    First of all, the opening chords of Take It Easy. Always brings a smile to my face!

    Also, I have always loved all the other lines that have already been mentioned here! There are just too many!

    That is my favourite line in my favourite Eagles song, so I can only agree.

    Of course there is "It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford slowin' down to take a look at me". One of my all time favourite lines from my all time favourite song! I love the opening chords too, Brooke!

    I have many favourites like those mentioned, and I assume solo songs are allowed too.

    One is the way Glenn growl out 'Somebody' several times in the song of that title. Particularly when I say him sing it live - sent shivers up my spine

    Also in AG, 'You can see the stars but still not see the light' as well as the intro to this, and the intro to 'How Long'.

    I also love several parts of PEF, the way he sings 'sparkling earrings'. And of course I melt when he sings 'I wanna sleep with you....' etc. I love it!

    That line is sung by Glenn Frey, as is the whole song.

    Love how Don takes his voice up a notch in that lyric.

    Another of mine is the opening of Out of Control:

    'Oh my don't that sky look spacious, with the stars all shining down'

    The song itself might be a bit shouty but that's a beautiful line and quite true of what the Old West was like, the baron plains reflected in the sky...
