Eagles Song Survivor: The Long Run

[RudieCantFail]

I suspect some may have gotten guilt tripped over their strategizing.

I vote for The Long Run.

I'm not necessarily guilt tripped, but I was willing to let The Long Run go to save King of Hollywood. I really like The Long Run, and I didn't want to sacrifice it. The amount of votes it had at the time of my vote in that round was more than ITC and TSC, so I put the personal feelings aside for that song to try to save KoH, which ultimately failed. I wish In The City was still in the game instead of The Sad Cafe.

Well, that does makes sense, RCF. I agree with you about "In The City"; to me it's fresher and more original than "Sad Cafe", which I really like but is a bit like "After the Thrill Is Gone- Pt. 2." That the band was willing to use ITC from Joe's solo material says a lot about how much they liked it.

I wish In The City was still in the game instead of The Sad Cafe.

You and me both. I personally don't get the love for The Sad Cafe. To me it was never a shining moment of that album and it was never played live TTBOMK.

I'm voting for Heartache Tonight as I think TSC will go this round which is a shame as it is one of the best songs on this album along with TLR.

[sodascouts]

OK, I've decided - it was a hard one!

I cast my vote for I Can't Tell You Why.

An excellent song but something's gotta go.

[UK TimFan]

I vote for 'The long run'

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Okay - I really love all of the remaining songs, but I have to pick one so ...

I cast my vote for The Sad Cafe.

[Ive always been a dreamer]

The next song to be eliminated in The Long Run Survivor is The Sad Café. “The Sad Café”, I don't know why fortune smiles on some and let's the rest go free, but the tribe has spoken and you are free from this holy place. So some of your dreams didn't come true. Now, please walk down the tracks that run down the boulevard and leave the island immediately.

Voting for Round Eight begins now.

[WalshFan88]

YES!

Now down to the last 3.

I really, really love the title track. I think it's highly underrated. It really sums up the 70s Eagles.

I also really love ICTYW and Heartache Tonight. Heartache Tonight is a fun rocker, ICTYW is a smooth song I wouldn't normally go for but the redeeming part of it for me is the bluesy guitar solo by GF.

That said, something has to go.

I have to vote for:

I Can't Tell You Why

[Freypower]

Oh dear.

The Long Run
