    A lot of my favourite parts don't have words - they're the "oooo-oooo" moments (and other vocal sounds!).

    WDIDWMH: When Don sings "I'll love you til death do us part" (Glenn's wooo-ooo is stunning)

    The breath sucking in OOTN, as well as the line "You've got desires, well I've got a few of my own!!"

    LROOE - I love the sense of vertigo when Don goes from singing about the blackness of an endless night, galaxies unfolding, and new worlds being born - then "I'd give anything to be there in your arms tonight" feels so immediate and almost as though I'm physically dropping from the stars into his arms (wishful thinking!).

    Already Gone - the "we never even know we have the key" line

    Doolin Dalton Desperado Reprise - the harmonies on the Desperado part.

    There are more...

    I love a first four guitar chords on In The City! They perk me up and get me going. Love that song!

    Something I thought of yesterday when I heard it: the opening chords of "Take It Easy." Maybe it's because I know what a great song is about to follow, but it lifts my spirits every time I hear it.

    My second fave part: I love it when he holds that "Saaavvve me" towards the end. Nice climactic moment!

    I have a few:

    1. The harmony vocals on "My Man" give me chills every time.

    2. When Glenn and Don sing together on "After the Thrill is Gone." Actually, the whole song is amazing, but that's my favorite part.

    3. I get similar chills when Don and Glenn trade vocals at the end of WDIDWMH. So passionate and heartfelt.

    3. Joe's guitar solo on LROOE. It reminds me of a fighter pilot coming in for a run. Someone above mentioned vertigo and when the vocal drops into the lead, yes, that description fits.

    I definitely agree, TT. The whole song just slays me, but I do like that part above the others.

    In Hotel California, I love when Don does that little grunt after the line, "She's got the Mercedes Benz"....I always listen for it at the concerts & he always does it, except the last time when I saw them in Nov. at the Beacon, he didn't do it, & I was upset

    Number one for me is the breath intake in One of These Nights. So very sexy!

    Next is the grunt in Get Over It (with arm upraised like in the HFO video. He's so cute in that!)

    I've really been digging How Long lately and I just love the "b-b-b-bye bye baby" part at the end.
