Eagles Song Survivor: The Long Run

[shunlvswx]

Definitely I Can't Tell You Why. I really never liked that song.

I vote for The Long Run. As with FP never seen why it is meant to be so good. It's the epitome of their tiredness, resentment and lack of ideas that marred the second half of their original run. I get why Don Henley presumably likes it so much, and why in later years it became their 'theme' song, but it does absolutely nothing for me. I'd go as far to say I'd have happily have foregone it when I saw them with HOTE, and I'm glad Don H. saw fit not to revive it for his latest tour. The two other tracks remaining are far superior and far more deserving of winning.

And now I've got my resentment for The Long Run out of the way, I'll come back to what I said a while ago. I am aware tactical voting happens, as I said I myself have done it this Survivor with In the City early on, however this time it did seem particularly full-on, all guns blazing, do or die with regards to what were the first to fall after TDS/TJ/TGDWNF. I wasn't offended by it (I'm never offended by anything FWIW), I didn't feel particularly annoyed by it even, it just seemed a bit full-on and that dented my enjoyment of it somewhat, and combined with having an absolutely awful evening I couldn't bite my tongue. I apologise if what I said offended, upset or mortally wounded anybody, that wasn't my intention, it's just I believe in always telling the truth as I see it, and sometimes that doesn't work out well! Now, if we could all vote The Long Run to save I Can't Tell You Why...

Cheers

I completely agree.

Not voting yet, I have to really think about this...

Love the guitar from Glenn in I Can't Tell You Why, the vocals, writing seemed rushed, but that was where they were at at the time

The Long Run is ok, like that they opened with it in Farewell 1, love the sentiment of hangin in and hangin on

Heartache Tonight, well Glenn at his rockin best

What to do, what to do???

I vote The Long Run. The remaining songs are 2 of my all time favourite Songs.

[UK TimFan]

I vote 'The long run'.

[scottside]

I also vote for "The Long Run." It's kind of predictable that the last three standing would be the hits.

[DivineDon]

Definitely I Can't Tell You Why. I really never liked that song.

At last. Thanks, Shun. I Can't Tell You Why

(I've a feeling I won't be voting anymore)

[AlreadyGone95]

I vote for I Can't Tell You Why. I've never been a big fan of the song.
