    I love the end of Pretty Maids All In A Row when they're doing the "Ooooohs" and then Joe joins in. The blend of the voices together there is goose bump inducing.

    I love Don's entire lead vocal in the song LROOE, particularly the 'ghost of Caesar' verse. It's so passionate. I obviously love the parts where Glenn sings with him.

    I love my 'Shakespearean' lines. 'Let's kill all the lawyers' sung by Don with Glenn echoing him, and 'so hungry & so lean' sung by Glenn who is not necessarily referring to James Dean here if you get my drift.

    The slide guitar at the start of Good Day In Hell; the song is as close as the band got to sounding like the Rolling Stones.

    The harmonies in Centre Of The Universe which are slightly reminiscent of the Beatles' magnificent Because.

    Somebody; it is an absolute cracker of a vocal performance. This includes the harmonies.

    I've never considered this before, but yes, I can hear the similarities, especially the 'Ahhhh, ahhhhhh, ahhhhhhh.'

    And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
    It's a perfect occupation for me.

    I love Don moaning Umm Shoes in Those Shoes.


    We were listening to The Last Resort yesterday. Hubby was like which one is that? He has a great distinctive voice.


    His current favorite Moment in the Eagles is Hole in the World. Says it can mean a LOT of things. Until we learn to love one another. He loves that line.

    in the song "already gone" I love the verse:

    So often times it happens that we live our lives in chains
    And we never even know we have the key


    on the Hell Freezes Over version of Desperado, I love how the audience
    cheers just at the right moment at the piano intro, and then quiets down before Don starts singing. I also love the line "it may be raining, but there's a rainbow above you"

    also love on the intro to Tequila Sunrise on HFO when Glenn talks about the band not breaking up, but taking a 14 year vacation and the audience laughs.

    I have more, have to think of what they are.

    we watched the History DVD today during dinner.

    Currently, I am loving the harmony of "No More Walks in the Woods"


    tried to find it on you-tube but have had no luck
