I hate it sometimes, Brooke. I try my best to NOT go to Walmart.
Speaking of Walmart. Last week while trying to get my costume I ordered online and How Long came on. I was shocked to here it. I also hear Love Will Keep Us Alive somewhere. I don't remember.
A little while ago, Classic Vinyl played Best of My Love, and now Classic Rewind is playing Those Shoes. I'm sitting here smiling, my eyes closed, and thinking about being at one of the HOTE concerts.
Forgot to mention I heard "Victim Of Love" the other day on the radio on the way to the airport! Normally don't hear it on the radio.
Today I heard New Kid In Town while I was getting my teeth cleaned at the dentist's office. I can't really say that I heard it unexpectedly as it's rare that I don't hear an Eagles song there.
Seeing Joe strumming the opening chords of County Fair during the Foo Fighter documentary. That song has been dormant since he released it in 1974! (but not in my record collection) ;)
Well, I decided to go to the grocery store yesterday to try to beat the Thanksgiving crowd - it didn't work! I was in the store for over 1 1/2 hours. But, on the positive side is that while in there, I heard How Long, and then a little while later they played Lyin' Eyes. They both brought a big smile to my face!
Craig Wayne Boyd on The Voice tonight
Take it Easy
Cool! How did he do?
I'm watching Jobs, the documentary about Steve Jobs, and they just played "Life's Been Good" as he's putting together the first prototype home computer. Neat!
For the first time since it was released, almost exactly 40 years ago, Joe performed County Fair live, at his New York show last night!Quote:

I just heard a Glenn song on the radio I was not familiar with. The local radio station was playing requests for charity money and they played "Party Town"... I was not familiar with it - I think it might just be my favorite Glenn solo tune. I love how groovin' it is. Very Chuck Berry. I seriously love this song. It's a rocker. How I didn't know about it before but I didn't. Perhaps I heard it but never truly gave it any time.
My favorite line (it has to be said): "And told everybody they could kiss my @ss". Almost like Already Gone, it has a stick-it-to-the-man vibe and is an uplifting song.... I love all the lyrics though and the guitar work is quite nice.
This is one of my favorites by Glenn, too. I wish he would rock out more because he definitely can do it!
It's from No Fun Aloud. It is not a particular favourite of mine. He did do a version of it in Tokyo where he combined it with I Saw Her Standing There, which as far as I was concerned was the highlight.Quote:

Yeah I have. I guess I just never really gave it a critical or serious listen... I really like uptempo shuffle type songs and am a sucker for those so I really liked this one off the bat once I actually listened to it like I did Smuggler's Blues, The Heat Is On, You Belong To The City, etc.Quote:

Austin, have you ever listened to the entire No Fun Aloud album? If not, you may want to give it a listen. I have a feeling you would like a lot of it. :thumbsup:
Strictly Come Dancing (UK DWTS) opened with an "american smooth" danced to Heartache Tonight. It seemed an odd combination but in a way rather neat that the first time I've watched it this season, they had an Eagles tune.
I have it on vinyl but never listened to it! I'll do that tonight...Quote:

I was shocked that they didn't know who the Eagles were or that song. I think they end up not dancing to that song and used another song.Quote:

This morning I was driving to work and switched from the Christian music station I normally listen to (The Message) and put it on Classic Rewind. Journey was playing and I was thinking of switching to CD because I wanted to hear the Eagles, and I wanted to hear one that Don sings leads on. I was trying to decide which one I wanted to hear when Those Shoes came on the radio!
Don't you love it when you are listening to the radio thinking I wish they would play an EAGLES song & then it comes on! Makes me smile! :thumbsup:
I always love it when I'm on here and an Eagles song comes on the radio.
Just now as I mentioned in the 'what are you listening to' thread Hotel California came on the radio! Appropriate!
I had a wonderful drive home from work yesterday. Our classic rock station is paying tribute to Hotel California this week so they have been playing the album's songs plus some old interviews. Yesterday the interview was from @ 2007/2008 and Don H. said "there's a certain sound that we make together and I can't sound like that with anyone else."
I for one LOVE that sound! :hilarious:
Then I got to hear VOL, NKIT, WT, & HC. That commute just flew by!! :thumbsup:
I love that radio station!
Was listening to Classic Vinyl on the way home from work and they played Funk #49. I didn't care for the next song, so I changed it to Classic Rewind, and they were playing Life's Been Good!!
Well - It's hard to complain about being double-Joe'd that's for sure! :thumbsup:
I loved it! Today they played Dirty Laundry, which was great, and right now as I was reading Dreamer's reply SiriusXM Holly is playing Please Come For Christmas. Of course, they say it's by The Eagles and not Eagles.
A couple of days ago I heard Please Come Home For Christmas in a supermarket - sadly it was not the Eagles version. I can't say I was a fan of it, I thought it was rather histrionic (it was a female singer - couldn't recognise the voice though). Ultimately it reinforced how much I like Don Henley's more understated vocal, I think one of PCHFC's greatest virtues is its organic sound and lack of gimmicks which I find quite refreshing compared to a lot of other modern Christmas songs.
One little story I do have is that the first time I ever heard Busy Being Fabulous was in a store - I recognised the voice as Don's and could hear the backing vocals and guitars which gave it the stamp of an Eagles song. A pleasant surprise, good to hear one of the less well known tunes (where I come from the main two radio staples seem to be Lyin' Eyes and Life In The Fast Lane, I've heard those several times each).
On my first day back to work this week after a christmas, new years and birthday staycation, I was awoken by my alarm with the radio station playing New Kid in Town! I was like aww what a nice surprise and a great way to brighten a day when I didn't want to be getting up at 5am!
I love it when that happens, too, T&H! Makes the start to the day so much better!
sure does Brooke! :)
I have an Eagles CD in my alarm clock so I get to hear it every morning. ;)
That's a good idea. I might be less cranky and resentful in the mornings if I woke up to a refreshing blast of "Life in the Fast Lane."Quote:

Then he laughed and said it was a nice thing about the Eagles, always full of humor.
I guess he doesn't know that One of These Nights was merely next on the setlist! At any rate, he followed this up with playing LITFL.
Funny!
Watching Breakfast Television & they as about to interview a race car driver. Of course the segment opened with LITFL.
I'm watching a hockey game Los Angeles Kings at Colorado Avalanche...in Denver...they're playing "Get Over It"...in the arena!!...I thought I was hearing things...lol
