar work in it and it's kind of gutsy and earthy. I like it, cant vote it out yet, and I really like Tend My Garden. I like the tune and I like how he sings it So.. that leaves me with some slim pickin's. After relistening to everything left I (although I really hate to do it because JOE IS ASKING ME TO HELP HIM THRU THE NIGHT?!?!?!... *sigh*) but it's just not my favorite.. I vote for Help me through the night.

Joe, I'll still help you thru the night, honey, it's just the song..it's gotta go.. *grin*

I just read DF's post about the video, I'll probably be sorry after I see it.. Oh well..

The Confessor is not a song I was familiar with at all. After listening to it several times and trying to ignore the freaky video I just can't find much to really like about it.. so my vote this round goes to The Confessor

Sorry! If it makes you feel any better, one of my favourites was voted out first.

For this round, after listening to the whole lot again (a necessary thing) I have decided that I'm voting for... Meadows. As much as I enjoy the song, I guess it just, for me, have the same connections as other songs on the album.

I would just like to say a few words in defense of Tend My Garden. I love the organ sound in the song. It takes me back to the era it was written in ( The Doors' Light My Fire , for example).

Also, all of you Joe fans, can you really vote for a song this early that starts with the words, "Won't you come home with me. I can think of things to show ya."?

I rest my case.

I'm really enjoying this Survivor. It's very interesting to read how different our opinions are of Joe's songs, for instance Help Me Thru The Night was the song on HFO that made Joe my second favourite Eagle (and I love that version you have linked to, Soda, thanks for all of those). I've already said how much I like Tend My Garden, even if it seems to have such a long quiet introduction that I think my iPod is out of power! I would have voted for The Bomber this round, but as it is immune I'm going to vote for Ordinary Average Guy - clever lyrics and a funny video, but that long drawn out sound between the verses kind of disturbs me.

Brooke
09-08-2008, 03:12 PM
Well, I've had to go and listen to some of these songs again to try to figure out what I like and don't like, too. Thanks for all the links, SS! They are very helpful. I just love the Help Me Through The Night link. Love Don's 'fro there, especially. :nahnah:

The most popular choices this round seem to be Meadows, Tend My Garden, and The Confessor.

In Meadows, I could do without that bit of goobeldygarb and the scream. What was he thinking with that? Does anyone else think the beginning guitar part sounds like the song by the Moody Blues Woman From Tokyo? I think of that song every time.

As for The Confessor.....wierd, creepy, very strange video. I also think some of the lyrics are quite clever, as per the well. And Joe's feet! What size shoe does that man wear anyway?! They look huge there! Now it does have a cool guitar solo! :headbang:

Tend My Garden.....I, too, tend to think my cd player has quit or there is no song there and about the time I give up and turn up the volume, it kicks in and breaks my eardrums! I like the song though once it finally gets going!

All that being said, I cast my vote for Meadows. The scream just does me in! :hand: (I've been wondering where I could use this smilie! Works here!) lol

Correct!

THE CONFESSOR is immune.

Round 4 begins now!

Well, this one took some thought. I don't like the stuff at the beginning of Meadows either, but I think other than that it's a strong song. Ordinary Average Guy is funny and clever, but it can get a bit repetitive.

I cast my vote for Ordinary Average Guy.

P.S. Good work making The Confessor immune, ticky!

Thanks Soda, I love The Confessor and I think it deserves another look. Please ignore the video, it is creepy but it's the song we're voting on.
Also, I was going to vote for The Bomber this round, but ya know, the Bolero riff in that alone deserves a LOT of respect. When the song was first released, Bolero was still covered by copyright laws and it had to be removed from the song till the copyright ran out on the song, then he put it back in. Joe's mom was a classically trained concert pianist and, no doubt, passed those skills on. It is a really beautiful piece.
So, with that said, I vote for Medows. It's a great song too with excellent guitar work (but what of Joe's DOESNT have great guitar work *G*) but it is my least favorite of the left overs.

I agree with you about The Bomber & the use of Bolero, ticky, which is one of my favourite classical pieces. The song is very innovative and ahead of its time.

I love the lyrics of Meadows 'sent here because ya said so/waitin' around to fall' and I hope it doesn't go too early.

I cast my vote for Ordinary Average Guy.

You are absolutely right, PM! I even looked it up, but had MB on the brain for some reason! :doh:

In the meantime, I'm going to take my chances that it will survive and continue with my strategy to even the score between Life's Been Good and it's potential competitors, therefore ...

I cast my vote for Walk Away.

It's one of those songs I'd really like to see the Eagles revisit. Joe's voice has changed, they all have, their harmony is richer now if anything! SO.. you win Soda, Im NOT voting Help Me off.. not yet..

Wow - it always amazes me in these Survivor games what varied tastes even a small group of fans like us have. For example, Ordinary Average Guy and A Life of Illusion are in my top five list of favorite Joe songs. I won't be around when the voting closes tonight, but I'm betting that The Bomber will be bombed. I agree that its time has come. From here on out, it's gonna be getting really hard because all of the songs left are just so good. Therefore, with great regret, but consistent with my general preference for rockers over ballads ...

Okay - I gotta totally disagree here with my good friend, soda. First of all, if a song gives you a good laugh, to me that means it's moving you emotionally. However, Life's Been Good does more for me than give me a good laugh - it is the ultimate 'feel good' song. Every time I hear it, it gives me a huge emotional high. I don't think I'm the only one either - just look at the audience reaction to it at the live shows.

I know that Life's Been Good may have been overplayed - but, so has Hotel California, Take It Easy, Desperado, and Heartache Tonight to name just a few others. However, that doesn't take away from the fact that these are all classic songs that have reached a legendary status in rock 'n roll history for good reason. As the old saying goes - "the cream rises to the top". JMHO

Well, first of all, they rarely DO HMTTN in concert, not like they do Life's Been Good or RMW, so you cant really gage this by audience reaction. Personally I get MUCH more of an emotional high from listening to HMTTN then LBG, but like you said, thats my opinion. I would really like to see something less listened to win this just because it might make people give it a second listen! HMTTN is a great song! Look at me! I started out not liking it, but it took a different version to change my mind. Now the song melts me! to ME it's the ultimate Feel Good song.

Hotel California and Take It Easy arent in this game so we cant vote on them. They are all great songs, but to be fair, if Hotel California and Take it easy WERE in this against say, Hollywood Waltz or Try and Love Again, I'd probably vote for one of those, because they are great songs that dont get much play!

It's not that I want Life's Been Good voted off bacause it's been overplayed, and I don't want to keep Help Me Thru the Night just because it's the underdog. The fact that one is a fun, sarcastic - edged song and the other a beautifully simple ballad makes this all the more interesting.

I have had a hard time deciding which way to vote this time. I really like all of the songs that are left. And while I agree HMTTN is a lovely song I just can't stand seeing Life's Been Good go away yet. So I while begging for the forgiveness of my best friend ticky, I cast my vote for Help Me Through the Night...

In a very tight round, the next song to be voted off the island in the Joe Walsh’s Greatest Hits: Little Did He Know (aka The Definitive Collection) Survivor is Help Me Thru The Night. “Help Me Thru The Night” it was such a price to pay, but we took your dream away. You must please leave the island immediately. The remaining songs may return to camp.

All right, we managed to save LBG for another round! Well done! :yay:

These last three are going to require some more thought and listening! Oh the pain!

I l love Life's Been Good. We sang it last night as part of our little band's set list and everyone sang along at the top of their lungs. I am holding out hope that it will win!

I vote for Rocky Mountain Way.

I again cast my vote for Life's Been Good. It doesn't have the swagger or bluesy feel that RMW has.

Has anyone noticed that the opening riff of LBG is very similar to The Heat is On? Ten notes in each - very similar tune, though of course LBG is played on guitar and THIO on sax.

Too bad I missed this game. I can't let my fave Life's Been Good go down though.

I vote for Rocky Mountain Way!
