Eagles Song Survivor: "Eagles" LP

[Ive always been a dreamer]

I'm going to repeat what I said a while ago about my feelings of this album in general. I like all of the songs on the album, but I do think this is one of the band’s more uneven albums. To me about half of the songs are really excellent whereas the other half are just pleasant, but nothing exceptional about them. Still, it was a pretty impressive debut album for the guys and none of the songs are bad. However, I must say that the chirps in Earlybird do contain the only truly cringe-worthy moment in any Eagles song for me. But since the rest of the song is pleasant, the chirps don't ruin the song for me. But it is still my least favorite song on the album. If it needed my vote to eliminate it, I would vote for it. So since I don't need to vote for Earlybird, I'll join PM and vote for my next least favorite ...

I cast my vote for Take the Devil.

Only a couple of people have explained why they are voting for MOUAS.

Glenn was very young when he wrote it. If he had sung it it would perhaps have worked better; perhaps it's a bit maudlin but the harmonies on the 'love was here today' part are really nice, and as for 'I will sing you far away'.... I think that's beautiful. Soda even made a wallpaper featuring that line, even though Glenn doesn't sing the song. I think people are being slightly harsh because it's in waltz tempo and I have to say, that's why I'm not a big fan of Saturday Night or Hollywood Waltz. Just putting in a word for the song.

I'm not crazy about the arrangement, but Randy's voice is beautiful, and I agree with you about the harmonies. I'm trying to imagine Glenn singing it. I think I might like it. The arrangement is going to kill it for me soon.

I'm sure glad I didn't do Desperado survivor. I think it would have killed me.

[sodascouts]

If you listen hard, you can hear Glenn's harmony on the "Love was here today" verse. That can give you an idea about how he might have sounded on the whole thing.

I too think Randy sounds great on it, but I'm not sure why he sang lead on a song solely written by Glenn. That's an Eagles Mystery.

Most Of Us Are Sad gets my vote this time.

[EagleLady]

I guess I have to be persistent and Vote off Most of Us are Sad again

[Freypower]

I will again vote for Tryin' which is my least favourite track on the album.
