I struggle to choose between them although I listened to LROOE yesterday, full blast in the car, and I loved it all over again. I think it's stunning and incredibly atmospheric. The lyrics combined with Don's voice give me chills. I love How Long, but in my opinion it can't hold the candle to the other remaining songs. Just my thoughts
    Troub, I just wanted you to know that I think I know how you feel concerning the three remaining songs. You described it perfectly. However I have to revert back to Dreamer's explanation last round as to why How Long should stay. Maybe it's because I was around and remember The Eagles at the beginning. Their simplistic country rock sound is what I think of when I think of The Eagles. Just like The Beatles, over time The Eagles music became more sophisticated, for lack of a better word. And just like The Beatles, I like the turn their music took. But when I listen to How Long, I hear the band I fell in love with 35 years ago, and I'm sure that nostalgia is partially what makes me love the song and want to hold on to it.

    With that said, I sadly cast my vote for Long Road Out of Eden.

    I guess I'm with the crowd here voting for Long Road out of Eden. I am glad to see these three in the remaining group though!

    You all know which I am voting for.

    Sorry but Long Road Out Of Eden must go. I loved it live but the other 2 songs are my favorite of the album.

    Well shoot. I do love the remaining three, but I have to go back and once again vote for the song the band did not write. It's a wonderful opener and as you have discussed, sounds like the old Eagles, but still.

    I vote for How Long.

    Daaaaaaaaaang it! I really don't want to do this! Especially because everything I said in the last round is very very true! But seeing as I think the song that's on it's way out is excellent in every way (except perhaps length hehe)............I regretfully must say -

    I vote for How Long

    I made the song immune because to me it is the absolute standout track on the album. I know you don't think so, Soda, but I don't know that 'it would never have made it this far' without immunity. Perhaps immunity helped it somewhat but those are the rules. I felt that the song needed to be treated with the respect that a song of this stature (in my opinion) deserved.

    I vote for How Long.

    I wasn't trying to chastise you for making it immune FP, but based upon past votes, I think it was fairly evident that it would have gone next. Perhaps I'm wrong, but I think the results of this round so far lend credence to my opinion.

    Regardless, it doesn't matter. Part of the fun of the game is the complications that the immunity questions bring. It keeps it unpredictable and I like that.
